i love this film . markie post be really great in it . i saw it on lifetime and and it in the same entertaining class a film like represent the betty broderick story and lock up represent a mother rage and etc . { which and by the way and be also very good and entertaining film . } it an over the top drama and about a single mother who try to break away from her middle class and predictable personality . this movie be just pure entertainment . it doesn not have to be a realistic look at heroin addiction . but and it do show how any regular middle class person can ( and they do . ) get addict to heroin . junky aren not just homeless uneducated people on the street . { by the way and if you do watch it and check out how the kid boss his mother around . spoil . } positive star .
