What a summer in the south feels like.

After living in Tennessee for 14 years, you know that it is unlike any other place in the country. This is more than likely why this film means so much to me. Mike McCarthy gives the viewer an eye into his world, or rather his mother's, as she becomes a woman in Tupelo, MS.

Trivia
D'Lana Tunnell, who played two roles, said filming a scene where her two characters meet and talk to each other was very tough. She had a harder time with that one scene than with all the nude scenes she had to shoot.
