I remember seeing this as a girl. It really shook me then. I had no idea of the name of the film or who's in it, but I have been looking for it since. So glad I found it now! Thanks sweetie19894u!
@099kimi099 well she was from a poor family (look at her clothes in the scene) with lots of brothers and sisters and now all of a sudden she had so much money to hand out gum to everybody
Well done! I got it on Criterion DVD playing right now and I just wondered if it was easily available because every aspiring writer needs to see this film. Imagine having your published words save you in the nick of time, winning a literary award while in hospital days before her scheduled leucotomy. Never give up on writing a novel. And write what you know. If it doesn't hurt or spark some 'ahas!' going onto the page it's likely not to do so for the reader either.

How did the teacher know that he was lying? Was it so unusual to get money from parents for a candy?
