Saoirse Ronan is back in yet another gut wrenching Dramedy that is receiving high reviews and has already been named best movie at the 2017 New York Film Critics Circle this year.
Greta Gerwig‘s Lady Bird is a coming of age movie about a mother and daughter relationship and what happens when 17-year-old, Christine “Lady Bird” McPherson gets ready to go to college. Actress Laurie Metcalf plays her judgmental mother whose tough love drives the basis for Lady Bird wanting to go to an East Coast school away from her hometown of Sacramento.
All in all, the dramedy includes some very real moments of what nearly every mother and daughter go through at some point and time and shows that though they may not always get along, the love between them is ultimately stronger than any other love.
Lady Bird came out in theaters November 1 and has since its release already brought in over 12.5 million domestically at the box office. It’s a movie for anyone who is a daughter or has a daughter as it shows what each has to go through when getting ready to leave home for the first time.
Lady Bird is still playing in a theater near you.
