I have never lived like this in my life so it was an eye opener for me and I'm 86. Great acting on everyone's part, It was hard to believe that children of this age can actually act like this...good and bad situtations. I have heard many times from girl friends ...just friends in general that they had a rough childhood and again I can't relate....I had a good life. The gentleman that played the manager, a terrific actor, stayed in character, a warm heart . Thank you, A great movie for young women on the run and their children don't have a chance in this world!
