Movie Haiku:Theron’s a futuristic freedom-fighter discovering mid-mission that “the truth” is very complicated. Rich found the rules of her world too thin to be engaging. Jan agrees that Frances McDormand’s oracular role was ludicrous, but she was still drawn into Theron’s dilemma & moved by her relationship with her colleague Okonedo.
