| User ReviewCassandra DNice lifetime movie. This movie is about two sisters who have to worry about being thin all the time because their mother is obsessed with weight and being skinny. She is afraid if she is not hard on her girls with weight they will become "fat and miserable". Unfortunately they don't become fat but they do become miserable. Barbara Hershey gives a superb performance. And Christina Hendricks as Frannie and Susan May Pratt as Shelly do not disappoint either. B- |
