Blue Car (Imprint Collection #248)

Having been abandoned by her father and neglected by her overworked mother, young Meg turns her English teacher for solace and inspiration. But the safety of what begins as a mentoring relationship turns increasingly complex.

Critic Reviews:

• " One of the more stunning films I've seen on the subject of sexual abuse and family dynamics. " – Richard Propes (TheIndependen­tCritic.com)

• " At the film's center Bruckner more than holds her own, beautifully capturing the anger, uncertainty and yearnings of an unhappy kid impatient for her ‘real’ life to begin. " – Robert W. Butler (Kansas City Star)

• " The truest depiction I have ever seen on film of how children grow up with divorced parents. Hollywood blockbuster hype notwithstanding, this is actually the must-see movie of the summer. " – Joshua Tanzer (Offoffoff)
