I'm glad I saw it, but expected MORE when I read critic reviews who were all IN. It's definitely a fun walk down memory lane to adolescence in the 1970's, but its relevance today escapes me, and I'm surprised it ever got made for that reason. I compliment the young actress, who played Margaret. Other actors, like Rachel McAdams and Kathy Bates were under-challenged in their roles. Plot mixture of adolescent angst & religious choice was awkward, so neither got the attention it deserved. And, Kathy Bates character as Jewish grandmother was stereotypical and heavy-handed. She's a better actor when she plays closer to home. Go see if nothing better.
