THEY RE SISTERS. BUT IT WILL TAKE A MIRACLE TO MAKE THEM A FAMILY.
Adapted from the novel Don t Look and It Won t Hurt by Richard Peck, AIlison Anders (Grace of My Heart) whipped up a storm at the 42nd Berlin InternationaI Film FestivaI with her masterfuIly crafted taIe of a young woman trying to find love whiIe struggling to bring up her two daughters.
Abandoned by her husband, Nora (Brooke Adams, lnvasion of the Body Snatchers, The Stuff) waitresses to keep her head above water while raising two teenagers in a small New Mexico town traiIer park. Beautiful and rebeIlious, Trudi (lone Skye, Wayne s WorId, Zodiac) quits schooI to work alongside her mother, while her sister Shade (Fairuza Balk, The Craft, American History X) whittIes away her time watching oId movie matinees. Their life is turned on its head when Trudi finds that she has fallen pregnant after a string of promiscuous reIationships and the girls' absent father returns with hopes of mending the relationships he broke when he Ieft.
A wonderfully engaging story of the woes of teenagers reaching aduIthood, Gas Food Lodging is a distinctIy American portrayaI of a mother trying to raise two wayward teens with growing pains, who are Iearning about Iove, Iife and each other. This director-approved restoration finaIly affords this 90s modern cIassic the home video treatment it rightly deserves.
