Interesting film, but unworthy subject
30 October 2006 | by (Melbourne, Australia) – See all my reviews

While this was an interesting and unusual story, I'm not sure the subject was worth the effort. She reminded me a little of the Conway con-man depicted in Colour Me Kubrick, though perhaps not as criminally inclined as Conway.

The start of the film was very irritating. The cuts of different speakers were very abrupt and the animations were very distracting from the core story. Fortunately they decreased as the film progressed.

I found myself totally not caring for the subject. She appeared to have no scruples, cared for no-one but herself, and was prepared to do anything to get in with people who were not worth knowing. I really felt for her poor, unwanted son.
