Is the woman whose adult capabilities are a thin veneer over hysteria a rebellious threat to patriarchal expectations, or a perfect product thereof? Go to Full Review

This is a refreshingly invigorating and unvarnished character study, thrumming with anxious life. Bravo! Go to Full Review

Priya F 01/30/2024 Wild, funny and touching. See more wkbrannigan B 08/04/2023 What sets this apart is its sense of reality. Her's is the song of the everywoman, full of frailties and with courage tested in the face of life's anxieties and failures. The movie itself is courageous, determined not to sell out to dramatic rescues of the heroine.

Nevertheless, the story has many "commonplaces" and it is somehow empty sometimes. See more Emilio T @MilloTPue 12/27/2019 Between 2.5 and 3 stars. It is a well study of a character, but the pity is not much more than that. See more Read all reviews
