Oh my God
Oh my God. This was a powerful movie. Having worked child welfare in rural Georgia; I could totally relate to the frustration that Robert's principal was feeling. I got so angry at that grandmonster during the "therapeutic holding" incident, I wanted to drive to Eupora and whip Mamaw's ass. I was very skeptical of the mother, Robanna, but had to admit that the boys seemed much more at ease in her home. The ending was a lot better than I expected. Still though, I cried through the whole thing. That boy has a very hard life ahead of him. His face will be on my mind for a long time.
