Mermaids

A film for everyone whose mother ever drove them crazy, this quirky comedy/drama stars Cher as Rachel Flax, a free-spirited single mother living with her two daughters--teenager Charlotte (Winona Ryder) and 9-year-old Kate (Christina Ricci)--in a small New England town in 1963. While increasingly at odds with Charlotte, Rachel is romanced by a local shoe salesman (Bob Hoskins) who'd like to become part of the family. Michael Schoeffling co-stars. 110 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital Surround, Spanish Dolby Digital mono, French Dolby Digital Surround; Subtitles: French, Spanish; theatrical trailer; scene access.
