Reviews

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
