Title: The most goyish jewish mother in the world.
Review: However did they convince us Streep was the best actress of her time? The female De Niro! Here she tops even her Lindy Chamberlain Australian travesty. Australians still laugh at her accent in that "performance". Here she channels Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie to play a wooden Jewish psychologist. Her "Jewish" mannerisms do not ring true at all. All stereotypes and woodenness. Merryl honey, find me a New York Jewish psychologist as inarticulate and mumbling as the one you portrayed. Yeah right! The plot is weak and strained as it tries to parlay a single idea into a whole movie. Uma Thurman is the best thing in this movie and that's pretty faint praise my friends.Avoid this film like the plague. It has the feeling of made for TV at best.
