Dutch filmmaker
Marleen Gorris directs the romantic comedy Carolina, written by Los Angeles-based screenwriter Katherine Fugate.
Julia Stiles stars as Carolina Mirabeau, a young woman who grows up in an eccentric southern family. She and her two sisters -- Georgia (
Azura Skye) and Maine (
Mika Boorem) -- have been raised by their well-meaning if meddling grandmother (
Shirley MacLaine). Carolina's family seems to think that she should marry the novelist Albert (
Alessandro Nivola), whom she has known since childhood. However, when she starts dating the well-to-do Heath (Edward Atterton), Albert becomes very jealous. Carolina has to choose which man she wants without letting her grandmother take over. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
