"Based on a true story- I did not follow any of this while it was happening but I read an article with Jennifer Grey explaining her role in this film and knew I had to watch this. She was unrecognizable between her hair/makeup and strong southern accent. She also had to lose weight for this role which she said was difficult for her. Really interesting story and excellent acting by Jennifer Grey."
"Outstanding performance by Jennifer Grey. "
