Queen bees [videorecording] / Director, Michael Lembeck.
While her house undergoes repairs, fiercely independent senior Helen temporarily moves into a nearby retirement community. Once behind the doors of Pine Grove Senior Community, she encounters lusty widows, cutthroat bridge tournaments and a hotbed of bullying 'mean girls' the likes of which she hasn't encountered since high school, all of which leaves her yearning for the solitude of home. But somewhere between flower arranging and water aerobics Helen discovers that it's never too late to make new friends and perhaps even find a new love.

In the wake of a house fire, willful senior Helen Wilson (Ellen Burstyn) told herself that her stay at a nearby retirement center would just be for a month. She hadn't reckoned on the persistent flirtations of resident Dan Simpson (James Caan)-or the overbearing presence of the facility's mean-girl clique (Ann-Margret, Jane Curtin, Loretta Devine) known as the "Queen Bees." Engaging sunset-years ensemble piece co-stars Christopher Lloyd, French Stewart, Elizabeth Mitchell. 100 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
