The Good Mothers (2023– )
8/10
Outstanding, sensitive story
8 April 2023
This is a sensitive, beutifully produced story about the Calbria gangsters, a mafia-like organization that is very powerful and rich, spreading itself intelligently throughout Eurpose. The dominant clans are paranoid and possessive of their women and treat them very bady, often violently, according to this film. The ladies involved are all stunning, fine actors. The entire cast is sterling. The photography and the wrting is also beautiful. A unique solution to getting inside these criminals is the idea of inducing the women to come forward to end their violent servitude and provide better lives for their children, and it works very well. Based upon true events, this is a unique and powerful insight into the Italian criminal tradition, that continues to this day. Along the way we see fantastic photography of the calbria region and its diverse, different lifestyles. This a beautifully done story, important not just for women, but for society.
