Movie Haiku:A young woman struggles to find herself after her husband dies in a traffic accident. Traylor received a SPIRIT AWARD nomination as Lead Actress for her pitch-perfect performance. Valerie has a tart tongue & a sardonic manner, but you never doubt her intelligence. Starts grim, but wins you over.
