Asia Argento (horror filmmaker Dario's daughter) directed, co-wrote and stars in this deeply affecting, fact-based biopic. She plays Sarah, a troubled young mother who drags her son from foster care to join her on a drug-and-booze-fueled road trip. Jimmy Bennett plays the boy as a 7-year-old, and Dylan and Cole Sprouse take over as the kid reaches 11. Features cameos by Peter Fonda, Winona Ryder and shock rocker Marilyn Manson.
