The first audtion of Norma Jean for the part of Nell...Ana broke my hart. It tore me to pieces. Ana did this a few times. The accent, yeah, yeah, i don't care. This Girl just carries the entire 2.42 h film. Just like we watch the marylin movies for marylin so did i watch this one for Ana. And not just her. Without the superb cast this movie would have been nothing but a series off meaningless artsy picture. There is not much dialogue or script what results in a Dreary feeling. The first 25 minutes are intense. After that it becomes slow and dreary. I just kept watching for the outstanding cast.
Congratulations to the writer, director and Kirby .for the 20-25 first minutes if this movie. Truly outstanding work. No doubt, cinema perfection.
Unfortunatley this can not be said for the following minutes. The only caracter that got my empathy for the rest off the movie was the accused midwife.
My own sister became handicapped at the hands of a doctor, in a hospital, that stubbornly refused to do a c section with a breeched baby.
I know Medical incompetence when i see it. And this was not an incompetent midwife. Being put on trial for doing everything humanly possiblemust have been devastating. I was more jnterested in her story then that off the cold, manipulative and cruel main caracters.
But again the first 25 minutes are powerfull, perfect, brilliant and will no doubt become a must see .

Apple runs away from her drug addicted, abusive mother in search for her biological father. She finds him as a rich wall street broker with a perfect family. He accepts her but when it turns out she's pregnant and wants to keep the baby her stephmother kicks her out.
This is basically and add in favor off decent housing for abused teenage mothers. It is a cry for help to advance the shamefully lacking social system off the USA. I am in favor off that.
What i am not in favor off is rushed story telling, cliché, one dimensional characters, grotesque yellow teeth,...
The actors did their very best with a bad script . And that is the reason why i passend it. And off course because off the message. But on the whole, as a movie, this picture fails.
