Fed up with her small-town Bay City existence, Adele August leaves her family and second husband and heads for Beverley Hills with her daughter. The teenager resents the move and her mother's always flamboyant behaviour and in turns plans to get away to university on the east coast. Mum's plans are different - she wants a movie star for a daughter.

"Mawkishly sentimental, plot-free and downright unamusing, the result should nevertheless prove a big hit with the beleagured parents of teenage kids (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)" | ||||
"Well worth seeing for the incandescent Portman." | ||||
"Formula mother-brat stuff...It's only the deft teamwork of Portman and Sarandon that keeps the triteness at bay." | ||||
"The movie's interest is not in the plot, which is episodic and 'colorful,' but in the performances (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" |
