कहानी

Stepmom (1998) When successful businesswoman Jackie Taylor (Julia Roberts) learns that her estranged husband Luke (Edward Norton) is engaged to Isabel Kelly (Julianne Moore), a career-driven woman with no children of her own, she feels like she's losing everything that matters. As the three of them navigate their new roles, tensions run high as Jackie struggles to come to terms with being replaced. As Isabel tries to fit in and win over Luke's children from his previous marriage, Lucy (Linda Heinrich) and Ben (Jason Danley), they are initially resistant to her attempts at motherly love. However, when Isabel reveals a hidden talent for connecting with the kids on their own level, Jackie begins to feel threatened and insecure about her place in their lives. As the story unfolds, we see the complex relationships between these characters unfold. Isabel's no-nonsense approach to life clashes with Jackie's more emotional and nurturing nature, leading to a series of humorous misunderstandings and hurtful confrontations. Meanwhile, Luke tries to find common ground among his two women, but ultimately finds himself stuck in the middle. Throughout the film, Roberts and Moore deliver standout performances as they bring depth and nuance to their characters. Their portrayal of two strong-willed women with different values and priorities serves as a poignant reminder that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to motherhood or relationships. As the characters face various challenges and setbacks, Stepmom ultimately becomes a heartwarming tale about love, family, and the power of human connection.
