Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at fans of a well-timed joke and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Leaves you with something to think about.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.

- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.

- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
A comedy drama about a few days in the lives of a group of "working girls" in Reno, Nevada. “The Ranch” is a legally operated brothel that operates under the careful watch of state health inspectors (who insist on weekly medical check-ups) and the semi-benevolent leadership of Mary, the manager. While the women on staff don't have to dodge the law like their comrades elsewhere, that doesn't mean they don't have their problems.
