Twitter Capsule: Protects privacy of Robyn's sojourn, aided by Wasikowska's lovely reticence. Pretty, if anodyne. Some coddling of audience.

VOR:   Its modesty is its most appealing quality but also a bit of a limit. Tricky to imagine exhorting people who don't self-select. But when have you seen a young female lead this proudly taciturn?
