Overview

Found at a Catholic hospital filthy and ferocious, feral teenager Darlin’ is whisked off to a care home run by The Bishop and his obedient nuns, where she’s to be rehabilitated into a “good girl” as an example of the miraculous work of the church. But Darlin’ holds a secret darker than the “sins” she is threatened with, and she is not traveling alone. The Woman who raised her, equally fierce and feral, is ever present in the shadows of Darlin’s psyche and is determined to come for her no matter who tries to get in her way.

Viewing Notes

Enjoyable yet lacks the edge of THE WOMAN. Lots of questionable aspects that you just have to accept (like Darlin’ learning to read & speak within months) but for Pollyanna’s feature debut, she does a nice job keeping the viewer invested. A lot of credit goes to Lauryn Canny (Darlin’) who is marvelous in that role.
