Lewis was nominated for a "Worst Supporting Actress" Razzie Award for her performance. The movie was filmed in Long Beach, Pasadena, and San Francisco, California. After receiving a well-earned certification from a sheltered boarding school, Carla Tate , an ambitious and mildly mentally challenged young woman, returns home to her over-protective mother Elizabeth and her wisdom-hard-won father Radley . Carla's ambition is to seek more... independence from her family by earning a diploma from a trade school. When Carla meets another mentally challenged student, Daniel McMann , they become friends and soon fall in love. Envying Danny's freedom, Carla convinces her parents she is capable of living on her own and moves into her own apartment. After a time, Carla and Danny become sexually active together. Danny's independence is financially compromised when his wealthy and emotionally detached father abruptly stops sending subsistence money.
