Why watch the movie Mrs. Lowry & Son?
"This film is a portrait of the artist Laurence Stephen Lowry, or L.S. Lowry (played here by Timothy Spall), an English modernist painter, and the relationship he had with his mother, Elizabeth (Vanessa Redgrave), who tries to dissuade him from pursuing his career. It is a completely toxic relationship, making Lowry have a desperate need for acceptance. 'Mrs. Lowry & Son' is a movie that makes us think about how parents shape their children - for better or for worse. Spall and Redgrave are impeccable in the feature film, which gives even more density to the story."
