The tricky unfairness of life !
"
Stepmom
" is an arresting existential drama about the lives and times of a fragmented couple(Susan Sarandon and Ed Harris) with two kids. He has a fiancée (Julia Roberts) who has to deserve and then to win respect and affection from these two sensitive children whose unerring behavior is perpetual motive of comparison respect her. In order to melt this emotional iceberg, Roberts who is a successful professional photographer, will have to fight very hard to occupy her own place in the new state of things.
With all these available dramatic premises, the expectations were too high. But the screenwriters bet for a tearful approach in the third movement of the play when a sudden twist of fate will intend to make us aware about the importance of the familiar values, above any serious conceptual difference between the new visitor and the original mother.
The film is intense but the dramatic material promised even much more. Keeping in count the entire cast, it was a real waste.

Julia Roberts fan
I love this movie. I have watched it countless times. In my opinion, Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon were very believeable. The 12 year old girl, Anna, was less than desireable. She got on my last nerve. However, the little boy was very cute. Julia Roberts carried the film for me. She is such a scene stealer. This is a great movie that will tug at your heartstrings. If you have not seen this movie it would be worth your while to give it a try. You will not be disappointed.
Unexpected Responsibilities and Blessings...
Isabel (Julia Roberts) and Jackie (Susan Sarandon) have nothing in common.
Or so they think. But despite the obvious differences between them - Isabel is a Manhattan fashion photographer and Jackie is a stay-at-home mom to two kids - there is a bond growing between them.
For Luke, (Ed Harris), the children's father, is about to marry Isabel - despite his children's avowed dislike for the woman - and something is happening to Jackie that will radically alter all of their lives.
Stepmom
is a movie that I saw many years ago - first in the theater and later on VHS - and when I ordered this DVD, I knew that I would enjoy watching it over and over for many years to come.
The poignancy of this story can touch anyone out there who has ever experienced the family complications conveyed in this movie; it can deeply affect everyone who has ever lived through anything like the joy and sorrow felt by the characters.
A wonderful drama about life and the unexpected moments that linger in our memories.

I Loved this movie. I love Susan and I thought Julia did a very good job in this film. It is full of emotions, love, comflict, rivals, misunderstandings. joy. grief and forgivness and finally acceptance. I watch it often and it is new and fresh to me each time
Anna and Ben, the two children of Jackie and Luke, have to cope with the fact that their parents divoced and that there is a new woman in their father's life: Isabel, a successful photographer.
