Didn't last 15 minutes...

The parents fight during their girl's anniversary, the father scraps the mother's car, the girl gets bullied at school, then start smoking cigarettes and weed, then takes cocaine, and has unprotected sex. That's the first 20 minutes. I don't know what the rest looks like, I felt there was no point.The car crash was unnecessary, making it look like a cheap (typical?) American movie (what's with destroying cars in movies? You get money from jeep for crashing cars? Seriously...)It has some very good actors, but the acting is so bad, the issue must be with the director.If you like to wallow in misery, you will love this...

Depressing Drama

Kelly Depeault is the only reason for the four star rating. She is excellent in the lead role as the disaffected sixteen year-old daughter of a pair of mismatched parents. They fight with each other for the entire film.Catherine falls in with a drug taking crowd at her high school in Quebec and being a complete non drug taker all of my life, I could not relate in any way to the party animals in the movie.One hour and forty five minute of watching teenagers snort meth and pcp is not exactly my idea of a night of entertainment.Not one of the characters had any redeeming qualities and I did not care what happened to any of them.I hope for better things in the future for Ms. Depeault.
