About this item

Product Description This hilarious foul-mouthed, lesbian road movie co-stars Oscar -winning actresses Brenda Fricker and Olympia Dukakis as Dot and Stella, a crackerjack lesbian couple on the run from a nursing home. You'll laugh so hard you'll cry. Stella and Dot have been together for 31 years and have faithfully accompanied one another through life's ups and downs. Now in their seventies, Stella is hard of hearing and Dot is legally blind.Dotty's prudish granddaughter, Molly (played by Genie Award-winner Kristin Booth), decides the best place for Dot is a nursing home that will provide all the necessities. This forces Stella and Dot to make a bold decision: they will leave their hometown and make their way to Canada, where same-sex marriage is legal. It's a last-gap bid to stay together. En route to Canada, they pick up a young hitchhiker, Prentice, played by newcomer Ryan Doucette. A small-town boy turned modern dancer, he is returning to Nova Scotia to visit his dying mother. Despite his bravado, Prentice is a confused and wounded soul who has much to learn from Stella and Dot as they wage their own unexpected battle -- after three decades, can they keep their family together? Review A rousing, frequently rowdy comedy with considerable crossover appeal... Dukakis outdoes even her most memorable earlier turns. --Variety Must-see road film with a new twist at just about every turn... brilliant and witty --Pittsburgh Post Gazette Winner of 36 Awards including Best Feature, Palm Springs Int'l Film Fest, Atlanta Film Festival, San Diego Film Out, Southwest Film Festival, St. Louis Q Fest, Indianapolis Film Fest and many more. --Wolfe
