Sparkler Movie Review 1999

Effervescemt Melba May (Overall) is a trailer-park wife, living just off the highway to Vegas. She leaves husband, Flint (Harvey), for cheating on her and eventually winds up in Vegas with three young men she just met and her old high-school buddy Dottie (Cartwright), who's now a stripper. And everybody gets an education of sorts. Doesn't have a consistent tone, with Overall and Cartwright providing the best performances.
