Changing Hearts
focuses on the moving relationship which develops between Amber Connors
(Lauren Holly), a beautiful idealist faced with a powerful, personal
challenge who’s determined to transfer her sense of hope and wonder to
Jason (Ian Somerhalder) a severely disillusioned young man – before
it’s too late. The film also follows Betty Miller (Faye Dunaway), a
bossy, cantankerous older woman Amber befriends. Betty has spent her
entire adult life building her defenses, only to have them
systematically worn down by the town’s resident philanderer, Johnny
Pinkley (Tom Skerritt) – an aging charmer and hopeless romantic
determined to win back Betty’s love after breaking her heart decades
earlier by going off to the Korean War. A story of resilience in the
grand Southern tradition, Colored Eggs explores what it is about life that inspires people to fight for it.
The
ensemble also includes stellar performances by character actors Edie
McClurg as the quirky and helpful Nurse Rollins and Janet Carroll as
Mrs. Lane, head of the Baptist Women’s League and hospital do-gooder.
In addition to the ensemble cast, the film features musical
performances by veteran recording artist Rita Coolidge and Earl and
Randy Scruggs, alongside Grand Ole Opry country singers Jan Howard and
Jeannie Sealy.
