The cinematography is undeniably terrific. However, found the story a bit boring and draggy. Maybe they dragged out too much out of what was essentially a short story. But there were poignant moments like when Alma found out regarding her hubby and his best buddy. Or when she related how she tied a note to the end of Ennis' fishing rod to ask him to bring back fish as he never did over all the years of his "fishing expeditions" with his buddy.
Maybe because I can't truly appreciate the love story between the guys. But was rather sad for the women in the story. Alma may seem more docile than Lureen, but she was the one who was brave enough to make the decision to halt the marriage while the latter "soldiered" on ignoring a marriage which could be done over the phone quote unquote Jack.
