| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Pictures of Baby Jane Doe |
This movie is the Breakfast of Tiffany's of the 90's.
Callista Flockhart finds love and tries to overcome drug addiction with the help of a struggling writer. She shows him what life is really about through her successes and failures. It's a sad movie and very low budget, but an excellent choice for those who love a good independent film.

Boy meets girl, boy gets girl and trouble. Boring movie, bad plot, bad directing, bad cinematography, bad acting. A disappointment all around.

Horace(Christopher Peditto)is a struggling writer, Jane Doe(Calista Flockhart)is a drug addict.They met and fall in love. But Jane is very eccentric and can't help herself from keep going back to drugs. Horace tried several times to help her. A heart-breaking love story.
