Mermaids

Netflix says this movie is a steamy, quirky, romantic teen comedy.  I was totally in the mood for that, so I tried it.  It's actually a dark, emotional, strange, lovely movie, but don't watch it if you're in the mood for quirky fun.  It's Cher as the flaky single Jewish mother of Winona Ryder and a very young Christina Ricci in the 60s.  It's a coming of age story for both Winona and Cher's characters.  B+
