I understand

I can relate to the descent into 'loony doglady land' (or whatever some other poster said)....when things got rough in my life and my eyes were opened to the horror of what goes on behind locked doors far far away from the general public's eyes with animals, and when I lost my cats - whom I slept with every night like she does in the movie....I went practically mad with grief. And I still cry. And nobody really gets how fckin sad it is. In this case, in the movie, I got it. I don't necessarily agree with the pushing peta and stuff all over people, but people do crazy things when overwhelmed with grief and loneliness.
I enjoyed the movie. Totally not what i was expecting!

I loved this film! I see many films and just when you think you've seen it all and can predict where a film is going something like this comes along. It was a truly unique story and wonderfully done.

She made a lot of mistakes, but in the end she paid her debts and realized she couldn't work for the pharma company any more, and she went off to pursue her love. Great ending.

This film showed contrasts. What means the most to you in your life? For some, it might be your children(her brother and sister in law), for some, it might be money(her boss),For her, the most important thing in her life,as she discovered, is the great love for animals and animal rights. Great film!!
