Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1996 drama film directed by Anjelica Huston, adapted from the 1992 novel of the same name by Dorothy Allison.Set in 1950s rural South Carolina, the story centers around Ruth Anne "Bone" Boatwright (Jena Malone) and her mother, Anney (Jennifer Jason Leigh). Initially, due to being born out of wedlock, Bone just lives with her mother and extended family in the poorer parts of town. Even though she loves Bone, Anney hasn't really grown up too much and gets tired from working to support her and Bone and is needed for attention, coupled with having to deal with the stigma from having a baby out of wedlock.After her kind and hardworking husband Lyle Parsons (Dermot Mulroney) is killed in a car accident, Anney goes on to remarry Glen Waddell (Ron Eldard), who at first seems nice and caring. However, after Anney has a stillbirth, things head south really fast.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

A Date with Rosie Palms | |
Bastard out of Carolina / int_2a321a1f | comment |
A Date with Rosie Palms: In the original novel, while Anney is giving birth, Glen does this while touching Bone. In the movie, however, he just molests her. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
Bastard out of Carolina / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: The whole part about Bone and her mother being looked down upon because Bone was born out of wedlock, including Bone's birth certificate stating she's "Illegitimate". In the book, the doctor is angry at Anney when he discovers Bone has a broken coccyx (tailbone) and makes it clear it could only be broken either purposely or through a really severe beating. He is then escorted away by the nurse, who says he's new here. At the time the book was set (the late 1950's) mandated reporting laws did not exist - and in the place the book was set (rural South) there was and to some extent still is a huge distrust of governmental bodies intervening in family affairs. | |

Abusive Parents | |
Bastard out of Carolina / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Bone's stepfather is very abusive towards her, beating her, molesting her, molesting her while masturbating, and raping her in the climax. | |
