Rating: 1.5/4 --
Star power isn't a problem in this episodic rendering of Truman Capote's novel. A scattershot story without focus is, which is why the film soon evaporates from the memory.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Following the death of his parents, young Collin Fenwick (Edward Furlong) comes to a small Southern town to live with his father's cousins, Verena and Dolly Talbo (Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie). He soon discovers that the Talbo household is anything but normal. Verena rules the house, as well as the entire town, with a stern hand. Meanwhile, older sister Dolly charms Collin with her gentle, romantic spirit. To escape Verena's oppression, Dolly, Collin and the Talbos' eccentric maid, Catherine (Nell Carter), run away to an old tree house in the woods. But their adventure sparks a series of events that will change not just their lives, but the future of the entire town as well.
