Bringing Up Bobby on AllMovie

A European con artist attempts to give her 10 year old son a stable upbringing in Oklahoma, but finds her efforts leading to disaster when her shady past finally catches up with her. Thanks to her talent for grifting, Olive (Milla Jovovich) never stayed in one place for very long. But after her son Bobby (Spencer List) is born, Olive attempts to settle down in Oklahoma. But when Bobby's erattic behavior catches the attention of their conservative neighbors, Olive's carefully-constructed façade begins to crack. Later, after an accident involving Bobby and prominent local businessman Kent (Bill Pullman), the truth about Olive's past finally comes out, forcing her to make the most difficult decision of her entire life.
