Motherhood Screening: Sun. Oct 11th, 2009 @ 6:30 PM - Sequoia Theatre, Mill Valley, CA SPONSORED BY CHRISTOPHER B. AND JEANNIE MEG SMITH, AND FRANTOIO RISTORANTE AND OLIVE OIL CO.
Ever had one of those days, only to realize they've actually stacked up into years? Well . . . welcome to Motherhood, where protagonist-mom and one-time promising writer Eliza Welch (Uma Thurman) is desperately trying to keep it together over the course of a "fateful day in the life"—and the devil, along with the knowing laughs, is in the details. Astride a haywire conveyor belt of domestic chores and hassles, Eliza must carry off her six-year-old's Manhattan birthday party and somehow also meet a major writing deadline—all while setting a new career course, herding the toddler and—why not?—flirting with a handsome young messenger. Backed by fine supporting work from Minnie Driver and Anthony Edwards, an ever-luminous Thurman infuses Eliza with a frazzled grace, beautifully channeling all the harried energy, pointed wit and pervasive real-world charm in writer-director Katherine Dieckmann's hysterically spot-on vision of thoroughly modern motherhood. —Kristine Kolton
