Not enough random lesbian sex. Too many cliches. Jessica Chastain has promise, though.

"Jolene's main themes, including the manipulation of youth, the fragility of love, and the suppression of individuality, try to carry the wonky dialogue into complex territory." - Glenn Heath Jr.
na	ArmondWhite	5	T₇
Downplaying Doctorow's condescending literary and class ironies, Ireland creates something more like a queer-inflected Candide.
