Brie Larson, playing a passionate and tough supervisor at a foster home, shows what emotionally naked acting is all about. Grace (Larson) is a formidable caretaker, but a difficult past and a suddenly unstable present throw her into unforeseen confusion. Grace comes to find—with the new teenagers in her care—surprising sources of redemption. “What might seem on paper a cloyingly sentimental heart warmer becomes a briskly believable, often funny, always invigorating story of emotional fortitude” (NPR). D: Destin Crettin, US, 2013, 96m
