    Storyline

    Edit
    • Goofs
      Because of a fire during filming, the front door of Momma-Lou's house changes colour inexplicably depending on whether it is seen from inside or outside angles. The director originally intended to use a different exterior location, and the front door of the interior was made to match. That planned exterior location burned to the ground an hour before the crew arrived on the scheduled shoot day.
