Plot: A young girl learns a difficult lesson about the bonds of family in this drama based on the novel for young adults by Kimberly Willis Holt. Tiger Ann Parker (Kelsey Keel) is a girl growing up in the small rural community of Saitter, LA, and she's not especially happy with her life. Her mother (Amelia Campbell) suffered brain damage after a childhood accident that significantly reduced her IQ, and her father (Chris Owens) is slow and has trouble reading and writing, which has made Tiger Ann the subject of a lot of cruel taunting from her classmates at school. When Tiger Ann's Aunt Dorie (Juliette Lewis) offers to let her stay with her in the big city of Baton Rouge, the young girl is eager to see what the world has to offer beyond the city limits of Saitter. But Tiger Ann soon discovers that leaving her home and family behind is not as simple as she imagined. My Louisiana Sky also features Shirley Knight; actor Adam Arkin directed, in what was his first feature-length project. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

So real and genuine . . .

This movie is so real and genuine to the culture and period it represents. I like to watch this movie once a year, checking it out of the public library, when ever I do. But, my public library's DVD collection is getting scratched up beyond playability, so I purchased my own copy on Amazon.

This is a WONDERFUL movie...and great viewing for ANYONE. I'm actually glad that I was home sick today and caught it on the Hallmark movie channel. The young actress who played Tiger Anne is wonderful (beautiful hair) and Juliette Lewis, one of my favorite actresses, is superb. It will be a pleasure to have this as part of my small collection of choice DVDs.

A movie which will restore your faith in Films. This Emmy award winning film is worthy of the time spent watching it. It will entertain you while making you feel very good.

This is a genuinely heartwarming story. As a Southerner, I can vouch for its authenticity, its "realness." The portrayals of the central characters, especially Tiger, are true and done with love.
This is a great story for the young. It's equally great for those who aren't so young, but remember.
