My beloved drama teacher once lent me a copy of the script (the stage version is called 'The Miss Firecracker Contest') - it's very funny and quite sweet and suburban in its feel. Kind of like the 'Crimes of the Heart' piece we did for our AS level performance (I played the part of Babe Botrelle- crazy girl). [edit: lol, it's no wonder they are similar- both were written by the superb Beth Henley within the same two years...]
Anyway, this film was on tv yesterday and i simply couldn't resist watching it. Holly Hunter was brilliant as Carnelle- so fresh funny and quirky. :)
Very well cast. It was subtle and had a lovely old, vintage feel to it. The kind that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
Okay- that's my sharing for the day! :D
