    Recommend a movie--Stepmom (1998)

     
     It is an old movie but shouldn't miss it. It tells a story about mother's love and jealousy. Really love the two wonderful actresses. I couldn't help crying when I heard the lines like this. Note:  Jackie is mom and Isabel is step one.

    Isabel: You know, I never wanted to be a mom. Sharing it with you... that's one thing. It's another to be looking over my shoulder for the next twenty years, knowing someone else would have done it better... someone else would have done it right.
    Jackie Harrison: What do you have that I don't?
    Isabel: You're Mother Earth, incarnate.
    Jackie Harrison: You're... hip, and fresh.
    Isabel: You ride with Anna.
    Jackie Harrison: You'll learn.
    Isabel: You know every story, every wound, every memory. Their whole life's happiness is wrapped up in you... every single second. Don't you get it? Look down the road to her wedding. I'm in a room alone with her, fixing her veil, fluffing her dress, telling her no woman has ever looked so beautiful. And my fear is she'll be thinking, "I wish my mom was here."
    Jackie Harrison: And mine is... she won't
