With this film, Sarah Polley joins the club of world-class directors. In a film that could have been way too talky, there is humor and pathos; there is character development; there is thoughtful movement and brilliant timing. The great acting and directing make this a truly delightful, emotional film to watch. If that weren't enough, it explores all the topics: religion, power, gender, rape, and virtual slavery.
