Amazing movie, amazing actors.. I loved Allison and how she played her role so good.. and the mother so creepy and weird..well done by Michelle.. I really was touched by the frustrationg Asrtid went through, the contradictions in her head.. how she tried to belong everytime.. how she adapted a certain style each time.. how she struggled.. it all ways to express anger and pain..in many forms..

I just think there are some details missing int he movie.. like they tried to shorten things to make it fit the time of a movie.. like while I was watchign the movie I was like hmmm what happened?? why did they skip this or that? why didnt they show us this or that.. it would have been better if they showed more drama more scenes more pain..

It breaks the heart to know that there are real people suffering like this out there in this cruel world! :(.

Liked alot of quotes in this movie such as:

"I dont know how to express that being with someone so dangerous was the last time that I felt safe".

"No matter how much she's damaged me, no matter how flawed she is, I know my mother loves me.".
