Starting shooting in March (2010), the film's title is Coming Up Roses.
This is the best news!

That is great news! It sounds a bit like Grey Gardens, mother/daughter in bleak circumstances singing together to make themselves happy.

Wow - we may be in NYC around that time. I don't think I've ever actually been to Queens!

A brief description of the film from a production company post:
"COMING UP ROSES follow a mother and daughter in 1980s New Hampshire. It is a dark comedy about the power of imagination, the force of reinvention, and the perils of growing up, at any age."

Yes, that is Bernadette with straight hair. I like the puffy jacket.

She looks A LOT like her sister that way. Are we sure the hair is short? In the side view, it just looks like its pulled back. Hard to tell with the jacket coming up so high. I see she is still wearing sky high heels.

At first I thought she must be playing a waitress in the film when I saw that gingham skirt. Then I spotted the high heels, no waitress could possibly work wearing those on her feet. Though if Bernadette was waiting on tables -- what's the betting she would!

Well, she IS playing a former actress...
No, I see her as the owner of a flower shop, a dress shop, or running a motel/summer lodge, something that she is in control of. I am surprised at the costumes, I was thinking jeans & boots or a bohemian look (it's the 80s, in New Hamshire, & it's Bernadette, after all).

Very cool. I've been wondering about this film. Wish I lived in Atlanta.

Let's hope that "coming soon" really is soon. Thanks, Jean.

I don't have production photos. But, here is a clip from the film (about 1min, 38 sec long); I will not spoil it for anyone, but she does actually "kind of" sing in this clip.
