The bond between a mother and son is a very special one. Love is at the forefront, of course, but there are limits. When a marriage ends, the child may feel a few things, one of which is fear and concern that he or she will “lose” their parent. Eventually, that parent will probably develop feelings for another and this might instill feelings of jealousy and resentment from the child. The new French film Lolo explores this conflict and while it feels a tad similar to more mainstream films like, say, Cyrus, it is a film with more heart and better comedic moments. Writer, director, and star Julie Delpy shows off her skills here and the results are actually rather moving.
