REVIEW
It’s worthwhile going to the movie just to see two great actresses at their best.
Add to that a terrific story and great acting from several male actors and you got yourself a very entertaining movie.

CLASSIFICATION
for language and some sexual content.

FOR NITPICKERS ONLY
While talking with one of the male teachers, Barbara lights a cigarette that goes out yet when the camera shifts to her colleague the smoke from the cigarette is much in evidence.
