The Girl in the Park

THE GIRL IN THE PARK (2007) - Sept. 11, 2007
Sigourney Weaver gives a really good performance in this film about a mother who loses her three-year-old daughter in a park. Flash forward to 16 years later, and she's still completely messed up. The bulk of the film is about a possibly unhealthy friendship she strikes up with a young woman. The film is well made and entertaining throughout, though I'm not sure I buy that the loss of a daughter could mess a person up so thoroughly, even 16 years later (she's pretty much insane). Other than that, it was pretty good. ***
