Happy Mother's Day with 'Mildred Pierce' and 'All About My Mother'

Call. Me. Mother! Nick and Sophia dedicate this episode to all the mothers out there by celebrating the diverse collection of moms in these two notable films. In Mildred Pierce, Joan Crawford's titular and Oscar-winning performance embraces film noir to show the lengths a motivated and hardworking mother will go to please her daughter. Then, in All About My Mother, Pedro Almodóvar's first film to win an Academy Award, a bereaved mother finds herself intertwined with the complex lives of a group of women, leading her on a healing journey of self-discovery (19:57). Lastly, they play a fun mini game, awarding superlatives to some of their favorite movie moms in the Serial Mom Awards (41:14).
