Mermaids

Description

Mermaids is a 1990 American comedy-drama film directed by Richard Benjamin. The film stars Cher as Rachel Flax, a single mother who moves with her two daughters, played by Winona Ryder and Christina Ricci, to a new town in Massachusetts in the early 1960s. The film follows the family as they navigate the challenges of growing up and coming of age.

The film explores the themes of family, love, and independence. Rachel is a free-spirited and unconventional mother who is more concerned with her own happiness than her daughters' well-being. However, as her daughters begin to experience their own struggles and challenges, Rachel is forced to confront her own shortcomings as a mother. The film also touches on the issue of gender roles and the changing attitudes towards women's roles in society during the 1960s.

Overall, Mermaids is a poignant and humorous portrayal of family dynamics and the challenges of growing up. The film's themes of love and independence are still relevant today, making it a timeless classic. Cher delivers a strong performance as Rachel, and Ryder and Ricci shine as her daughters. The film's 1960s setting and soundtrack add to its charm and nostalgia, making it a must-see for fans of coming-of-age films.

Comedy & Humor
An amusingly ridiculous black comedy "Seven Psychopaths" is a McDonagh's next masterpiece created in a black comedy genre. It tells the story about an author, Marty who is out of inspiration to finish his novel "Seven Psychopaths". Marty is played by an Irish actor, Collin Farrell who may be known to you by his roles in Minority Report (2002), In Bruges (2008) and Total Recall (2012). His friend Billy tries his best to help Marty to finish writing the book "inspiring" him by getting into the troubles, constantly. Billy is portrayed by Sam Rockwell, who is known to you as Sam Bell from Moon (2009) and Kenneth Waters from Conviction (both are serious roles in the serious films with lots of awards and nominations). Billy is a pure criminal with sadistic attitudes, but he is lovely one. Besides his kind heart, he has a crime-partner Hans. This next psychopath is played by Christopher Walken. This great American actor needs no introduction – you know his awesome roles in Kill the Irishman (2012), Hairspray (2007) and Man of the Year (2006). The next psychopath is Charlie (portrayed by Woodrow Tracy "Woody" Harrelson: No Country for Old Men, The Messenger, Defendor, Zombieland). His beloved dog, a rare Shih Tzu was kidnapped by Billy and Hans, and all the movie's action unfolds in this pivotal point. There we meet Angela, played by the "Bond Girl" Olga Kurylenko, Kaya (Abbie Cornish) and Zachariah (Tom Waits) – the last two of the "Seven Psychopaths".
