Getting Out (1994)
Directed by John Korty
Overview
Breaking out of prison with a child in her womb and a dream of a normal existence, Arlene Holsclaw (Rebecca De Mornay) resolves to get a job and lead a good, Christian life. But the ghosts from her past—including an ex-boyfriend (Rob Knepper) who wants to pimp her out and a sadistic mother (Ellen Burstyn) who plots to take away Arlene’s baby—have other plans. This made-for-TV drama is based on Marsha Norman’s off-Broadway play.
