By rights, child psychologist Dr. Nina Moss (Mare Winningham) should be pleased and proud that her
daughter Beth (Alison Lohman) is a slim, eternally upbeat overachiever. But Nina suspects that
all is not well with Beth--and she's right. Desperate to be accepted by her family and friends,
and determined to be fully in control of her own destiny, Beth has become bulimic, "binging" and
"purging" whenever things threaten to get out of hand in her life--or whenever she gains a single
pound beyond her "ideal" weight.

• Alison's Reviews:
Alison Lohman carries most of the burden and most of the movie. And she's more than up to the task.
Her expressions, sometimes deadpan, sometimes questioning, carry most of the telepic's meaning.
Lohman has no trouble getting to the pain, and she has some terrific moments in front of the camera. [HOLLYWOOD REPORTER - May 10 2000]
