TEN HEARTWARMING MOTHER and DAUGHTER SCENES
Note: the following list will contain spoilers
ADALINE and FLEMMING from THE AGE OF ADALINE
Adding this mostly because it’s a unique mother and daughter bond, yes, but also because the scenes between these two are sweet. Purchase the film on Prime or Apple
BARBIE and RUTH from BARBIE
This isn’t exactly one of the mother and daughter scenes, but it kind of works like one since Ruth is the creator of Barbie, and she gives her some advice, which is what Barbie didn’t realize she truly did need. Stream the movie on HBO
BEVERLEY and JENNA from 13 GOING ON 30
I remember last time I rewatched this one how sweet the scene between Jenna and her mother is when, having destroyed her life as a 13-year-old living in a 30-year-old woman’s life, Jenna returns home where her mom waits with just the right and calming things to say. Stream the movie on Hulu
CATH and ZOE from WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT?
Underrated as a film, the scene between Zoe and her mother after she’s basically self destructs her entire life is very touching, and features some compassionate advice from her mom. Stream the movie on Hulu
DONNA and SOPHIE from MAMMA MIA!
The wedding sequence as Sophie gets ready for her big day is so charming and sweet.
LADY DEDLOCK and ESTER from BLEAK HOUSE
The one is so bittersweet, and the actors play the roles so very well, too. The scene may bring tears to your eyes because it’s so emotional and yes, very heartbreaking. It’s a scene that is full of more emotion than any child or parent should have to be burdened with, and yet it is.
MARILLA and ANNE from ANNE OF GREEN GABLES
Anne never refers to her kind of adoptive, Marilla, as mom (at least not in the miniseries), but I think they do share that bond that a mother and daughter would have. Marilla is harsh, yes, but she’s wise and when need be, she’s sensitive and caring and the scene when she comforts Anne after she learns that the man she didn’t think she loved but actually does is dying is heartbreaking and beautiful. mother and daughter scenes
MRS. MARCH and JO from LITTLE WOMEN
I’m not the biggest fan of the 2019 adaptation of Little Women (I like it though) but do like the scene between Jo and her mother in the attic nearer the end of the film. It’s sad, yes, but also nice to see Jo admit fears. I think, like other adaptations from Greta Gerwig, many can also relate to Jo’s fears.
SOLÈNE and ISABELLE from THE IDEA OF YOU
This is one of those heartwarming mother and daughter scenes you may not expect. When Solene confesses the truth of her summer life to Isabelle, it’s heartbreaking and touching because it shows a mother and daughter having to be honest with each other. It’s also kind of uncomfortable because it’s about trust, and one of them feeling like they weren’t trustworthy.
TESS and ANNA from FREAKY FRIDAY
The scene where Anna finally comes to respect her mother, and Tess comes to realize Anna has to overcome some serious challenges is so sweet and well done. Stream the film on Disney+
BONUS scenes
ELLIE and ADAM from THE ADAM PROJECT
Not a scene between a mother and daughter, but rather a mother and son, which I think is, surprisingly heartwarming. The scene is one where Jennifer Garner doesn’t know she’s talking with her adult son, but also, she does come away with this kind of “knowing” that makes her present life seem a little less hard, and for a sci-fi flick, this scene is just charming. Stream the film on Netflix
LEIGH ANNE and MICHAEL from THE BLIND SIDE
The scene where Leigh Anne goes out and finds Michael feels both honest and important to their relationship, and I also respect that Bullock plays this role tough, but yet very loving. Purchase the film on places like Amazon or Apple
