adapt from sam shepard play and this movie retain many play like element such a a relatively fixed setting ( a roadside 50 motel in the southwest ) and extensive and intriguing dialogue . a woman may be hound by a man eddie ( play by sam shepard ) . she try to hide from him in the out of the way motel and but he find her . the film explore the history of their relationship and mainly from their childhood and that have lead them to this point . it very easy to feel sympathy for the character and to understand that their dysfunctional present relationship be a result of past event out of their control . we mainly watch them fight and make up and fight and make up and so on . one image that stand out in my mind and be of eddie hauling may over his shoulder kicking and screaming and take her somewhere she doesn not want to go . the soundtrack be also perfect soulful country with vocal by a less known artist sandy rogers . she have this country doll voice that almost yodel at some point in the album . this be the kind of movie that will stay lodge in some part of your brain or soul . in other word and go see it .
