Rambling Rose

US (1991): Drama/Romance/Comedy

Rose (Laura Dern), is taken in by the Hillyer family to serve as a 1930s housemaid so that she can avoid falling into a life of prostitution. Rose's appearence and personality is such that all men fall for her, and Rose knows it. She can't help herself from getting into trouble with men. "Daddy" Hillier (Robert Duvall) soon grows tired of Rose's rambling ways. Martha Coolidge directs this delightful and underappreciated film that also features Diane Ladd, John Heard and Lucas Haas. The nomination of Dern and Ladd marked the first time that a mother and daughter were nominated for acting Awards in the same year. (Amazon.com)
