I've never felt more identified with anyone than with both Ramona and Annie from Sterling Point.

From Annie the sense of loss, of someone missing, of having to play the role of that missing person.

From Ramona the sense of opportunities I could have had since my forever stranged father is nowhere near poor. Let alone the entitlement of my siblings, their blindness to how much better they had it.

7/10 I cautiously recommend it. At times it is vomitively corny and puritan, other times it feels a bit like Heartstopper, just with a change of subject instead of:

what I would have loved my childhood to be if being gay was as boringly normal back then and not a nightmare

It becomes:

what I would have loved my young adult years to have been after meeting my actual siblings and after being raised by a nice person and not an insane narcissistic and manipulative psychopath and her homophobic, violent and generally bigoted husband.

Baby girl is an excellent movie that surprises me a gay man like me can enjoy, considering I see Nicole Kidman having orgasms in many positions. Which, at the same time, I've noticed it is her brand. I can't remember a single movie or series of N.K. where there isn't at least one very long shot of her climaxing. Don't get me wrong she's pretty, but I'm gay and like bodies that don't seem brittle and she's always looked fragile to my personal standard of what I can see sexually on a screen and not find off putting. Yet somehow she pulls it off every time. I wonder why other than brilliant acting. #BabyGirl #WhatToWatch
