Mothering Sunday
2021 · 1h 44m · Romance, Drama
A gorgeously shot period romance with real emotional weight—if you're in the mood for something tender and melancholic rather than thrilling. The Rotten Tomatoes score confirms it's worth your time, even if it won't blow your mind.
Plot
On a warm spring day in 1924, house maid and foundling Jane Fairchild finds herself alone on Mother's Day. Her employers, Mr. and Mrs. Niven, are out and she has the rare chance to spend quality time with her secret lover. Paul is the boy from the manor house nearby, Jane's long-term love despite the fact that he's engaged to be married to another woman, a childhood friend and daughter of his parents' friends. But events that neither can foresee will change the course of Jane's life forever.
