Alice Fades Away is a interesting movie to watch while we, like the main character, are semi trapped by circumstances beyond our control. I very much enjoyed the pull between the past and how that had led us to the present along with the fear for the future. Alice is an interesting character because she is not what you would expect from a 50s housewife and it becomes apparent that she knows this as well, never quite fitting into her husbands world. This movie does a good job, in my opinion, presenting us with the realistic options that she would have had and leaves us with the clear sense that none of them are good.
