Willowdean ('Dumplin'), the plus-size teenage daughter of a former beauty queen, signs up for her mom's Miss Teen Bluebonnet pageant as a protest that escalates when other contestants follow her footsteps, revolutionizing the pageant and their small Texas town.
"Directed by Anne Fletcher ("Step Up"), and based on the same-titled novel by Julie Murphy, "Dumplin'" is a fun comedy with a serious subtext: the weight of traditional beauty standards, including how it can affect the relationship between mothers and daughters. The cast also stars Jennifer Aniston and a charming Danielle Macdonald ("Patti Cake$")."
