Movies about daughters and mothers

Mother and daughter have a very strong mental bond that lasts throughout life. Today’s collection of films will be about that. We recommend watching. Interesting films for the whole family very carefully and without distraction, because only in this case you can get the desired effect from positive emotions.



The six films we have prepared are not just entertaining gum to pass the evening, but deep, beautiful films that reveal the essence only for the attentive viewer. And how else, if the topic of relations of the closest people can not be conveyed in some way frivolous.

The film is based on real events and tells about the difficult relationship of the family “not like everyone else”. His mother is a detached artist, and his father is an unemployed man who has a very strange view of the world and alcohol problems. Together with their very young children, they wander around the United States, live almost in the open air, run away from bank collectors, in short, lead an absolutely antisocial lifestyle.

But what happens when children grow up, take their lives into their own hands, and stop being totally dependent on their less responsible parents? The main character is torn between her real life with a successful fiancé and career on the one hand and her relationship with her parents on the other. The film is based on an autobiographical book that was on the New York Times bestseller list for 250 weeks.

Mermaids is a very bright movie that is suitable for viewing for the whole family. A single mother (played by Cher) flees life problems with her two young daughters. It is worth noting that the action of the picture takes place in the States of the 60s, so some conventions can now be believed with great difficulty.

The youngest daughter, nine-year-old Kate, dreams of becoming a champion in swimming and actively prepares for this, training in the home bath. But the eldest, fifteen-year-old Charlotte, obsessed with religion and terribly worried about the recent first kiss with the boy. Their mother tries to arrange a personal life, not forgetting to raise daughters. The beautiful cast and plot of the melodrama of the “old school” will not leave anyone indifferent.

Little Women is a fresh adaptation of classic American literature. Four different in nature girls, who are also sisters, trying to get along with each other. The story takes place in not the most humane times of the Civil War, but love for the mother, optimism and inner core help girls overcome everything.



This moving film looks in one breath, and it does not matter if you saw its old adaptation of 1994. Here you will also see how young, but nevertheless brave personalities are formed, faced with such “eternal” problems as first love, disappointment, injustice of life and, nevertheless, do not lose the inner spark of kindness and hope.
In rolesSaoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh

Mildred Pierce is a dramatic miniseries about the life of a woman and her daughters during the Great Depression. This is not the first adaptation of the novel by James Caine, back in 1945, a good black and white feature film of the same name was released. The action of the series takes us a little further from the TV-variation.

Thirty years, USA. Mildred Pierce just finds out about the departure of her husband to another woman. But she does not lose heart and takes two daughters so that instead of the traditional housewife with children for those years, she becomes a waitress and... get rich. But raising daughters doesn’t always happen the way we want them to. The selfishness of native children and their own weakness can play a cruel joke even with a seemingly successful woman.
In rolesKate Winslet, Evan Rachel Wood, Guy Pierce

Anywhere But Here is based on the biographical book by American writer Mona Simpson, who, by the way, was the sister of Steve Jobs (founder of Apple). He didn’t know about it until he was 27. The story, full of drama and sometimes bitter irony, follows a single mother and her only daughter. Susan Sarandon refused to participate in the film unless her daughter played Natalie Portman.

So, the mother personifies a “jumping dragonfly”, seeking a better life, a very bright woman with a great sense of humor and success among men. Her daughter does not share her mother's frivolous dreams and prefers to stand on her feet and look at life with a calm look of a confident person. Although they look like fire and ice, they are actually very similar and need each other’s company. It’s a good movie, but it requires a good mood.
In rolesSusan Sarandon, Natalie Portman, Hart Bockner
Year: 1999

August/August: Osage County is based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. This, in fact, a chamber film tells about the meeting of numerous relatives at one family table. It was the sad news of the loss of a family member. However, the meeting does not bode well: the constant quarrels and disassembly of distant and close relatives will make the viewer both think and make him laugh for good.

A huge layer of famous actors, an excellent production and a witty script will tell the viewer several intriguing stories at once, and in fact the actors do not even need to get up from the table.

Well, you have a great opportunity to get acquainted with a good project, which may not know your acquaintances.

As you can see, films can have one common theme, even one country of production. However, the genres can be completely different. "So what?" we say. The main thing is well-written characters, high-quality script and sensual play of actors. If you mix all this into one movie dish, it will turn out well and interesting, just what a sophisticated viewer needs.
