Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

sistersylvia I remember this film when it came out on VHS in the UK... other people have commented on the gross marketing of the DVD by the American distributors; they are absolutely right! This film is in fact a feminist film (although directed by a man) about prostitution in the old West and the exploitation of, mainly immigrant, women. The way it deals with the "work" reminded me of "Working Girls", Lizzie Borden's film about the reality of prostitution. The lives of these women had much in common with those women today from eastern Europe and the third world who are victims of trafficking. The reaction to this film is always going to be mixed... a lot of people prefer the romantic view of prostitutes as "tarts with hearts"... but this is groundbreaking in its treatment of the subject and was probably ahead of its time. What really makes it stand out though is the incredible feel for time and place, the touching camaraderie between the women and the fantastic acting from the cast who all give brave and uncompromising performances. I really hope this film stays "out there".

DonVitoCorleone If you are a sick, sadist.This has to be one of the worst films ever made. Luckily I watched this on Sky in the UK and didn't actually pay to see it because I would be in tears thinking of the money I had wasted to see this.There is no plot, no good acting and noting happens from start to finish.Please I beg you to stay clear of this film

brettster2000 Oh my gawd!!! The only reason this isn't listed as the worst movie on IMDB is that few will admit to seeing it (only 29 votes as of this writing) and fewer have lived through it to tell the horrible tale!! It's like watching a dead horse decay in the desert sun, only it's less fun and has a much worse smell! Rented on the premise of "whores in the old west, how bad could it be?" a friend and I sat stunned as this story stagnated on the screen, much like someone watching their own entrails slowly being removed; but then they might CARE about the ending. This film is so depressing it could drive Disney characters to a life of heroin and suicide. It makes Deerhunter and Apocalypse Now look like Saturday Morning cartoons. If you are ever forced to watch this, plead with your captors to kill you in any manor, or give them whatever they want, turn on your country, kinfolk and God, but DON'T watch this movie!! P.S. the one person that gave this movie a "10" rating must just be a sadistic madman who wants to lure you into his twisted, cruel world.

Åsa This film shows the real thing, how it probably was working at a small-town bordello during late 19th century. Nothing fancy at all. This is what it really was like. I liked the unusual structure of the film, the status quo-feeling that is so much more real compared to the basic -beginning-build up-the hero's back on top- structure. This is a great film! Unfortunately, it's an acquired taste.
