Sometime in the 1970s, 15-year-old loner Agnes Marie "Mooney" Pottie dreams of escaping existence in New Waterford, a coastal Nova Scotia town on Cape Breton Island. She quietly scorns most of the people around her, including her large family, who don't share her sensibilities; her fiercely-Catholic family think she's weird. She thinks she's realized her dream when, with the help of her teacher Cecil Sweeney (who came to New Waterford to find himself and is still looking) she wins a scholarship to a New York art school. When her parents don't let her go, she devises a plan to escape New Waterford. Meanwhile, a bit of NYC comes to New Waterford when Lou Benzoa and her dance-instructor mother temporarily move in next door to the Potties to escape the Bronx until "the stink dies down." Lou becomes friends with Mooney and quickly gains a reputation as the female Equalizer, whose powers only work on the guilty.

| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterSweet, if not profound, with several laugh-out-loud moments, and a wonderful portrait of place. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonThis winning little comedy from Pump Up the Volume director Allan Moyle... is worth seeking on DVD. |
| User ReviewJen KOne of the best independent films I have ever seen, plus its Canadian (which usually frightens people away) |
| User ReviewRhys GSince watching this the fist time, I've started to appreciate films like "She's Having a Baby" and a few other coming of age type films... However, this one is in it's own class. The comedy and characterization in this film is far more sophisticated and true, it's a film I can watch at any time and it will always warm my tummy like a plate full of fresh chocolate chip cookies. I absolutely adore this movie. |
| User ReviewIvana Psuch a funny movie. jus cleaver enough for me not to hate it. very realistic and acted with such ease. there is a lil Monnie in all of us i think :) |
| User ReviewLinda BAmazing actors! Wonderful story, and so humorous!! I just loved it. Another awesome Canadian film that I own along with Margaret's Museum...wonderful!! There are so many more I want to see!! |
| User ReviewHeather MReally successful in setting a mood and working with it. |
| User ReviewPrivate Umoonie's character so believeable... i loved how she dealt with her difficult situation. like to see interesting female roles... this one is it. nova scotia landscape makes for the quirkiness of it all... |
| User ReviewNardina TVery interesting look at small town life on Canada's east coast. I grew up in the city, but so many aspects of Moonie's life resonate with me, especially the religious upbringing. Great writing and excellent performances. |
| User ReviewTom WOne of my favorite movies. It helped start my interest in unusual/independent movies years ago. Liane Balaban is wonderful. |
