Florence Pugh shines in flawed drama 'A Good Person'

TL;DR Summary
Zach Braff's emotionally loaded drama "A Good Person" features a first-rate cast led by Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman, and shifts tones and moods that startle with their bluntness and honesty. The film bravely wrestles with guilt that will haunt the responsible party forever and supply endless pain to the remorseful perpetrator. Pugh and Freeman carry the film in an immensely gratifying way, and Braff is alert to the story’s many dramatic, even sometimes amusing, possibilities.
