Mother's Boys $9.99 Jamie Lee Curtis stars as a wife and mother of three boys who suddenly abandoned them. When her family is just getting over her, and her husband engaged, here she comes again, wanting her family back. Sexual advances toward her husband don't work, so she tries to win her boys back by preying on the oldest by letting him drive (he's 12), appearing nude in front of him, and as with all three kids letting them call her by her first name (a very cool "Jude"). She wins them over long enough to remind them of a game they used to play. But this version's a killer and its victim is her husband's fiancee (JoAnn Whalley). Vanessa Redgrave gives a fine performance as Jude's mother, who would rather see JoAnn Whalley win this battle over the family. (I have also seen this movie under the title "Mother's Boys".) ![My Girl 2 [VHS]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51FCZ3QVQ1L._SL160_.jpg) My Girl 2 [VHS] $14.95 Picking up the story several years after the events of the first "My Girl" (a surprise worldwide sleeper hit in 1991), 1994's MY GIRL 2 reunites us once again with the irrepressible Vada Sultenfuss and her wacky family. With new stepmother Shelley (Jamie Lee Curtis) heavily pregnant and the entire Sultenfuss household overtaken with baby plans, a pensive Vada (Anna Chlumsky) decides to investigate her own mother, who died during childbirth. Shelley arranges for Vada to spend a vacation in Los Angeles with Uncle Phil (Richard Masur) and his new "family": Rose (Christine Ebersole) and her adolescent son Nick (Austin O'Brien). It's a summer of discovery, soul-searching and heartache, as Vada uncovers her mother's past and the events which led to her own birth... Anna Chlumsky again delivers a solid turn as Vada, settling the character nicely into the awkward teen years with great skill. Jamie Lee Curtis and Dan Aykroyd (as Vada's parents) don't really figure into the plot this time but it's nice having them "around" anyway. Austin O'Brien provides strong support as Vada's verbal sparring partner (much the same as Macaulay Culkin's Thomas J. from the first film); Masur and Ebersole undercut the possible sentimentality, always a problem in this sort of story. Providing a fitting finale for Vada and the events of the first movie, MY GIRL 2 is that rare sequel which can stand proud against it's predecessor.
