Passion Fish
Film SynopsisMay-Alice Culhane was a successful soap opera star, but a car accident has left her bound to a wheelchair. She returns to her now-empty family home in the bayous of Louisiana, which she had eagerly left years before. She drinks heavily and vents her bitterness on the succession of nurses hired to take care of her, who immediately quit because of her unbearable temperament. Chantelle is the latest of these nurses; May-Alice learns that Chantelle is the last nurse she'll get. Chantelle, for reasons of her own, also badly needs the job to work out. The story focuses on the developing relationship between the two women. Get Involved |
