Lawn Dogs is a 1997 Southern Gothic fantasy drama film directed by John Duigan, written by Naomi Wallace, and starring Sam Rockwell, Mischa Barton, Christopher McDonald, and Kathleen Quinlan. Its plot focuses on a precocious, antisocial young girl from an affluent suburban gated community in Kentucky who befriends a redneck landscaper, and examines the societal repercussions of their friendship. Filmed in Louisville and Danville, Kentucky, Lawn Dogs was an international co-production between the United Kingdom and United States, and produced by British film producer Duncan Kenworthy. It was the final film financed by the Rank Organisation. The Rank Group sold its film interests to Carlton Communications in April 1997 and in September that company shut down Rank's distribution and production arms. Lawn Dogs won numerous film awards at film festivals in Europe and was met with generally positive reviews, with praise for the performances of Barton and Rockwell in particular.
