Free-wheeling
irresponsible Maggie Feller (Cameron Diaz) gets through her life thanks to her
remarkable looks and her lack of scruples. She constantly goes to her
straight-laced, plain-Jane successful lawyer sister Rose (Toni Collette) for
financial help. The two sisters have been very close to each other in part
because their troubled mother died when they were girls. Right about the same
time that Maggie discovers hidden letters that reveal she and Rose have a
grandmother, Maggie does something to betray Rose's trust. Maggie sets off for
Florida to find the grandmother. A failed workplace romance forces Rose to
rethink her career, a career that has been the center of her life. As Rose
tentatively begins a new relationship and Maggie gets to know her grandmother
(Shirley MacLaine), the two learn a dark family secret that helps smooth the
path toward reconciliation.
