I just KNEW she'd eventually wind up with that handsome, too polite gentleman that threw up on her in the diner near the beginning of the movie. I could just feel it. The ending just left you guessing whether this poor nice guy that had some obvious very bad breaks was able to change her or did she mess him up further? My guess is the latter. They definitely left you open for a Part II.
This woman and her daughter were obviously heading down skid row BEFORE the 2008 financial meltdown. And that realtor (that they made into the worst stereotype from hell imaginable) did not "make" her sign that contract to purchase that home. She knew, as well as I, that she couldn't afford it AT ALL on a diner waitress wage, especially with the repairs and maintenance it obviously needed. At least she got off with him quite a few times though because that's what meant the most to her). I sold real estate for years and talked people OUT of buying houses for various reasons, one being my sister who fell in love with a hooptie of a house with the Better Homes & Gardens magazine and fresh flowers in a vase near the entrance. "Give them a full price offer!" my Mother shouted to her....during the beginning of the housing bubble I advised them. I suggested offering 1/2 the asking price and start from there. 16 years later, that house is worth 1/2 of what she paid for it. Women will continue to be stupid, blame men for all of their woes and take no personal responsibility until hell freezes over.
If this movie were made in 1963, I'd be all in..... but I'm not buying any if it. It was free on Peacock or sumpthin' like that.
I just hope that tramp didn't mess up that poor naive gentleman's life further.
