Celebrate ‘Mother’s Day
Eve’ and Win 1 of 5 Motherhood DVDs – out on DVD 8th March
To promote the
release of MOTHERHOOD, starring Uma Thurman and Minnie Driver – ASDA
and METRODOME DISTRIBUTION will launch a special new date in the
calendar – ‘MOTHER’S DAY EVE’ - which will fall on the Saturday night
13th March before Mothering Sunday, 14th March 2010.
New comedy ‘MOTHERHOOD’ follows Uma Thurman as mother and wife racing
against the clock to prepare for her daughter's sixth birthday party in the
face of chaos.
From
writer/director Katherine Dieckmann, the acclaimed filmmaker of DIGGERS and
A GOOD BABY, comes MOTHERHOOD, starring Uma Thurman, Anthony Edwards and
Minnie Driver. Shot entirely on location in New York’s West Village, this
bittersweet comedy distils the dilemmas of the maternal state (marriage,
work, self, and not necessarily in that order) into the trials and
tribulations of one pivotal day. MOTHERHOOD forms a genre of one – no other
movie has dedicated itself in quite this way to probing exactly what it
takes to be a mother, with both wry humour and an acute sense of
authenticity.
Eliza Welch (Thurman) is a former
fiction writer-turned-mom-blogger with her own site, “The Bjorn Identity.”
Putting her deeper creative ambitions on hold to raise her two children,
Eliza lives and works in two rent-stabilized apartments in a walk-up
tenement building smack in the middle of an otherwise upscale Greenwich
Village. Eliza’s good-natured but absent-minded husband (Edwards) seems
tuned out to his wife’s conflicts, not to mention basic domestic reality,
while her best friend Sheila (Minnie Driver) understands this – and Eliza --
all too well.
MOTHERHOOD is a hymn to the joys and
sorrows of raising children, and the necessity of not losing yourself in the
process.
The DVD is available from 8th March
2010.
