Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Perfect Pie is a play written in 2000 by Judith Thompson.The play is the story of two women (and only two: no one else technically appears other than their past selves) meeting and reconciling after decades of never speaking to each other. Pasty Willet is a middle-aged woman who lives on a family farm in a small town in Ontario. Her life, married with several children, is not perfect but is by no means awful. Eventually, however, she finds herself dictating a message by tape to Francesca, a famous actress, and inviting her over to visit nearly out of the blue.She explains it's been years, after all, and she misses Marie Begg, the girl who had been her best friend from the day they met. Marie, now called Francesca, who is beautiful, renowned, and never able to shake the sense of being alone in the world, finds herself agreeing despite her trepidation. She returns to visit the small town where everyone had treated her as less than dirt- everyone, that is, but Patsy.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Together, they awkwardly try and piece back the relationship that had broken the night that something terrible had happened to the girl who had been named Marie until then, and which had ended with Patsy in a coma and Marie running away to become Francesca.In 2002 it was adapted into a film starring Wendy Crewson (Patsy) and Barbara Wilson (Francesca). | |

Abusive Parents: Both of Marie's: while her father is 'just' extraordinarily neglectful and constantly drunk, her mother is physically and emotionally abusive to her. | |

Perfect Pie (Theatre) / int_f33ff01c | comment |
Adaptational Context Change: Marie's apology to Patsy, which she thought to herself in a diner in the play, is said at Parsy's bedside while she's in her coma in the movie. In the movie, this makes her come across as far more horrified and in the throes of guilt and self-loathing than she did in the play. | |
