What is she sad about? Basically everything. Her marriage is falling apart, she’s the most gossiped-about woman in the world, and now she has to spend three days with her husband’s relatives and their servants . Unable to conform to stultifying Victorian tradition, Diana fully dissociates, fantasizing about self-harm and having paranoid visions of Anne Boleyn.
How does she feel about being a mom? Funny you should ask: She hates it. In fact, The Lost Daughter gives us three sad moms for the price of one.
Catríona Balfe, Belfast Photo: Focus Features The role: Ma, a housewife trying to keep her family afloat during the sectarian turmoil of late-’60s Belfast. What is she sad about? For one, the government is dragging its heels on her attempts to shed light on the Civil War massacre. And two, after her baby is born, she gets a few heartbreaking surprises that I won’t spoil, but let’s just say they complicate her relationship with the child, and with Ana. Does Janis reveal the truth, or does she find a way to live with the lie? It’s historical trauma and steamy melodrama all at once — a classic Pedro Almódovar mix.
How does she feel about being a mom? Depression aside, Irene has a reasonable amount of love for her kids, though like everything she loves, they too become a battleground between her and Clare. When even they seem to prefer the other woman, it’s close to the final straw. Aunjanue Ellis, King Richard Photo: Warner Bros. The role: Oracene “Brandy” Price, matriarch of America’s most famous tennis family.
