Broadcast News | Mother

This month is Albert Brooks month.  I like his little films and how he sees life, so I have chosen two I particularly like.   First of all Albert Brooks was a stand up comedian and had some small parts in films.   1980's -1990's co-wrote directed and starred in some well received comedies.   Sometimes he plays a neurotic character .  First up is Broadcast News 1987 a romantic comedy starring William Hurt, Albert Brooks and Holly Hunter.   The film is about three people that work in a newsroom in Washington D.C., there personal relationships that happen.   Love it and cheering for Aaron to win the girl.

Next up, Mother 1996 comedy drama starring Debbie Reynolds.   Albert plays the character John, a sci-fi writer who is ending his second marriage he can not figure out what had gone wrong  again.   He decides to move back in with his mother hoping to figure out his life.    

I would like to host April movie night.   I will be returning to Maine towards the end of the  month.   I will be in contact with everyone as the time gets closer.   
 Have a wonderful Easter !     Movielynne
