"Star Wars reminds me of my mother, who didn’t let me see color movies until I was 12. I was raised on Alexander Nevsky and Chaplin and all of these insane movies that would just put a 10-year-old to sleep quicker than a shack of sheep. But Star Wars was my first departure from that rule, and it just blew my mind. It was the first color film I saw, and it just knocked me out. I don’t think I ever forgave my mother after I saw that film. But also just the kind of iconoclastic myth retelling that combined with science fiction, which has always been huge to me."

2017 | Drama, Fantasy, Thriller
This is a movie that I have enjoyed so much from start to finish, the giants are amazingly done, you don’t get to see much of them, but when you do, you have the feeling of their sheer power and fear that Barbara is creating in these creatures.

But with the underlying story that her mother is ill and she takes herself off into a fantasy world to battle giants to escape the reality of true-life is so nicely done, I found myself very emotional towards the end of the film, but still lifted that Barbara has fought her way through against giants, bullies and the fears of losing her mother.

A Hidden Gem
I was looking for something to watch and I stumbled upon I Am Mother in the recently added section on Netflix. The trailer intrigued me and so we sat down to watch it and wow, what a hidden gem. The plot and characters were fantastic and so worth watching.
