Hilariously sordid details about a southern family surface with a vengeance when relatives converge for the funeral of grandma peggy who died after tripping over her lovers wooden legs.

Amazon.com:
If you've got a taste for big hair, broad Texas accents, and gay rights,this mixture of white-trash comedy and coming-out melodrama is for you.Sordid Lives starts out as chicken-fried farce, as a funeral isprepared for a woman who died when she tripped over her adulterous lover'swooden legs; about midway the emphasis shifts to a drag queen unfairlyheld in a mental institution and the dead woman's grandson, an actor inLos Angeles who hasn't come out to his mother. The tone shifts wildly, andthe humor depends on your fondness for the white-trash genre--if you likeit, this will tickle your ribs; if you don't, it'll fall flat as thepanhandle landscape. But it must be said that the cast (including BonnieBedelia, Beau Bridges, Delta Burke, and Olivia Newton-John) dives rightin, no matter how over-the-top their characters get. --Bret Fetzer
