I just loved the scene when...


Moze is drunkenly asleep and Addie sneaks into their hotel bathroom with her beloved cigar box and takes out her "treasures" and procedes to drown herself in her mother's Evening in Paris and try on her dime store baubles, only to compare herself with her flapper mother (vis a vis their photo together) somewhat dispairingly.

I love the scenes with Trixie.

"You owe me $200" scene in the diner is great.

They are arguing in the car about running out of bibles!

I loved Addie waiting for Moze on the corner, the wind in her hair as she turns down the street hearing him whisper, "Addie...Addie.."

I agree with the poster about arguing about the bibles. I also enjoyed when Addie pulled her first con, and the money exchange trick at the fair, and last but not least, the ms. trixie scenes, especially when she got rid of her.

I felt a little sorry for Imogene, the way she waved goodbye to Addie sort of lonely-like. I don't believe Imogene would go back home like they planned. She said before they had hard times as it was. She probably stuck it out with Ms. Trxie, if Trxie didn't figure out their scheme and fire her.
