Ruth Wallsgrove Spare Rib I didn't feel I had witnessed any real hardship. It all looked very easy to be a single mother in the Depression, if you were a nice woman who smiled in a wholesome way. But it's a lie. Sep 22, 2021 Full Review Augusto Martínez Torres El Pais (Spain) The movie lacks personality and appealing actors.
