I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
3 stars (Good Enough) Aka "Cleo from 5 to Bedtime". Aparicio as Cleo is terrific as a Jill of all trades to a well-off family - importantly she is the one with most control & influence over the children - which I would think is the main point the Director is trying to make. ~Tubbs
