What it is

Riding the Bus with My Sister is inspired by the autobiographical book written by Rachel Simon. In the film, Andie MacDowell plays Rachel, a successful, driven New York fashion photographer, and O'Donnell plays the part of her developmentally challenged sister, Beth. When their father dies, Rachel comes home to be with her sister for what's supposed to be a short visit. The irony is that Beth—the developmentally challenged character—is light years ahead of the suave Rachel in terms of how she deals with life, her capacity for love and understanding—to say nothing of sense of humor, director Anjelica Huston explains. This is a story of acceptance and love.
