Plot summary

When Joy Pride, a groovy 70s burn-out on the caboose of the flower power movement learns she has weeks to live, her estranged children come together to do right by a mother who always did them wrong. It's based on the premise that no matter who dies, we always find a way to make it all about us.

Movie Reviews

Reviewed by debonator 7 / 10

This is real life

If anyone has ever been with someone in hospice or a parent/step parent dying, this is so relatable. Otherwise, it may be the reason for some low reviews.This movie shows a family that is given the rare opportunity to process what happened in their lives, and discover who their mother really was, and how it affected who they became. It's a telling story of the lies and facades people put on to be who they want others to think they are, or who they wanted to be. It shows a slice of the truth to each of them, so they can let go, and accept what was and what is now. Would like to have seen more emotion from the mother, but maybe that was her character. She looked to young and well to be the mother.

Realness

I see the reality in this movie. Many won't ever have to deal with the truth of this story but for those have, this is a story that needed to be told. Thank you.
