1996 Mother (The Criterion Collection) Blu-ray - amazon.com/dp/B0D4F5JPW2
From the mind of Albert Brooks comes Mother..
Reeling after his second divorce and struggling with writer’s block, sci-fi novelist John Henderson (Albert Brooks) resolves to figure out where his life went wrong, and hits on an unorthodox solution: moving back in with his relentlessly disapproving, cheerfully passive-aggressive mother (Debbie Reynolds), whose favorite son has always been John’s younger brother, Jeff (Rob Morrow). It’s an experiment that, however harebrained, delivers surprising results. Brooks’s film perfectly blends the writer-director-star’s biting wit with insight and inviting warmth, while giving him a formidable foil in the delightful Reynolds, triumphant in a comeback role that’s equal parts caustic and charming.
Mother remains Brooks's highest-grossing directorial effort to date, earning $19.1 million at the box office.
Mother has won the most awards of the films Brooks has directed. Brooks and co-writer Monica Johnson won the New York Film Critics Circle Award and the National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Screenplay. Debbie Reynolds won the Satellite Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.
