Diane Keaton's Country Life in Baby Boom - Did the Cinematography Sell It?

Okay, film buffs, cinephile_sarah here! I just re-watched Baby Boom (1987), and I'm curious about something specifically relating to the cinematography... So, J.C. Wiatt (Diane Keaton) goes from power suit wearing, super-successful career woman in NYC to… well, basically a Vermont farmer trying to sell applesauce. The whole premise is pretty wild, right? I always wonder if the visuals really hammered home that contrast and transformation effectively. Specifically, think about the scenes in Vermont. Did the use of natural light, the framing of the countryside, and the camera angles make that transition seem believable, or did it feel kinda forced? I felt like some shots felt too… well, Hallmark-y. Like picturesque Vermont postcards rather than a real, struggling rural existence. I think the film could have benefitted from a bit more grit in the second act, maybe some less-polished framing to emphasize the challenges she faced. And did the color palette shift effectively to reflect her changing circumstances? New York felt very… gray and corporate (which is totally understandable), but Vermont felt too… perfect? Maybe I just want it to be less polished. I know that's picky. What do y'all think? Am I overthinking it, or do the visuals play a bigger role in believably selling that huge life change than I'm giving it credit for?
