Synopsis
When three generations of a dysfunctional family gather in Rhode Island to bury the family patriarch, members of the Collins
clan are at each other's throats in no time. Son Daniel is a secret porn actor, and daughter Lucy is a lesbian. Lucy totes
along her lover Judy to the outrage of Lucy's aggressively neurotic sister Alice, whose hysterical overreaction to the pair's
marriage plans ought to tell everyone something. Rounding out the delightful crowd are dim brother Skip, whose unfailingly
rude twin sons offer caustic commentary on their elders' infantile predilections; matriarchal widow Charlotte, who becomes
so justifiably distraught at the insanity of her children she tries to commit suicide; and Kate, a confused but comely
college freshman who juggles preparation of the eulogy with internal debate over what to do with her childhood
friend-turned-suitor, Ryan.
Trivia
