Could Katie's Mom have been poor or something?

Dina Meyer stars in the 2023 comedy Katie;s Mom. I was interested in this film when it made some noise at various film festivals last year. I was wondering why it did not get distribution but I managed to see it this weekend on Tubi.The movie has a sultry plot when a recently divorced mother has an affair with her daughter's boyfriend. They realize it's wrong, the daughter gets hurt but mom finds herself as she starts out on a new adventure around the world.One problem, no one seems to really get hurt.Ms. Meyer, in her mid-50s when she shot this project, still looks very pretty and has long since won the genetics lottery. Here, her character is living in the Southern California home that she obtained in her divorce from her ... wait for it... Plastic Surgeon ex-husband. It comes with an in-ground lap pool and wonderful views.The publicity, for this movie, said it is like The Graduate, as told from Mrs. Robinson's point of view. If you recall that classic film, Director Mike Nicols kept the then 36 year old Anne Bancroft away from the daily rushes because she was being filmed to look so beat up that he feared seeing what was being done to her would soar her on the project. Alias, no such ugly stick beatings would work with Dina Meyer.Therefore, I wish she had been poor. It would have been something to provide sympathy for her character's attempt at showing sorrow. Also, it would have distracted us from examining the plot's attempts to mimic An Unmarried Woman, Breakfast At Tiffany's and the aforementioned 1967 classic of the true mother/daughter house.

Comedy???

Far from funny, and a total suspension of reality is necessary in order to like this mess.Now I find it hard to fathom Nancy lowering her standards to pig sty level, which is where she would need to go with that bum her daughter drug home.So that aspect of this comedy that I abandoned after 25 minutes of pure boredom and face palming disbelief as this bum was revealed for what it is and the mother still kissed him after hanging out one day. Instead of Katie's Mom, it should have been called Katie's THOT or That Ho Over There. Which is more appropriate for what I witnessed on TV.Nope, definitely not something that I would recommend.

needed rewrites

Overall story feels a bit like a first draft but had some fun moments. Main lady and katie's bf were good, but some of the other acting was spotty. Some plot points were way too stereotypical . Like, a woman in her 50s doesn't know about menopause?? You'd expect that coming from male creators, but apparently women wrote this. I guess that was just the easiest way to tie things up (not a surprise given the entire plot is based on a 50 year old movie. They weren't trying to reinvent the wheel here). Also take issue with the happy ending which is so unrealistic. The daughter should cut ties with her mom or intervene because she's clearly mentally ill and needs help. Anyway, iff you watch this and want to stop it after an hour, you won't be alone. Way too long.
