Charlotte (Ryder) is an adolescent girl torn between her blossoming passions for a handsome caretaker (Michael Schoeffling)...and her desire to be a nun (a tough calling for a girl who's Jewish)/ Complicating her already precarious teen angst is a little sister (Ricci), a determined would-be swimmer she affectionately calls "fishhead," and their mother (Cher), a non-traditional, sexy, flamboyant woman sho relocates them to a new town every time she causes a hint of scandal - which is often. But even as their personal styles clash, these three incredibly different individuals befin to see that nothing - not even a life-threatenind tragedy - can tear apart the bonds of family. | |||
