Anna and Ben, the two children of Jackie Susan Sarandon and Luke Ed Harris , have to cope with the fact that their parents divorced and that there is a new woman in their father's life: Isabel Julia Roberts , a successful photographer. She does her best to treat the kids in a way that makes them still feel at home when being with their dad, but also loves her work and does not plan to give it up. But Jackie, a full-time mother, regards Isabel's efforts as offensively insufficient. She can't understand that work can be important to her as well as the kids. The conflict btw them is deepened by the sudden diagnose of cancer, which might may be deadly for Jackie.

Midway through the emotional turmoil of Stepmom, one of those scenes occurs that usually feels so phony that serious filmgoers shake their heads with contempt. It's one of those moments where actors grab a hairbrush or whatever is handy and start lip-synching to a Motown classic that is expected to speak for their troubled, hopeful spirits. This time, the song is Ain't No Mountain High Enough, a pledge of eternal devotion that a divorced mother and her two children cue when their future looks bleak.

Stepmom (1998)
The first was that I knew exactly where this domestic drama was headed and could predict scenes and confrontations far down the road. The second was that I knew we were still 90 minutes away from the closing credits. As the film ever-so-slowly unfolded, I began to realize what five credited screenwriters can buy you: perhaps the most inefficient screenplay of the year. There's some promising human drama in the premise, which begins with conflict in an extended family. Making the task even harder is Luke's ex-wife Jackie Susan Sarandon , who undercuts Isabel at every turn and rails at her every parenting miscue. What Isabel doesn't know is that Jackie is battling an even tougher adversary than a potential stepmother for her children: cancer. As she confronts her mortality, Jackie also confronts her fears of being replaced in her children's hearts. That's an interesting enough twist on the complicated emotions and allegiances of extended family interactions, one that could have made a tidy feature weeper.
By Frida Oskarsdottir. I was 11 when it came out and probably watched it ten times over the next few years. I think I was finally at the age where I could appreciate a good weepy movie and I cried Every. So, here I am at the ripe old age of 30 taking another look. If this were , it would be a podcast. Miss you guys! Can you frazzle Julia Roberts? Anyway, now the audience knows that, thank god, Julia has never given birth because, I mean, look at her.
