Set in the mid to late '70's, Vivian (Lyonne) is coming of age. Unfortunately, it's with her father and two brothers as they move about the low-rents of Beverly Hills and take in her troubled cousin (Tomei).
A fantastic independent comedy that hits a strong chord. A variety of wonderful characters play within a script that is honest, funny and poignant. And what's funnier than a guy in his underwear singing "Luck Be A Lady"? Highly recommended.
Look for a Carl Reiner cameo.
