Plot
Summary:Newly arrived in an up-market housing
development, quiet ten-year-old Devon doesn't quite
fit in. Ignoring the urgings of her social-climbing
father, Devon chooses the company of Trent, who mows
the estate's lawns, rather than of the girls her own
age. Their friendship grows during her visits to his
trailer home, but although it is completely innocent
it is obvious that it would be unacceptable to the
residents if they found out.
Comments:
Sam
Rockwell plays Trent, a white-trash guy who lives
in a trailer and mows the lawns of the rich people
nearby. He befriends a 12 year-old girl, the daughter
of one of the families living in the wealthy estate
and wisely tries to keep their friendship secret.
He faces daily prejudice from these people and only
the young girl sees him for who he is, rather than
what he is.
A touching, well made film with outstanding performances
from Rockwell and Barton (who plays the 12-year old).
One of the film's many highlights is seeing Angie
Harmon (naked!) in her first film role. Recommended
and worth watching.
