Flannery is more about the person than the work. It reminds me a lot in tone of Brad Gooch's biography of O'Connor: playful, intimate, and appreciative of the unique challenges and joys of O'Connor's life. August 5, 2020 | Full Review…

Two big problems: the first is that the filmmaking is very simpleminded... [The second is] that you watch her relatives and admirers tying themselves in knots trying to excuse her really loathsome behavior. July 18, 2020 | Full Review…
