Yes, I like the other characters. I thought the scene where her father returns home was moving, extremely moving.
I'm not sure how many still follow Emma Watson in films since Harry Potter. She has an interesting roles in films for almost two decades, to the point where she wants to just get back in films to be in a groupie again like she did in Harry Potter. Not that I'm encouraging catch up or anything. I would say it is nice that the other actresses make the movie what it is. I also think the setting of the film is fitting since the American Country setting is popular now a days. I saw it recently. Last month.
