Teenage Rachel (Lindsay Lohan)
is a real thorn in the side of her mother, Lilly
(Felicity Huffman) . More than just rebellious, she is
incorrigible. After Rachel crashes a car, Lilly decides
to haul the girl off to a place to which she vowed never
to return: Her own mother's (Jane Fonda) Idaho home.
Georgia, the family matriarch, lives by a strict code
and expects all under her roof to do the same. Given
structure and purpose, Rachel's anger at the world
begins to subside.

"Writer Mark
Andrus' script could have been sanitized and
schmaltzified, but to his credit, (director)
Marshall dives headfirst into the
controversial plot."
