Great actresses, great story, but! Charactization is shallow and trite, dialogue is pedestrian. I was suffering long before the women were. Lots and lots of set mistakes-china and spoons in a concentration camp? Clean wimples for the nuns, after weeks of living in tropical filth? The three women introduce themselves to each other after spending at least 12 hours together? Chatting leisurely while cleaning a tropical latrine at close range? Unbearable. Had to turn it off. Maybe it redeemed itself.
