In BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY...THEY GET EVEN, director Joan Micklin Silver addresses the fallout from the high post-1960s divorce rate and the problems of children who must learn to cope with their family's fragmentation. Hillary Wolf (HOME ALONE) stars as Laura Chartoff, a bright 13-year-old with low self-esteem who feels she has been lost in the shuffle between her various families. Between her wealthy, self-absorbed stepfather, Keith (David Strathairn), her fashion-obsessed mother, Melinda (Margaret Whitton), her biological father, David (Griffin Dunne), his 19-year-old girlfriend, Stephanie (Adrienne Shelley), his second wife, Barbara (Patricia Kalember), and their various progeny, no one has much time for Laura. Forced to take the rap for one of her brothers' mistakes, the frustrated girl decides to cut out on the family vacation while in Hawaii, taking off on her own. The film is a thought-provoking comedy that conveys the trials of adolescent angst amid the complications of divorce.Product Identifiers
