Uma certainly looks like someone familiar in her upcoming flick MOTHERHOOD, you betcha...

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Now this doesn't really seem like our average story here, but we do cover more than the male geek shit sometimes (look at Harry's unadulterated crush on TWILIGHT for example).

We have a picture premiere for a film called MOTHERHOOD starring Uma Thurman, Anthony Edwards, Mini Driver and the great Daily Show regular Samantha Bee which will be premiering at Sundance. I think I'm going to be sitting Sundance out this year, unfortunately, but I'd be making a point to see this movie if I was going... if only that I really enjoyed director Katherine Dieckmann's last film, DIGGERS, starring Paul Rudd, Ken Marino and Maura Tierney.

Here's the pic we're premiering and I'll include a little rundown of the plot below it... Uma certainly looks a tad familiar there...



Looks like she should be shooting wolves, right? Poor Dieckmann... you know they had no idea someone would be in the national spotlight and ruin that look... but on the bright side, if Tina Fey ever wants to take a break, we know who could fill in on SNL...

Here's the synopsis that came with the pic:

Eliza Welch (Thurman) is like any other mom with two kids, a charming but absent-minded husband (Anthony Edwards), her own mom-blog ("The Bjorn Identity"), and the prospect of middle age lurking right around the corner --except Eliza lives in two separate 6th-floor walk-up tenement apartments in New York’s otherwise chic Greenwich Village, and she’s having a day that would challenge even the toughest maternal multi-tasker.

Faced with the prospect of entering a contest to become a columnist for upscale parenting magazine "Lunchbox" AND throwing her daughter’s 6th birthday party, Eliza also has to contend with alternate side parking, a film crew commandeering her block, taking her toddler son to a playground full of overzealous moms, navigating NYC's uniquely hostile shopping lines, accidentally blog-sharing her best friend's (Minnie Driver) intimate secret, and realizing what is truly valuable in her life.… all in one day

I know that doesn't sound like something you'd immediately run out to see, but then again a drama about Long Island clam diggers sounds about as exciting as watching grass grow, but that was a great little flick.
