How to Be Louise

1990 · Movie · 77 min · ★ 10.0

ComedyDrama

Louise (Lea Floden) is a woman with dreams. Aspiring for independence from her family, a meaningful relationship and a future as an actress, she is held back by an ongoing and rather serious identity crisis. Haunted by the accidental death of her mother (which she witnessed) and without role models, she single-mindedly scours her world for someone to imitate. With the help of James Joyce's Ulysses and a handsome taxi-driving poet named Stanley (Bruce McCarty), Louise discovers she is the woman she thought she would never be.
