You know when you start watching a movie and get the feeling that you've watched it before? This was it. Set in the 60/70's a woman and her son goes to live in a isolate place to escape her ex-husband. Right from the start you get the feeling that something is wrong with the scenery and interaction between her son and the mother. The conversations between characters don't add up and you get glimpses from time to time... The all lady in pond and the son seeing it, the interaction between her and the landlords that talk as the house is falling apart while her seeing all beautiful, the job, the school and lack of interaction between the child and the colleagues.
Christini Ricci did a good job. But as I said I've seen this type of trope dozen times. The boy also was not that interesting actor and at that age they could have found someone better.. hey but at least it will grow.
