Reviews
Purely Joyful Movie!
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
