this be a film which should be see by anybody interested in and effect by and or suffer from an eat disorder . it be an amazingly accurate and sensitive portrayal of bulimia in a teenage girl and it cause and it symptom . the girl be play by one of the most brilliant young actress work in cinema today and alison lohman and who be later so spectacular in where the truth lie . i would recommend that this film be show in all school and a you will never see a good on this subject . alison lohman be absolutely outstanding and and one marvel at her ability to convey the anguish of a girl suffer from this compulsive disorder . if barometer tell u the air pressure and alison lohman tell u the emotional pressure with the same degree of accuracy . her emotional range be so precise and each scene could be measure microscopically for it gradation of trauma and on a scale of rise hysteria and desperation which reach unbearable intensity . mare winningham be the perfect choice to play her mother and and do so with immense sympathy and a range of emotion just a finely tune a lohman . together and they make a pair of sensitive emotional oscillator vibrate in resonance with one another . this film be really an astonishing achievement and and director katt shea should be proud of it . the only reason for not see it be if you be not interested in people . but even if you like nature film best and this be after all animal behaviour at the sharp edge . bulimia be an extreme version of how a tormented soul can destroy her own body in a frenzy of despair . and if we do not sympathise with people suffer from the depth of despair and then we be dead inside .
