I wasn't going to even make a post for this because I had such a tough time with this film. But that poster slaps so I did anyway#A difficult and often unpleasant film. I wish I could dismiss it as exploitation trash but frustratingly it's.. It's kind of good? I'm not#Making sense but this film is confusing. It's hard to reconcile that such a sordid and unpleasant subject has been treated with quite so#Much subtlety and intelligence (at least for the most part). Forbes' performance is key to what works about this film; she's brilliant in a#Highly challenging role and manages to make her character the embodiment of naive innocence without ever being foolish#Idk this is a dark and seedy film which is actually mostly shot in a very discrete and sensitive way..
