Lydia Callahan's (Jennifer Jason Leigh) daddy (R. Lee Ermey) is planning a run for governor of North Carolina so he's banished Lydia and her 14-year-old illegitimate son Sam (Bug Hall) to Wyoming so they won't be a liability to him.
Sam's only new friend is a girl his age, Maurey Pierce (Mischa Barton), who wants to experiement with sex. Lydia, loose woman that she is, actually encourages them but warns them they must stop when Maurey gets her first period. Of course, pregnancy happens before the period so they family is left to deal with it -- with Lydia's dictatorial father keeping tabs on the situation.
Others in the cast include Brad Renfro as Dothan Talbot, Maurey's boyfriend who harasses Sam; Drew Barrymore as the Fantasy Girl; Peggy Lipton as Maurey's mother; and Michael Greyeyes as Lydia's Native American lover Hank Elkrunner.
Directed by Tamra Davis.
Run Time: 1 hour, 40 minutes
Rated R for sexual situations, some involving young teens, and for language.
My personal rating: C+
