* PLOT ...... From the Pullizer Prize winning play by Paul Zindel,
this is the story of Beatrice Hunsdorfer and her
daughters, Ruth and Matilda. A middle-aged widowed
eccentric, Beatrice is looking for her life in the
classified ads while all about her is the rubble of
an unkempt house. All she needs is the right
opportunity, she says puffing on a cigarette. Poorly
equipped to survive the vagaries of modern life, she
has nonetheless always managed to muddle through.
Ruth, epileptic and making her way through the
rebellious phase of adolescence, seems doomed to make
the same mistakes as her mother. Quiet Matilda, on
the other hand, seeks refuge in her animals and her
schoolwork. "Jesus, don't you hate the world,
Matilda?" Beatrice asks her youngest daughter. The
title of the film is also the subject of Matilda's
science project at school and serves as a metaphor
for the way life affects each of us differently --
how some are able to find opportunity in adversity
and thrive and how some succumb when the burden
becomes too heavy. This is the story of slowly
drowning and grasping desperately for a lifeline only
to find that there's none there and you must save
yourself. "No, Mama," Matilda says, "I don't hate the
world." (Nell Potts, who stars as Matilda, is the
stage name of Eleanor Newman -- Joanne Woodward's
real-life daughter. She also appeared as the young
Rachel in *Rachel, Rachel*.)
