i watch this movie also and and altho it be very well do and i find it a heartbreaker and would not recommend this to woman who have small child . the terror on this mother face when she see her child about to be run over by a train be truly heartbreaking . and the sad thing be internally she die . eventually she go back to the applacian mountain . all the money in the world which she make from make doll do not conceal the grief she have . i remember her desperate face a she pull money out of her clothes to try to have her child heal . i be surprise this movie take place in detroit and because when i watch it i think for sure the people have come to cincinnati and ohio . this also be a route for the poor from the mountain .
