Mother's Day is a time of celebration when we reflect upon mothers and their roles in our lives. For decades, matriarchal figures have been portrayed in cinema as immovable pillars whose unshakable influence is felt for generations.
To commemorate the occasion, we put together 9 films that span genres and styles, from surreal fantasy to horror/comedy. Whether it's the unhinged classic Mommie Dearest or the infectious melodrama of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, you'll find a little something for everyone.
