Product Description

 
MERMAIDS is the story of the turbulent relationship between a flamboyant, outrageous mom (Cher) and her two daughters (Winona Ryder and Christina Ricci) who just want a normal, stable life. Socially rebellious and provocative, the mother is reluctant to settle down, even at the request of her two daughters (one of whom, despite being Jewish, longs to enter a convent). The unusual family has moved 18 times in the last 15 years, usually whenever Mrs. Flax senses she might have to commit to a relationship. But this time the girls hope the family will stay put, and their conflicting desires lead to a final, near-tragic result.

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2007
The Bottom Line: Sorry, this one isn't for the guys.
Review: "Charlotte Flax" (Winona Ryder) takes us through a part of her life where things change again, thanks to her mother (Cher), who has the tendency to run away when things don't turn out the way she wants. This time, the "Flax" family end up in a small...
