About The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond
Fisher Willow is the disliked Memphis débutante daughter of a plantation owner with a distaste for narrow-minded people and a penchant for shocking and insulting those around her. After returning from studies overseas, Fisher falls in love with Jimmy, the down-and-out son of an alcoholic father and an insane mother who works at a store on her family's plantation.
Directed by Jodie Markell, The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond leans on a strong ensemble — Bryce Dallas Howard, Chris Evans, Ellen Burstyn — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2008.
