Summary:
Stepmom: Jackie (Susan Sarandon) is a divorced mother of two. Isabel (Julia Roberts) is the career minded girlfriend of Jackie’s ex-husband Luke (Ed Harris), forced into the role of unwelcome stepmother to their children. It is the universal dilemma of the ‘non-traditional family’, they all love the children but the complex interplay between parents, step-parents, step-children, ex-spouses and significant others is decidedly tricky. But when Jackie discovers she is ill, both women realise they must put aside their differences to find a common ground and celebrate life to the fullest, while they have the chance.
My Best Friend’s Wedding: Roberts dazzles as the commitment-shy Julianne Potter, who suddenly realises she is in love with her best friend Michael. There’s one catch…he’s about to marry someone else. Now she has to win him back. And with just four days, the help of her resourceful boss and the benefits of an extremely devious mind, Jules will do anything to get her man…except tell him the honest truth.
