Smother Trailer, Poster and Pics
Today we present out info for “Smother“, director Vince Di Meglio’s comedy/drama starring DIane Keaton, Dax Shepard and Liv Tyler.
The movie “Smother” asks the question, What would you do if your mother moved in with you and just wouldn’t leave?
Marilyn Cooper (Diane Keaton) is one of those mothers- the kind who’ll call at 6:30 in the morning, or tell embarrassing stories about her son Noah (Dax Shepard) to complete strangers. When she suspects her husband is having an affair, she decides it’s time to “take a break”, and shows up on Noah’s doorstep with bags and five foster dogs in tow. Already having lost his job, hosting an unwelcome houseguest (Mike White) on his couch, and facing pressure from his wife Clare (Liv Tyler) to start a family despite his fears of inadequacy, Noah now finds the mother he’s always kept at a distance just a room away. He soon starts to realize that if he wants to stand up to the problems in his life, he’ll have to stand up to his mother. As heartwarming as it is hilarious, “Smother” is a family film in the truest sense of the term.
