Movie Haiku:Critically important topic of teenage prostitution in the USA is handled with maximum commitment but minimal skill. W&W have a lot of great footage showing that vulnerable teens--mostly but not all girls--are lured into relationships with charismatic hustlers, then turned out on the street. But without focus, W&W try to do too much & they end up with too little.
