If wealth were based on the number of children bore, well, Evelyn Ryan (Moore) would be a rich woman with 10 of them, but this is not the case. Rather she is married to just-one-more-drink Kelly (Harrelson), who also has a hard time holding down a job, so, being the resourceful and talented woman that she is, she enters contest after contest, often selling items won in order to feed her family. Based upon the memoir The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio: How My Mother Raised 10 Kids on 25 Words of Less by Terry Ryan. (Jack Kelley)
