Plot hole: When Rose, Crispina, and other inmates are hanging clothes in the yard, a woman with a boy waves from a fairly distant compound gate. Rose says to Crispina "There's someone looking for you", although at this point she can't have any idea which of the inmates the woman was waving at. (00:38:25)
Mr. O'Connor: You've got no home. You have no mother. You got no father. You killed us, you slut. You killed us both.
Sister Bridget: For many years, more years than I care to remember, I have had a secret love. In fact not just one, but dozens. Since I have been thirteen years old I have been in love... with the films.
Margaret: Crispina, why did you want to kill yourself?
Bernadette: Jesus, that's a stupid thing to ask, Elizabeth.
Margaret: I'm just trying to stop her from killing herself.
Bernadette: I know what you're trying to do. I just don't know why you're doing it.
