What does one take away from this unexpected film? You adore Audrey with her flawless complexion and perfectly symmetric facial features, you admire Shirley with her dramatic expressions of sincerity, you despise a child that is evil beyond her years, you want to strangle an annoying aunt who allows a school to be destroyed, i.e. many disjointed emotions.
The one key element I found to be treated with great disdain is the revelation of how one discovers their true sexual identity. What was in that secret book the girls were squealing about? How do we move from inspiration to education with such limited treatment of the real subject?
I found this script to be alarming in that it was as unexpected as Shirley's discovery. Heartbreaking to see such a pureness in character be defamed as to consider suicide a single option. This is no theatre drama, this is reality current day.
