Where The Heart Is (2000)
The Paramount Formula:
Take a novel about poor American Mid-south people and their day-to-day survival through poverty, crisis, and bonding relationships in small-town Oklahoma;
Cut out complete plot elements & characters while adding un-needed twists, scenes, and dumb down the entire original context from 'insightful' to 'hurrr de durrrr' with a badly executed drawl;
Add Ashley Judd in a character originally written nothing like Ashley Judd;
Stinker of a bomb film with an even more stinker ending.

Don't forget the real karmic lessons in this movie- 1. If you leave your pregnant girlfriend stranded in a Walmart you'll eventually get you legs cut off by a train 2. If you ever find a guy you think is good enough he'll abuse your kids because he knows he can 3. If you befriend a weird girl and her baby a tornado will kill you 4. If you fall in love your sick sister will die- just don't get me started on the stupid names all these people have!
