Robbie is excellent, and she has at least one amazing scene that might be the movies high point.

Sharon is even largely quiet during her biggest scene, which might be the films most moving part.
She looks lovingly at her name on the poster, and the lobby cards featuring images of her.
She buys a ticket, hoping that the girl in the booth might recognize her.
