Small town life satirized., 3 January 2006
9/10
Author: daniel-j-doughty from United States

Great Canadian film. It's all about small town life and how you have to fight to get out if that life doesn't fit you. And it's about teenage catholic issues. Who's preggers, who's gotten an abortion, who's f^(*&ing who, why there's no space in the house for more kids, etc. The leading actress Liane Balaban did a really good job of it all. She reminds me of Natalie Portman. If you're not sentimental or need action then I wouldn't bother. But if you find humor in the daughter of an incarcerated boxer knocking out all the boys in town then you'll dig this fun little movie. And oh yeah, it deals with young women actually have physical desires...which seems to be taboo or something.
