This is one of my all time top ten favorite movies. I find it frustrating that it has never been released on VHS or DVD. It looks at the personal struggle of a woman in a no win situation and her serendipitous but temporary solace - and the ultimate and inevitable return to her life struggle. It is so personal it is universal. Unbelievable it has not been more widely available.
