"Just noticed this is leaving Netflix soon — if you like a #truestory, this was a good one "

"This was a fantastic movie. #BasedOnTrueEvents."

"This is a VERY good movie. Very sad but very good. It was low budget but it didn't need all the flair, it pulls at those heart strings"

"What a ride! It's all about forgiveness, grief, regrets... And Dame Judi Dench is perfect as a sweet old lady. What's gross/wild: this is based on true events."

"Based on a true story. Reveals the practice of the nuns in Ireland who sold babies to people in the U. S. "

"This is a beautiful redemptive story of the "Magdalene Laundry" tragedies perpetuated by the church, particularly in Ireland. It is told tenderly, with a lot of compassion and respect for the material. You'll probably cry; but, you won't feel tricked into it and you will find much more than tears here. It's a great reminder why we dight for justice, even decades after the original offense: because our hearts and lives deserve no less."

"A gem of a movie, very sweet, i cried."

"Really enjoyed this one. Love Judi Dench"

"I’m not going to be very helpful because I saw it years ago and don’t remember much about it. I remember it was a smaller production and it was a sweet movie. Not outstanding but worth watching. "

"Deeply personal"
