![]() In this movie though, perhaps this is my opinion, but I found the characters a little too silly to take seriously, and I couldn't relate to them as much as I could with their situation. Though sadly, like many movies based on a true story, we come to realize the conflict soaring above the characters. And just like the movie Marguerite, it had quite a bit of comedy, except that here, it seems more emphasized. Meryl Streep again acts very well here as always. it had decent characters and a great situation at play. This movie was very respectable for what it was.

A lesser actor could have made a comedic buffoon of her performance but this is, after all, Meryl Streep, and she strides the delicate balance between a comical and serious performance with the scalpel that only great artists can achieve. Streep who portrays her character with grace and dignity amidst the jeers of her audiences and, through it all, evokes a compassion and sympathy to the viewer.
