Rose (Laura Dern) is taken in by the Hillyer family to serve as a 1930s housemaid so that she can avoid falling into a life of prostitution. Rose's appearance and personality is such that all men fall for her, and Rose knows it.
Some of this film is a little bit scandalous. I won't say what parts, but if you've seen it, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Perhaps there ought to be laws about certain things (though this was the 1930s and people didn't care back then).
Laura Dern has made a nice career out of quirky roles. She may be best known for "Jurassic Park", but she has not shied away from David Lynch and others. I don't know the films of Martha Coolidge, but after seeing this one, I think maybe I ought to look for more.
