comment
A 2005 drama film based on the novel of the same name by Victoria Redel, directed by Kevin Bacon and starring Kyra Sedgwick, along with Marisa Tomei, Campbell Scott, Oliver Platt, Matt Dillon, and Bacon.All Emily Stoll (Sedgwick) wants is a child of her own. Her yearning to be a mother stems from having been raised by inattentive parents. In time she gives birth to a boy named Loverboy AKA Paul. As the boy grows up, Emily becomes overly protective of Paul/Loverboy.Not to be confused with the 1989 comedy film of the same name.

My Beloved Smother: Emily, to the extreme. She does not want to send him to school at first. She finally yields and the anxiety overwhelms her.
