RUSSELL GIRL ***
CLASSY tearjerker with Amber Tamblyn as a young woman diagnosed with leukaemia. Her illness prompts a sentimental journey to her smalltown home where she discovers a far from helpful family and a neighbour who seems to harbour a dark secret about their shared past. Jennifer Ehle co-stars as the neighbour in a tale that succeeds in tugging at the heartstrings.
