Saint Frances

2020, 106 mins, Not Rated

 

Bridget (Kelly O’Sullivan), a disaffected and unattached 34-year-old, becomes a nanny for a lesbian couple (Lily Mojekwu and Charin Alvarez)—caring for their whipsmart 6-year-old daughter Frances (Ramona Edith Williams).  Tending to Frances forces Bridget to grow up and assume responsibility for choices she makes in her life.  Actress O’Sullivan wrote a realistic script (with funny moments) which contends with exceptionally frank, refreshingly nonjudgmental issues (like abortion, post partum depression and gender acceptance).  Fine ensemble acting enhances this thought provoking drama.
