Rosie O'Donnell's acting in Riding The Bus With My Sister

Dear lord, how did the camera people manage to keep a straight face during filming?

I swear, I could not have done it.

This is next-level bad.

No wonder she had to leave the country.

This movie destroyed the careers of Anjelica Huston, Andie Macdowell, and Rosie O'Donnell.

I must admit, I watch this movie every so often (or at least the Rosie scenes, not the whole movie) and can't stop laughing uncontrollably. It's like a SNL skit. They should have passed it off as a comedy.

This really backfired on Rosie's attempt to make this her 'dramatic actress' project.

Makes Rob Lowe in Square Dance seem like a genius.

“Is it still raining? I hadn’t noticed”.

Costar Andie has some great acting skills, too.

Regardless, Rosie was playing a real person.. She met her, hung out with and her interpretation is how the real Beth is. Growing up she was called severely retarded, Now she's diagnosed as Autistic,

I love the first comment under the video at op's link.

"This movie has aged well."

Seriously? Is that person on crack??

r13 I was thinking this movie was in the 80s or something. Wow.

Am I missing something? It's extreme,but there are people that disabled in real life and if that's what she's supposed to be portraying it's actually pretty accurate.

Opie and Anthony’s (I know, I know) Jim said when this came out, “she’s not acting. This is the same voice she used to goof on the slow kids back in Commack!”

It was funny when Huston was going around promoting her two volumes of autobiography (terrible, btw) she made sure nobody mentioned this. According to her the only movie she ever directed was Bastard out of Carolina.

R15 Yeah, I guess you're missing her bad acting.

Geez, can you blame her ?

I guess someone said to Rosie:

"This dramatic turn will be great for your career. It will be your Emmy you've been craving - the one that will show the world you're a serious actress aside from being a comic. It will do for you what 'Friendly Fire' did for Burnett. What 'Stone Pillow' did for Lucy. This is your moment to shine, Rosie."

And Rosie believed it.
