Though ellen burstyn s character in this film is flat due too direction and writing ellen burstyn s performance reflects a honed actor at her finest. Instead they are just there doing their acting bit.
Lifetime has been doing some wicked business lately. The adults in this movie are terrifying and evil. Since the plot features a family who locks up and then tries to kill the family s children positive messages are in short supply. Flowers both the book and the new movie is completely absurd if you want to gauge the absurdity just know that one of the darkest secrets in the narrative involves a doughnut but somehow.
