A.K.A.: Mothers Day
Starring: Selma Blair, Luke Mitchell, Christina Ricci, Ashanti, Sebastian Siegel, Courteney Cox, Sharon Stone and Susan Sarandon.

Interwoven vignettes of motherhood seen through the eyes of a photographer who is herself, pregnant. Typical run of the mill tapestry film has a few funny and touching moments. The pacing is slow and it takes time to get started but there is a satisfactory conclusion to it. If for no other reason, it is worth watching because of the cast.

Starring: Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, Aaron Paul, Diane Kruger, Bruce Greenwood, Jane Fonda and Octavia Spencer.

A Pulitzer Prize winning author struggles with being a widower and a father after a nervous breakdown, while, 27 years later his daughter struggles to forge connections of her own. Ultimately a sad story is an interesting character study and a strong contender for showing to psychology, psychiatry and social worker students. Fine acting by a great cast and an interesting set of characters make this a film worth watching.
