SLUMS OF BEVERLY HILLS (1998)

TAMARA JENKINS

Plot

Weird and wacky coming-of-age comedy with nubile newcomer Natasha Lyonne as 15 year old Vivian, the only almost-normal member of a nomadic family living in 1970's Beverly Hills. As the only female squashed into an apartment with her dad and two brothers, Vivian's impending womanhood is confusing enough as it is, but the arrival of wayward cousin Rita (Marisa Tomei) only adds to the mayhem. Feelgood fun, with a deviant twist.
