Review

The intergenerational drama Household Saints (1993) stars British comedienne Tracey Ullman as a young woman in post-war Little Italy whose marriage to Vincent D’Onofrio, who wins her hand in a game of pinochle, upsets her disapproving strict Catholic mother. Lili Taylor plays their daughter, Teresa Carmela Santangelo, who tries to live up to her name with a regimen of penance and prayer aimed at becoming a saint. Luckily for us, Lili goes topless and gives us a nice look at her votaries. That will light your Advent candle!
