Review of Anywhere but Here (1999) by Jamey T — 29 Jun 2011
This is a touching drama about an eccentric mother and her down-to-earth daughter, and the struggles they face as they attempt to make their way in this world. Ann (Natalie Portman) consistently presses her mother, Adele (Susan Sarandon), to allow her to talk to her father, and has to deal with the consequences when the conversation doesnâ(TM)t go as planned. Adele has to learn to allow her daughter to grow up, and accept that sheâ(TM)s more responsible than her mother. The love between the two is evident, and it is an interesting drama to get caught up in.
There is some profanity and references to sexuality, but it is an overall clean film with some lessons to be learned. I enjoyed it.
