Review of The Girl (2012) by Jessica T — 29 Aug 2013
Told within the milieu of immigration, David Riker's "The Girl" centres on a troubled, young Texan mother trying to regain custody of her son. The film's elegant simplicity is made stirring by Abbie Cornish's ("Bright Star," "Stop-Loss") soulful performance.
Her quiet resolve and nonverbal expression of her character's anguish and earnestness captivates as she discovers her capacity for love and forbearance.
