Sordid Lives (2000)
A black comedy about white trash.
Starring Olivia Newton-John, Kirk Geiger, Beau Bridges

'Sordid Lives' is about a family in a small Texas town preparing for the funeral of the mother. Among the characters are the grandson trying to find his identity in West Hollywood, the son who has spent the past twenty-three years dressed as Tammy Wynette, the sister and her best friend (who live in delightfully kitschy homes), and the two daughters (one strait-laced and one quite a bit looser).
