Description
Director
Peter Bogdanovich brings the inspirational, true story of Rocky Dennis (
Eric Stoltz) to life in MASK. Despite being born with craniodiaphyseal dysplasia, a disease resulting in disfigurement of the bones of the face and head, Rocky is a typical teen: he collects baseball cards, plans to take a Harley through Europe, and excels at school. His devoted, yet substance-abusing mother, Rusty (
Cher), along with her warmhearted biker friends, will do anything to ensure that Rocky is allowed to live as normal a life as possible. Rocky's positive outlook and spirit win him friends and supporters wherever he goes--at school, at the hospital, and while working at a camp for the blind, where he finds love with beautiful Diana (
Laura Dern). Stoltz is extraordinary as Rocky, instilling him with warmth and verve. The film also features
Sam Elliott as Rusty's love interest, Gar, rounding off a uniformly fine cast.
