Product Description

MY MOTHER LIKES WOMEN (A Mi Madre Le Gustan Las Mujeres) is a hilarious comedy about three sisters whose lives are thrown off-kilter by their mother's sudden sexual awakening.

Sofia, (Rosa Maria Sarda from All About My Mother), a renowned pianist, is long separated from the daughters' father. It is on the occasion of her birthday that she delivers a stunning announcement: she has fallen in love again.

Clearly smitten, she begins to describe her new lover: somewhat younger...also a pianist. The daughters, thrilled and eager to hear more, are interrupted by the doorbell. To their surprise, it's Mom's new girlfriend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very funny and sweet, June 6, 2005

By	mo (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

This movie is about family. The acting is wonderful. The performances are very funny. This is a great spanish film. The lesbian characters and plot is substantial but there is more to the film as well. It is well-done and well-rounded.

5.0 out of 5 stars wunderbar!, August 23, 2005

By	frank furt "the city" (germany) - See all my reviews

buy this movie, it's great. i mean i'm german, barely speaking any spanish and my english is also not the best (which explains why i'm writing this slow HA!) but this is a fantastic movie. the story is brilliant and the actresses are great. this is the best stuff i've seen since „the ten rules" and „late bloomers". forget all these teenager coming out stories, they are nice but this is totally different. this is not about a 15 year old sweetie that falls madly in love with her schoolmate. this is a 50 year old sweetie that falls madly in love with a cutie as old as her youngest daughter. think about the possibilities! this is drama, this is comedy, this is a movie you must have! watch it!

and if you like it, think about „gasoline" and „101 reykjavik".

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute, sassy, sexy, and witty!, November 17, 2005

By	queer movie lover - See all my reviews

This movie is great! It's a hilariously cute movie with a fun and talented
cast, a whitty script, and ultimately an adorable love story. A coming out
story with the most clever of twists, "My Mother Likes Women" ("A Mi Madre
Les Gusta Las Mujeres") is a lesbian romantic comedy classic that everyone
will adore.

Sophia is a divorced Spanish woman with three adoring, grown-up daughters.
And, as she announces during her quiet birthday celebration, she has
fallen in love. Immediately ecstatic for their mother, the three women are
stopped dead in their tracks when they discover just who their mother's
new love is -- a beautiful Czech woman closer to their age than their
mother's. The daughters' reactions are brilliantly realistic and all over
the map. Suddenly everything they thought they knew about relationships
and love is turned upside down, and everyone is sent into an uproariously
funny and tragic search for how to deal with love and desire.

Tongue-in-cheek humor throughout, this movie is absolutely a joy to watch.
If you know Spanish, it's an added bonus, but the English subtitles are
superb and easy to read. The characters are genuine, the European scenery
extravagant, and the plot extremely clever. "My Mother Likes Women" is
laced with humor, romance, and ultimately, a coming out story for
everyone. Cute, sassy, sexy, and witty. Great movie.
