Don't expect much from this depressing look a teenage girl(Hilary Swank)that terrorizes and tears apart her disjunctive family by inflicting physical and emotional injury. Directed and written by Gregory Goodell, this made-for-TV drama is hard to hold interest in. Joanna Kerns plays the alcoholic mother and Dan Luria is the indifferent father with incestuous issues. Young son Adam Hendershott also turns to alcohol with plans to runaway like his big sister. The court has Swank temporarily live with her aunt(Kathleen Wilhoite), who also has painful issues to deal with from childhood. Quite a mess and somewhat a drag. Not much fun to say the least.
