THIS IS A DRAMA. Why do people insist on billing dramas as comedies?! The three stars are for the acting and scene sets. Much of this film was copied from To Wong Foo, thanks for everything! Julie Newmar. The dressmaker, the costumes and beautiful dresses, the weird towns people. Let's not forget death....three deaths in all for this movies....how can it be a comedy?! I really hate when I want to laugh and end up watching a drama that was billed as a comedy.....and is not funny. If you want drama this is an okay film but if you want to laugh look elsewhere. Kate is great as always and Judy Davis is fantastic! The ideas stolen from To Wong Foo are just too obvious for this to be a great film.

I loved this movie, it's very peculiar...I was completely blindsided by the, strong woman, small town, chic, murder mystery, it quickly turned into! The trailer makes it a very obvious drama...but there are funny moments and very sad moments, I laughed, and cried. Cried. Like a baby! Honestly, Kate Winslet is amazing. Seriously though, I was just as grief stricken today after watching this, as I was at 12, when I saw Titanic for the first time. It's really odd, but worth watching!!

I like Kate winslet. She's a great actress and did this movie justice. Great performance. However I took 2 stars off for the very bad acting by the other actors.
