From the Front Row
Ms. Qualley’s performance, and those of some of the supporting cast, notably Morgan Saylor and Rebecca Dayan, convey the difficulties these women face.

Rating: 3/5 --
That succeeds best when it focuses on the spiritual journey of its young protagonist. But what might make it most interesting to watch is Melissa Leo's fiery performance as the brittle Reverend Mother.
