Part of her study involves attending different places of worship to better understand religious practice and also to see if one of them might be right for her. She enjoys spending time with her Jewish paternal grandmother, Sylvia Simon, who loves her as she is, and hopes Margaret will embrace Judaism after taking her to her synagogue for Rosh Hashanah services..

Liked it, Nice, Better than Alternatives
I’m glad I saw it, but expected MORE when I read critic reviews who were all IN. It’s definitely a fun walk down memory lane to adolescence in the 1970’s, but its relevance today escapes me, and I’m surprised it ever got made for that reason. I compliment the young actress, who played Margaret. Other actors, like Rachel McAdams and Kathy Bates were under-challenged in their roles. Plot mixture of adolescent angst & religious choice was awkward, so neither got the attention it deserved. And, Kathy Bates character as Jewish grandmother was stereotypical and heavy-handed. She’s a better actor when she plays closer to home. Go see if nothing better.
