A Few Small Repairs

David Robson

Once two of the most glamorous members of America's privileged class now facing possible eviction from their Newport mansion by the Board of Health, "Big" and "Little" Alice protect, torment, lie and cling to each other. Loosely based on the true, bizarre life of mother and daughter Big and Little Edie Beale, this dark comedy lives somewhere between the longings, loves and delusions of The Three Sisters and Sunset Boulevard.
