My Mother's Wedding (2023)

Amy and I enjoyed this sweet drama with a few laughs about three adult daughters at the wedding of their mother. Kristin Scott Thomas makes her directorial debut and stars as the mother of Emily Beecham, Scarlett Johansson, and Sienna Miller.

Thomas co-wrote the script with her husband John Mickelthwait and the original score, which I can't find online, is by Rolfe Kent. Yves Bélanger provides pretty pictures of gorgeous English locations. And I found Scar-jo's English accent pretty believable.

Thomas was last blogged for acting in The Party, Johansson for Fly Me to the Moon, Miller for Burnt, Kent for Stan & Ollie, and Bélanger for Brooklyn. Beecham, with dozens of other credits, and Mickelthwait, a first-time screenwriter, are not known to me.

Rotten Tomatoes critics and audiences want a divorce, averaging 41 and 50%, respectively. We rented it on December 28.
