A mentally-retarded woman (Juliette Lewis) struggles to
live independently, but her overprotective mother (Diane Keaton) just can't accept she's
capable of doing so. Also with Tom Skerritt, Giovanni Ribisi, Poppy Montgomery, Hector
Elizondo, Joanna Going and Sarah Paulson. [2:11]
SEX/NUDITY 4 - Lots of sexual innuendo. Kissing. We see a man undress to his
boxers and a woman undress to her bra and underwear (it's implied that they then have
intercourse). A man and woman look through a book of sexual advice and we briefly see some
illustrations of people in sexual positions. We see two women in bed together (they're
obviously lovers but we don't see them doing anything sexual). During a "sex
talk," we hear some clinical words. A man licks salt from a woman's stomach before
drinking a shot. We see a woman wearing a cleavage-revealing bra begin to take it off, but
we don't see her bare breasts. A woman shows her bare stomach to a man. We see some
condoms and some game pieces that are illustrations of penises.
VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A girl pushes a boy down some steps.
PROFANITY 2 - Several mild obscenities and insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Mental retardation, living independently, parenthood,
discovering one's sexuality, falling in love, lesbianism.
MESSAGE - You have to let your children grow up and live their own lives.
