I did, and in my memory do still, find it wanting.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926347286766677626.post-48447465501826405452018-09-19T10:54:01.366-07:002018-09-19T10:54:01.366-07:00I did miss a couple of things she said but decided...I did miss a couple of things she said but decided that if I was an American I am sure I would have understood her. I liked the whole ending scenario, the early breakfast etc. I also did not have any problem with the other inmates where I thought it was made clear that they were all there for the same reason. The assistant to the woman in charge was also her brother. I am not sure whether you noticed that. The part of the film I found least satisfactory were the flash backs/dreams which I found difficult to establish what they were, dreams or something that had really happened. All in all though I thought it was an excellent film.

I don't normally mind endings that hang open, only this one came rather suddenly at a point I hadn't been expecting. I can live with it, though.

I thought it was done well and unless you wanted to sit through three hours I cannot see how the end could have followed through and let you know what happened next. I liked them in the back of pick-up going off into the sunset kind of thing, happy and joking with the passing motorcycle. A good film and a few chuckles from the audience at the lines of the woman in charge of the "college".

I've read that Nicole Kidman has a film, based on a true story,about this same topic regarding her gay son.<br />Hopefully that might be a better film.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302478126147924237noreply@blogger.com
