Storyline
Featured review
Accomplished drama doc.
This one is a good argument for the British model that Grierson's NFB brought to Canada. It can compare with the early Zinneman features, which were being made by Hollywood at the time, with it's attention to disturbed behavior that does not make the characters dis-functional or totally unsympathetic.
Losing her father at an early age makes the little girl over dependent on her mother and feeling she has to compete for her attention with the new family. She channels this into academic success, which gives her some status in life but leaves her isolated.
Feature standard production with more realistically observed characters. It proved a false start, not the direction the Canadian fiction feature would follow when it arrived twenty years later, after the French New wave.
