America (2009) [Lifetime Original Movie]
Dr. Maureen Brennan (O'Donnell) has spent her career counseling teens as a therapist at Ridgeway, a residential treatment facility for foster kids who are on the cusp of "aging out" of the "system." Her newest patient is seventeen-year-old America (Johnson), a withdrawn and troubled boy who has been in foster care since infancy. As a youngster, America initially found stability in the arms of Mrs. Harper (Dee), an elderly nanny to one of his foster families. A few days before the start of kindergarten, though, America is reunited with his birth mother, only to be abandoned yet again and left at the mercy of an imperfect system. After years of sexual abuse, America is full of anger and confusion and attempts suicide, landing him at Ridgeway. There, Dr. Brennan slowly helps him open up about his painful past and provides him with the support and courage to reclaim his life before the system turns its back. Available on Video
"Oh guys, look what we have here. Look at this, your favorite. Oh, you like that? Yeah, that's nice,
right? Well, it doesn't exist, okay? Look at the hair. The hair is long, it's flowing, it's like a
river. Well, it's a fuckin' weave, okay? And the tits, please! I could hang my overcoat on them.
Tits, by design, were invented to be suckled by babies. Yes, they're purely functional these are
silicon city. And look, my favorite, the shaved pubis pubic hair being so unruly and all very key.
This is a mockery. This is a sham. This is bullshit.
"Implants, collagen, plastic, capped teeth, the fat sucked out, the hair extended, the nose fixed, the
bush shaved . . . these are not real women, alright? They're beauty freaks. And they make all us normal
women, with our wrinkles, our puckered boobs, our cellulite, feel somehow inadequate. Well I don't buy
it, alright? But you fuckin' mooks, you think if there's a chance in hell that you'll end up with one
of these women, you don't give us real women anything approaching a commitment. It's pathetic. I don't
know what you think you're gonna do. You're gonna end up 80 years old, drooling in some nursing home.
Then you're gonna decide it's time to settle down, get married, have kids. What, are you gonna find a
cheerleader?
"Oh, eat me. Look at Paul, with his models on the wall, his dog named Elle MacPherson. He's insane. He's
obsessed. You're all obsessed. If you had an ounce of self-esteem, of self-worth, of self-confidence,
you would realize that, as trite as it may sound, beauty is truly skin deep. And you know what? If you
ever did hook one of those girls, I guarantee you'd be sick of her.
"Get over yourself. No matter how perfect the nipple, how supple the thigh, unless there's some other
shit going on in the relationship besides the physical, it's gonna get old, okay? And you guys as a
gender have got to get a grip. Otherwise, the future of the human race is in jeopardy."
