CGiii Comment

This is like a contraceptive...after watching this you'll never want a child.

Solondz paints grimly - even the bullied are vile.

Impressive...if you are in the right frame of mind. Heaven help us all.

The(ir) Blurb...

Seventh-grade is no fun. Especially for Dawn Weiner when everyone at school calls you 'Dog-Face' or 'Wiener-Dog.' Not to mention if your older brother is 'King of the Nerds' and your younger sister is a cutesy ballerina who gets you in trouble but is your parents' favorite. And that's just the beginning--her life seems to be falling apart when she faces rejection from the older guy in her brother's band that she has a crush on, her parents want to tear down her 'Special People's Club' clubhouse, and her sister is abducted.
