Saint Frances (2019)
7/10
depression, abortion, fun
29 May 2021
34 year old Bridget (Kelly O'Sullivan) lives an aimless life with a meaningless waitressing job. She has a non-boyfriend. She picks up a nanny job working for a lesbian couple taking care of rambunctious girl Frances.

I have never seen abortion done in a light comedic way. Writer Kelly O'Sullivan also stars and she intends to take some social issues into unlikely comedy territories. Sometimes it actually gets funny although the abortion is a tough hill to climb. Despite the tough subject matters, its heart is the standard connection between an unlikely nanny and a bratty kid and it's fun. O'Sullivan could be an interesting performer to watch out for and as a writer, she's willing to color outside the lines.
