The listing, ***** Out of Carolina DVD 1996 has ended.
In post-WWII South Carolina, a young woman named Anney (Jennifer Jason Leight) gives birth to an illegitimate child, nicknamed Bone (Jenna Malone). A few years later, Anney marries the seemingly decent Glen (Ron Eldard), who does not get along with Bone. Annie's miscarriage of a boy enrages her husband, who, behind his wife's back, begins to physically abuse Bone on a regular basis. After Anney discovers what her husband has been doing, she leaves Glen. But her need for a man's love eventually compels her to return to Glen, setting the stage for a heinous incident between Glen and his stepdaughter. As a result, a rift forms between mother and daughter -- that may never be healed. A made-for-cable adaptation of Dorothy Allison's best-selling novel. Anjelica Huston makes her directorial debut.
