    A young girl learns a difficult lesson about the bonds of family in this drama based on the novel for young adults by Kimberly Willis Holt. Tiger Ann Parker (Kelsey Keel) is a girl growing up in the small rural community of Saitter, LA, and she's not especially happy with her life. Her mother (Amelia Campbell) suffered brain damage after a childhood accident that significantly reduced her IQ, and her father (Chris Owens) is "slow" and has trouble reading and writing, which has made Tiger Ann the subject of a lot of cruel taunting from her classmates at school. When Tiger Ann's Aunt Dorie (Juliette Lewis) offers to let her stay with her in the "big city" of Baton Rouge, the young girl is eager to see what the world has to offer beyond the city limits of Saitter. But Tiger Ann soon discovers that leaving her home and family behind is not as simple as she imagined. My Louisiana Sky also features Shirley Knight; actor Adam Arkin directed, in what was his first feature-length project. Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

    May 28, 2003: This movie is wonderful for young and old. This movie not only held the attention of older children, but it was the first movie to captivate my three-year-old! She remembered all of the characters' names. It was very touching and tastefully made. It has a magical way of embracing the mind in a realistic, homestead point of view, rather than fantasy world. This makes it easier for people to relate to it. It is sure to make an impression on this generation of youngsters as the Secret Garden made on the previous.
