Stories We Tell
In The Name of The Mother
Official Website | Trailers & MoÂ
PG-13 | 108 min
Sarah Polley is awesomes.  She’s an actress, and also a director.  She directed my 5th favorite movie of 2007 – Away From Her!  That movie was about holding onto to loved ones before they are taken from us, both mentally and physically.  Her latest movie – Stories We Tell – is kinda a movie, but more like a documentary, but not exactly a documentary, and it’s about holding onto loved ones who have been taken from us, only physically, but not mentally.  The person gone is her most beloved & wild mother Diane Polley.  She’s been dead for 23 years and apparently left behind a lot of stories to tell, so Sarah approached all who loved her to tell her story cause her mom can’t tell her own story.  The stories end up being BEYOND revealing, and as the tangled web that is Diane Polley slowly untangles, not only will Sarah’s perception of her mom change, but the perception of herself too.  And shiz is CRAY CRAYYYY.  It’s not fair to say how or why or what or who (or when?), but it’s fair to say that if you skip this film, you’re skipping one of the year’s best.  A true revelation, naked and bare, for all to see and share.  Do Tell
