Theatrical report
Five young girls commit suicide for no apparent reason, but Sofia Coppola puts reasons in mama's heart - the master mother dominator. It's her way or the highway... to hell.In the beginning I saw five girls. Then the youngest impaled herself because her previous attempt failed. Hmmm. Doesn't work. The wicked mother thing just doesn't convince me, either. Humph. But it's still a good film, as long as you accept everything they say.
By the way, there's one thing misleading about the title because only 80% were... intact.
