Gimme Three - A Series For Cinephiles
16 - MORE Great Mother Characters
In part two of our Mother's Day Celebration, Nick & Bella discuss three more memorable mother characters.
Claudine, starring the legendary Diahann Carroll, was a boundary-pushing film about a mother of six navigating the welfare system. The film also stars a sweaty, studly James Earl Jones.
Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal knocked it out of the park with her directorial debut, The Lost Daughter. Join Bella as she explores the touchy but important themes in this Olivia Colman drama.
Finally, another actress turned director: the great Penny Marshall's film Riding In Cars With Boys has a little bit of everything. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll dance - and you'll fall in love with Drew Barrymore all over again!
