What happens

Molly is a 1999 romantic comedy-drama film about an autistic woman who comes into the custody of her neurotic executive brother. The film was directed by John Duigan and written by Dick Christie of Small Wonder-fame, and stars Elisabeth Shue as the title character, Aaron Eckhart as her older brother, and Jill Hennessy. Not expected to do well, the film was minimally marketed, shown in few theaters, so was panned by critics and officially considered a box office bomb. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
