Ok, I have a very vague memory of this film, but I believe it came out in the early 90's. It might be a made-for-TV movie...
Anyway, the plot that I remember is of this older lady, who has a mental disability (she has the mind of a child kind of thing), and she grew up in the South during the time of the KKK. In her youth she befriended a black boy (not sure if he was a worker of her family's) and then he is caught by the KKK and she witnesses his hanging.
The movie goes back and forth between her youth and then the present. I think at one point, in the present time, she befriends another little boy (her nephew or a neighbor's son) and she tells him the stories of growing up.
Sorry it's so vague. But I hope someone can help me. I'd really appreciate it. Oh, and for some reason, I remember "rose" being in the title of the film. :-/

Sounds like it may be THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN. Excellent movie. It stars Cicley Tyson.
