Curiosidades
According to writer and director Kasi Lemmons, her cut differed greatly from the final cut released to theaters, which eliminated a major character from the movie.

Pifias
After the Batiste family learns with relief that the boy who was hit by the bus wasn't Poe and Mrs. Batiste tells Eve to go upstairs and tell Cisely that they can all go outside, a boom mic is visible at the top of the frame.

Citas
Mozelle Batiste Delacroix: Life is filled with goodbyes, Eve, a million goodbyes, and it hurts every time. Sometimes, I feel like I've lost so much, I have to find new things to lose. All I know is, there must be a divine point to it all, and it's just over my head. That when we die, it will all come clear. And then we'll say, "So that was the damn point." And sometimes, I think there's no point at all, and maybe that's the point. All I know is most people's lives are a great disappointment to them and no one leaves this earth without feeling terrible pain. And if there is no divine explanation at the end of it all, well... that's sad.

Versiones alternativas
The Criterion Collection Blu-ray release includes both the theatrical cut (running 108 minutes 45 seconds) and the director's cut (running 115 minutes 33 seconds).

8/10

A heavy but gripping film.

The first time I saw this film I rated it 8; the 2nd time it got a 9. There is much visual beauty in the film: a lovely, serene setting and many gorgeous women. The film focussed on the devastation caused by a father who could not resist beautiful women even though he loved his family. As the film ended, I was left counting the number of people who would have considerable guilt to deal with but the end was, nevertheless, very satisfying.
