1 star (Turkey) Indicts publishing. Sexually abused at 15 by a famous writer, Alice can no longer write, and trapped as a publisher's assistant/editor. About 20 flips from present to past overlay faux complexity on a weak script in the usual Hollywood style. ~Sandy
2 stars (Good Try) I'm guessing it had some good intentions about portraying sexual harassment with Michael Nyqvist playing the predator well but the whole thing is a bit shallow. ~Tubbs
