Why is
that every time a child is sick, a mother has to sacrifice her career, and her
passion and stay home to take care of that child? Sigh! (Sadly, my Mom did the
same when I had some health condition and Dad made her resign from her job and
stay home so that I could be taken care of properly and recover. I can
understand her plight now that I am a mother too).
I chanced
upon this movie while flipping through the channels one fine day. I watched
this movie for Cate Blanchett. It connected instantly and I think lot of moms
who have given up their career and passion for sake of their kids or elders at
home can easily relate to this movie. I love the manner Cate played the role of
a frustrated, desperate mom Bernadette, who is a well-known and famous
architect, and yet for sake of her daughter Bee gave away all her passion. But
she is the apple of her eye and their lives revolve around each other.
I
appreciate the director, writer, and Cate for showing the emotions of what of
mother goes through, how she feels frustrated, and how isolated she feels when
her husband, whom she trusted and loved refuses to understand her dilemma and
calls her mentally unstable.
I loved watching this movie and would recommend one and all to watch it.
