What is your favorite movie with a mothe theme?

When I think of Movie Mothers the first one that comes to mind is the mother from "Only the Lonely". This is an excellent movie and although not really meant to be a mother movie the mother is very important to it. Without her the movie would not be the same. Of course Maureen O'Hara came out of retirement to do the movie. If you haven't seen it I would recommend it. She plays a stereotypical Irish Catholic mother. I think the other that comes to mind is the original "Yours Mine and Ours" with Lucille Ball. This movie really shows what motherhood and family are all about. Lucille Ball is excellent in there. For those who may not know it Lucille Ball plays a widow with 8 kids who meets and ends up marrying a man who is a widower with 10 kids. They recently did a remake and it is one of the few remakes that I did not care for.

oh gosh there are so many good one, I remember mama was a great play too we did it in high school. I loved imitation of life, Terms of Endearment, Not without my daughter

Postcards from the edge.

For the life of me I can not think of one. I am sure I have see tons but the only movie right now with a mom that I can think of is an older movie "Stop or my Mom Will Shoot" haha. I think it has Sylvester Stalone in it? HAHA That is the first that popped in my head :)

While it isn't completely about motherhood, I would have to choose Steel Magnolias. Absolutely love that movie!

Hi there Sarahruthbeth! My favorite film about mother is Stepmom which stars Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon. I love drama and I think that it is a great movie.
