Postcards from the Edge
“Having a wonderful time, wish I were here.”
Substance-addicted Hollywood actress, Suzanne Vale is on the skids. After a spell at a detox centre her film company insists as a condition of continuing to employ her that she live with her mother, herself once a star and now a champion drinker. Such a set-up is bad news for Suzanne who has struggled for years to get out of her mother's shadow, and who still treats her like a child. Despite these and other problems, Suzanne begins to see the funny side of her situation, and also realises that not only do daughters have mothers—mothers do too.
A sharp, funny, and poignant look at Hollywood's underbelly and the complicated love between a mother and daughter. It's a raw, confessional journey through addiction and recovery, laced with wit and vulnerability.
