Movie Haiku:SPLIT DECISION: Rich was moved by the plight of a young girl wrestling with her emerging sexuality & confused by the behavior of the adults in her world. Jan appreciates what the film is trying to say, but she didn''t believe any of the adult behavior. Not that adults can''t be self-absorbed, but none of these goings on were remotely credible.
