Radheyan Simonpillai Globe and Mail Stone handles big and difficult emotions on the gentlest terms. Jul 27, 2023 Full Review Wilson Kwong Film Inquiry Stone has strong storytelling sensibilities, and has created a narrative experience that’s grounded in honesty, and never lacking in empathy.

Tom F Frequently touching but largely forgettable story about a girl figuring stuff out. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/23/24 Full Review Ashley N The movie is captivating and interesting. It feels authentic. I very much enjoyed how scenes flowed easily from past to present to past and how roles were often reversed or questioned. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review KB B This was such an engaging movie. I couldn't believe how much smarter even the young Cea was than the useless Mom. I felt so sorry for Cea. It's worth the watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Chiara F A poetic movie about the life in the wild, and the challenge of growing up. Robert Carlyle nailed his role also this time. Sadly this film is hard to find, I luckily found it on a airplane. Worth watching. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/26/24 Full Review Thomas C Fascinating, heartbreaking and beautifully written and acted. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review david c An interesting movie, Good acting, strong performance. Somewhat disturbing story. The Ending was a let down, as this movie is based on a true story, the movie closes on the girl taking a flight... The true story, her becoming a fairly successful model despite her upbringing, I dont know why they would not have included the smallest piece of that, to give the story a stronger ending... I do not feel the ending did the film justice. If you watch it, do uour own research to find some happy closure. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/24 Full Review Read all reviews
