100The movie's triumph is that we experience the ending, in which the three girls go mostly separate ways, not as a defeat but as a transition still open to possibilities.
-
80So gently told, so deceptively simple a story, that its considerable emotional power sneaks up on you.
-
80Best of all is the supporting performance of The Jackie Robinson Steppers Marching Band, a real group of high-school musicians in which the three girls all perform.
-
30One of those movies that you continue to pull for even after it becomes clear that it isn't very good.
