Uma Thurman in “Motherhood”
Posted by Rodneyon 17. 04. 2008in News Chat
Uma Thurman will be joining Minnie Driver and Anthony Edwards in the low budget comedy Motherhood. The folks over at variety.com give us the film’s plot:
The day-in-the-life feature has Thurman as a harried mother of two prepping for her daughter’s sixth birthday party as myriad urban challenges confront her.
Driver will be playing Thurman’s best friend, Edwards her husband. The filming will take place over 25 days and the budget is around 10 million dollars (low budget is a relative term).
I’m not impressed with this movie’s premise, it seems Thurman is always playing a harried person on screen. Do I want to watch Thurman rush around being a “normal” mom getting ready for a birthday party? No, I don’t really want to see a real mom do that.
Nothing against the mothers of the world but I am simply not interested in being any more informed about how frustrating motherhood is, walking around a mall is enough.

I don’t agree, honey. Since when does a film just reflect real life. It’s a comedy isn’t it? So lighten up! I look forward to laughing at a tall beautiful actress having to go through the day-to-day frustrations that we earthlings do! ta-ta!
Uma Thurman is a Hollywood star. I am a big fan of her. She always looking amazing on screen. I love her movie. I just seen her upcoming movie “Motherhood” promo http://www.clipta.com/Motherhood_Trailer__v6815087801 and extremely excited to watch this movie.
I have to agree with the two moms here…I am ready to see and hopefully laugh at how hollywood thinks our lives are really like. From the preview they look pretty right on. Maybe all that stuff doesn’t happen in one day – but it does happen. At least to me…and that is why I started blogging. I actually wanted to start writing a book, a fiction book about a frazzled mom and her experiences in motherhood…HOllywood just beat me to it ~ bummer.
