The daughter (and it's usually a daughter) is always the same too, a parentified lonely stick in the mud who is her mother's living emotional crutch but also the physical manifestation of her mom's resentment. The girl, probably named something like Mia, will have to be shown how to loosen up by a quirky manic-pixie dream friend or by falling in love with a boy; Mia will eventually have to choose between her mother and this boy.
Ah yes, allowing guys that are no good and potentially abusive close to her children too soon, a heavy layer of, "my life is trash because I have to raise you," and top it off with implying the burden is on the child to stop everything to make her feel worthy in her weak moments ... the generational trauma trifecta. She nailed it, just like her other characters. This woman deserves her own skit show.
I honestly think she’s going to get one. Quarter million+ views in a day, CR is on fire! If Netflix looks up from its Excel charts about how to come up with yet another justification to jack up fees and offer less service, they’ll see CR as the answer to, “How to more money?” and they’ll give her a show. She’s a one woman Key & Peele.
There's a dinner scene where her oldest child doesn't get along with the trashfire boyfriend, and after he leaves there's a huge argument where the mom screams "I DESERVE TO BE HAPPY" 💀
I had an ex whose mother was like this. She screamed at her pregnant daughter once because she dropped a slice of cheese on the floor, blaming her for her anger issues because she’s a mom now, then downed a glass of wine and started cooking as if nothing happened while Madonna’s Papa Don’t Preach played on her phone. Shit was wild.
This is an indie film. Jeb's going to be terrible and hit on the daughter the morning after the mom brings him home after their first date. Mom will be passed out in the hall and jeb will be wearing only the sheet he pulled off mom's bed. In the end the daughter will realize mom's not going to get better, and she'll drive off to go to college that mom had no idea she applied for.
nah, new films are gonna embrace the not so typical happy endings. they will give you a happy part and a sad part. like the mother od's but her child becomes a much more stable person because of what she went through.
I had a dream Caitlin was a coworker at a school and she chewed me out for being a fraud teacher and made me resign from my position. One of the scariest dreams I've ever had
And then at the very end of the movie, she makes up with her adult daughter who finally understands that her mother has always loved her and just has her own beautifully toxic way of showing it.
The dancing scene lol. The kid would be like "mum STOP ✋ your drunk again. I hate you why can't you just be normal?" And then they would leave and the mum would be alone just crying whilst slowly sliding down the wall, with a bottle of alcohol in her hand... or something like that lol 😂😂
LMAO at the slowly sliding down the wall I can just imagine it; when she finally reaches the bottom of the floor, her entire shoulders and chest heave up and down with her incredibly dramatic sobbing
Alternatively, the mom doubles down and screams something back at the daughter like “WELL SCREW YOU TOO!” before turning the music up louder, taking a very large swig of whatever she’s drinking, and going back to dancing but being visibly upset about it because she’s in denial about how much of a mess she is
@@heidi_1love and despite all that, the crying is gonna be pretty silent too (briefly interjected by her taking a swig from the bottle every now and then lamo)
Gotta make it clear to the audience that she's not really listening to her kid, as she rummages through her wardrobe of outfits to selfishly pursue a dating life.
the "i am your mother" gave me such a visceral flashback to that one snl skit where fred armisen keeps screaming in zac efron's face while filming a gino's pizza rolls commercial. so real, so true
The kid is a gentle effeminate boy who knows he is different but doesn't yet quite understand why. He has a creative spirit which is nurtured by his mother but she can't quite seem to give him all he needs. The film is based on the writer/director's own life growing up which is why the chaotic mother is written in way that is loving but also has an undercurrent of anger and resentment that can only come from the mother wound of a neglected child. There are a number of comments from film bros on the films' reddit thread that call the chaotic mother a 'heinous bitch'. The actress who plays chaotic mother will go on to star in Guardians of the Galaxy VII playing a spunky space mechanic.
This is probably the millionth time ive come back on her channel to rewatch she’s hilarious and if she gets picked up by anyone i hope her humor doesnt changed or get tweeked bc thats what they like to do to the great ones!!
Okay so we have: -Constantly hooking up unsavoury men (and no doubt blaming men as a whole when the relationship goes to shit) -Emotionally abuses her daughter (it's ALWAYS a daughter) by constantly bringing up the fact she could've done so much better for herself if she'd just gotten an abortion -Listens to ABBA to show how cool and quirky she is -Tries to be cool and hip and spontaneous to try and connect with her daughter but it never works -Lowkey alcoholic I feel like the only thing that's missing is her getting extremely jel when the daughter inevitably gets a bf to cause conflict in the story 🤣
The full on gremlin voice comes just before the kid runs away and they're reunited, no problems fixed and mom's still single but they learn to be happy about it. Cuz mom has a good attitude now for no reason at all.
I’d love to see what she and Jay Nedaj would come up with together. They’re both wildly smart, creative, funny, and talented. They’ve both brought me joy for the past year and a half and I’m grateful for these content creators.
Yeah tjat s right. It takes pointed observation pf movies and characters in real life, it takes hood acting, it takes genius to fo so. I think she is phenomenal 😊❤
I know we have psychological horror. Do we have psychological comedy? Cause.. shit.. this is hilarious and yet half your videos bring something out that I hadn’t previously acknowledged and it’s kinda scary. Lol.
The scene where the mom cries and dances to Mamma Mia is beautiful, soul wrenching, and captivating. A scene that removes all sense of self and contrasts such an uplifting song with such a dark twisted moment. Haunting, poignant, and will live on in my mind forever. "Hit Indie Movie Vaguely Inspired by Lady Bird and Slated for Several Awards" is one for the history books.

"this one will be really good for us... Thats what we need right now baby" is SO true! Why do they always have lines like this??? And then the dancing 😂 Who does this? None of the chaotic divorced/single mums i know in real life ever behave like this and i've worked in social services 😂😂
These ones still have the delusions of grandeur about "keeping up appearances" so they slip under the radar a bit more. Most of the social service cases I witnessed as a kid were fellow working class families, i.e hardasses who were a bit more jaded.
@@faithbasedliving9391 no? stuff like sports clubs or drama clubs that the kid may not like, or being roped into church when they'd rather jot be. wait you're a church nut, that makes more sense.
I feel like this character would be somewhat opposite. Maybe not unsupportive, but overly supportive, to the point where she causes a major scene with a possibly strict instructor or coach, embarrassing the kid - all in the name of love. It's the lead-in to the argument in this video
Any mother that drinks and refers to herself in the third person as “mommy” to her teenage son or daughter and forces them to dance with her while she reeks of whiskey and snot are most definitely going to grow up with long term psychological issues😂😂😂I could not stop laughing through the whole skit😂❤

Jeb is salt-of-the-Earth, has one of those pre-fab tiny homes by a lake that always has a loon in it, no matter the region, strands of Christmas lights framing the carport to make a little magic out of nothing, plays a mandolin or a squeezebox because he’s quirky like that. He’s got a pickup truck he has genuine affection for and won’t drive anything else. But he’s just a regular guy. Oh, and he’s ripped. And white.
He also has severe anger issues, that'll become apparent a month into the relationship, when he stops charming the mom with "perfect boyfriend" facade and starts being increasingly abusive. Also, the daughter doesn't like him even during the "perfect boyfriend" phase and he's extremely upset about it.

I honestly think she’s going to get one. Quarter million+ views in a day, CR is on fire! If Netflix looks up from its Excel charts about how to come up with yet another justification to jack up fees and offer less service, they’ll see CR as the answer to, “How to more money?” and they’ll give her a show. She’s a one woman Key & Peele.
Her acting and scripting is really reaching Chappelle levels.
YES
This whole comment you just made. 100%
There's a dinner scene where her oldest child doesn't get along with the trashfire boyfriend, and after he leaves there's a huge argument where the mom screams "I DESERVE TO BE HAPPY" 💀
THE VOICE YOU MADE WHEN YOU SAID “I was pregnant with YEW👹🧌” I DIED🤣💀
You just embodied every character Toni Collette has ever played all at the same time.
Because I was *bRegNaNt* with yo *uuuu*
*and NOWW LOOK AT ME*
I had an ex whose mother was like this. She screamed at her pregnant daughter once because she dropped a slice of cheese on the floor, blaming her for her anger issues because she’s a mom now, then downed a glass of wine and started cooking as if nothing happened while Madonna’s Papa Don’t Preach played on her phone.
Shit was wild.

😂 This type of crying 00:54 is so cliche I love it!
It’s amazing how she’s able to isolate and capture that specific way of crying!
“I like this one for us”
Perfect 😂😂😂
Her and Jeb will be chaotic together at first, but somehow in the end everything will magically work out
yes, cause all she needs is a good man.
Until he does something Good Samaritan like that causes his parole to be yanked and off she goes again.
This is an indie film. Jeb's going to be terrible and hit on the daughter the morning after the mom brings him home after their first date. Mom will be passed out in the hall and jeb will be wearing only the sheet he pulled off mom's bed.
In the end the daughter will realize mom's not going to get better, and she'll drive off to go to college that mom had no idea she applied for.
It's an indie Thiago! Usually they never have a happy ending. Neutral at best or tragic at worst.
nah, new films are gonna embrace the not so typical happy endings. they will give you a happy part and a sad part. like the mother od's but her child becomes a much more stable person because of what she went through.
I had a dream Caitlin was a coworker at a school and she chewed me out for being a fraud teacher and made me resign from my position. One of the scariest dreams I've ever had
Why does Cher and Winona in Mermaids IMMEDIATELY come to mind-😂😂😂😂😭
And then at the very end of the movie, she makes up with her adult daughter who finally understands that her mother has always loved her and just has her own beautifully toxic way of showing it.
Yep. It always seems like these films are made by the mothers themselves.
oh god
@@einahsirro1488 Or by the kids trying to imagine a scenario where it gets better.
The „Ginny and Georgia“-vibes are strong with this one...
her own beautifully toxic way of showing it, lmfao im dead.
The dancing scene lol. The kid would be like "mum STOP ✋ your drunk again. I hate you why can't you just be normal?" And then they would leave and the mum would be alone just crying whilst slowly sliding down the wall, with a bottle of alcohol in her hand... or something like that lol 😂😂
Haha, you should write screenplays 👍🤣🤣
LMAO at the slowly sliding down the wall
I can just imagine it; when she finally reaches the bottom of the floor, her entire shoulders and chest heave up and down with her incredibly dramatic sobbing
Alternatively, the mom doubles down and screams something back at the daughter like “WELL SCREW YOU TOO!” before turning the music up louder, taking a very large swig of whatever she’s drinking, and going back to dancing but being visibly upset about it because she’s in denial about how much of a mess she is
@@doctorhunger921 yeses, this lol. Gotta have the shoulders moving so we know just how upset she really Is lol
@@heidi_1love and despite all that, the crying is gonna be pretty silent too (briefly interjected by her taking a swig from the bottle every now and then lamo)
Mommy's not sad, she's just dancing 🤣🤣
The “you don’t have to go to school tomorrow” cracked me up. They always throw that one in.
they ALWAYS walk so fast 😭😭
They gotta walk fast so you can tell they’re full of stress and regret
@@DeathnoteBB LMAO
Clock is ticking. Gotta find a man before their daughters do.
Walking really fast away from their problems 😢😅😢.
Gotta make it clear to the audience that she's not really listening to her kid, as she rummages through her wardrobe of outfits to selfishly pursue a dating life.
MOMMYS NOT SAD SHES JUST DANCING 🥹
The last scene lmao, this is exactly how they talk-whisper-shout when they get called out by their kids. It's so spot on.
the pregnancy thing is literally my mother irl
the "i am your mother" gave me such a visceral flashback to that one snl skit where fred armisen keeps screaming in zac efron's face while filming a gino's pizza rolls commercial. so real, so true
Lmao YES! I had to go and watch that immediately after reading this comment.
OMG YOU'RE SO RIGHT
Wait right after she said that I parroted “I am your MAOTHER” like that skit and then had no idea what came over me. It was that. Thank u
😂😂😂
“I GAVE BIRTH TO YOUUUUUUUU”
"come on, dance with me" - i swear i have seen the mother do this in EVERY indie film
The line that tells us absolutely everything has fallen apart 😂
@@JuniperLynn789 exactlyyy xD
Cloud in firefly lane 😂
😄does sound quite fitting
#SaveSoil
Can’t forget the “fresh start” she promises her after everything falls apart
"I am your mother, don't you ever speak to me like that." Dumbledore said calmly.
Haha gold
Voldemort?
The kid is a gentle effeminate boy who knows he is different but doesn't yet quite understand why. He has a creative spirit which is nurtured by his mother but she can't quite seem to give him all he needs. The film is based on the writer/director's own life growing up which is why the chaotic mother is written in way that is loving but also has an undercurrent of anger and resentment that can only come from the mother wound of a neglected child. There are a number of comments from film bros on the films' reddit thread that call the chaotic mother a 'heinous bitch'. The actress who plays chaotic mother will go on to star in Guardians of the Galaxy VII playing a spunky space mechanic.
Literally me
This gave me flashbacks. This is literally my mom. There's a reason I don't speak to her anymore.
“We don’t have to go to school tomorrow” got me a lil too close to home 😂😂😂
That barely audible yet deeply aggressive "DN'T YOU EVR SPK T'ME LIKE THAH" is brilliant
I literally screamed when she said that 😂😂😂😂😂
same ahahah she really channelled her inner Stitch with that one 😂
I don't know what trauma she's carrying but now I have it too.
😂
😂😂😂
Yes, we need a backstory! Caitlin is the best, I wish she would be on like a Netflix short series ❤
hahahahahahaha
That voice on “now look at me!”. You are phenomenal. The husband and I are constantly quoting the Euphoria one.
telling me you have no kids, but are prepping...without...?
*THE HUSBAND*
Oh Lord, is this what Euphoria is like?
@@melissasaint3283 I'm so glad I don't watch that show there are only so many teen shows I can watch without laughing
This is a masterclass in the art of nostril acting
Omg congrats on being in Dead Boy Detectives! Nailed that character so much! We need more!
the fact that she’s having a breakdown to an upbeat ABBA song is killing me
happens to the best of us
I have news for you about ABBA.
@@Dirkus17 😂👏👏👏
@@Dirkus17what's the news, I genuinely do not know
it's me at 2am
As someone who was raised by a depressed single mom, I don't know whether to cry or laugh
Dude same
Right I laughed and then became filled with instant dread and distress
I also did not realize my mother was an indie actress...
Saaaame
Single parent households can be some of the most traumatizing and abusive environments for kids growing up, so sorry to hear that
This is probably the millionth time ive come back on her channel to rewatch she’s hilarious and if she gets picked up by anyone i hope her humor doesnt changed or get tweeked bc thats what they like to do to the great ones!!
“Mom…..is that…you?”
- complex trauma survivors
Okay so we have:
-Constantly hooking up unsavoury men (and no doubt blaming men as a whole when the relationship goes to shit)
-Emotionally abuses her daughter (it's ALWAYS a daughter) by constantly bringing up the fact she could've done so much better for herself if she'd just gotten an abortion
-Listens to ABBA to show how cool and quirky she is
-Tries to be cool and hip and spontaneous to try and connect with her daughter but it never works
-Lowkey alcoholic
I feel like the only thing that's missing is her getting extremely jel when the daughter inevitably gets a bf to cause conflict in the story 🤣
She either blames men or her own children for not "connecting" with their weird aloof stepdad.
This was my bio mom with more CSA from the shit men lmao.
Not always the daughter, see: Moonlight, The Fabelmans, etc etc
@@ktaztrofk9923or Shameless.
I remember there was one crazy woman who made her son a trans.
Holy shit this is so accurate
The full on gremlin voice comes just before the kid runs away and they're reunited, no problems fixed and mom's still single but they learn to be happy about it. Cuz mom has a good attitude now for no reason at all.
The reason is she felt super guilty so now she’s repressing her problems even more! Yay!
@@DeathnoteBB Ahh, Hollywood really does have all the answers for life. 😁
Hey Bunny, you watched Thirteen too? 😂
@@Illustraful 13 was such a good movie. I think that was the first movie I ever saw Rachel McAdams in
@@amber619pop Do you mean Evan Rachel Wood? Rachel McAdams wasn't in Thirteen.
I’d love to see what she and Jay Nedaj would come up with together. They’re both wildly smart, creative, funny, and talented. They’ve both brought me joy for the past year and a half and I’m grateful for these content creators.
You're shockingly good at acting. Didn't expect how much this resonated.
It’s honestly strange how accurate she is with these
Yeah tjat s right. It takes pointed observation pf movies and characters in real life, it takes hood acting, it takes genius to fo so. I think she is phenomenal 😊❤
I wasn't prepared for her voice to spontaneously drop 10 octaves
Went full Snape in the end 😂
Her acting is toooo good! 🤣🤣🤣
I know we have psychological horror. Do we have psychological comedy? Cause.. shit.. this is hilarious and yet half your videos bring something out that I hadn’t previously acknowledged and it’s kinda scary. Lol.
Right?! Why am I so triggered when this scenario doesn't even apply to my life?
You've hit the nail right on the head "psychological comedy" is the perfect name for this style of humour
This genre sounds like it could be a goldmine ngl.
The scene where the mom cries and dances to Mamma Mia is beautiful, soul wrenching, and captivating. A scene that removes all sense of self and contrasts such an uplifting song with such a dark twisted moment. Haunting, poignant, and will live on in my mind forever. "Hit Indie Movie Vaguely Inspired by Lady Bird and Slated for Several Awards" is one for the history books.
EVERY SINGLE REVIEW 💀💀💀
Muriel's Wedding did it
As someone who has never seen a indie film, I can confirm this is 100% how mothers act in indie films.
“Pregnant with you” killed me
Indie Mother: We just really need a good guy. He's a real good guy.
Also Indie Mother: He's just got out of prison.
"I AM YUR MOTHR.
DNT U EVA SPK T MI LK THT👿!"
She's so good
The demonic “I was pregnant with YOUUUEWW” ☠️

I'm so happy Jeb! landed on his feet after losing 2016
I barfed lol
The exclamation point has me dead
By daring to exist, the daughter will probably ruin her mom’s relationship with Jeb too.
@@willtroy1986 Jeb! isn't any ordinary Jeb, the ! changes everything, the voters just weren't ready for such bold exclamations.
@@blahdelablah I guess they were telepathic because I didn’t notice any
Oh my God, the ending is just... *chef's kiss* nailed it to the dot.
The end was the best part, because I've seen that exact scene a million times in movies, exactly the way she did it!
The way she dry heaved that “pregnant with you”🤌mwah
Im convinced shes an actor, who plays every role possible 💀💀
Caitlin really captures the feeling of a 5-star 2 hour performance in less than two minutes regardless of role or genre, she HAS the range
She IS range
The Toni Collette really shimmered through at end there
“Mommy’s not sad, she’s just dancing” 💃🥹
Seriously, I'm impressed by the acting, real talk
"this one will be really good for us... Thats what we need right now baby" is SO true! Why do they always have lines like this??? And then the dancing 😂 Who does this? None of the chaotic divorced/single mums i know in real life ever behave like this and i've worked in social services 😂😂
These ones fly under the radar. They are shielded by their parentified children who have been cleaning up their messes since age 6 😂
These ones still have the delusions of grandeur about "keeping up appearances" so they slip under the radar a bit more. Most of the social service cases I witnessed as a kid were fellow working class families, i.e hardasses who were a bit more jaded.
we can't forget the part where the mother emotionally manipulates her daughter into stuff like clubs or churches or something like that
Clubs or churches? I’m confused by those two being compared. Are they one and the same to you?
@@faithbasedliving9391 no? stuff like sports clubs or drama clubs that the kid may not like, or being roped into church when they'd rather jot be. wait you're a church nut, that makes more sense.
@@faithbasedliving9391 I think maybe like clubs/extra-curriculars
@@faithbasedliving9391 yeah
I feel like this character would be somewhat opposite. Maybe not unsupportive, but overly supportive, to the point where she causes a major scene with a possibly strict instructor or coach, embarrassing the kid - all in the name of love. It's the lead-in to the argument in this video
The sad dancing is so spot on!
"CUZ I WAS BREGNAT WITH YOU" every melt down before the child moves out for college
Any mother that drinks and refers to herself in the third person as “mommy” to her teenage son or daughter and forces them to dance with her while she reeks of whiskey and snot are most definitely going to grow up with long term psychological issues😂😂😂I could not stop laughing through the whole skit😂❤
Truly an animated performance! And a heartbreaking story :(
Movies will portray an emotionally abusive parent and act like they made something deep
...Why did I relate to this on a personal level? Is my mom a chaotic (=dysfunctional) mom from an indie film?
the hereditary I AM YOUR MOTHER speech at the end 😭
Exactly what I went through growing up with an emotionally unstable mother who was an alcohol abuser extraordinaire!

Nah the “good one for us” is all I needed to see 🙅🏾♂️
Dance with mommy, we don't have to go to school tomorrow. 😅😅😅😅
Jeb is salt-of-the-Earth, has one of those pre-fab tiny homes by a lake that always has a loon in it, no matter the region, strands of Christmas lights framing the carport to make a little magic out of nothing, plays a mandolin or a squeezebox because he’s quirky like that. He’s got a pickup truck he has genuine affection for and won’t drive anything else. But he’s just a regular guy. Oh, and he’s ripped. And white.
He also has severe anger issues, that'll become apparent a month into the relationship, when he stops charming the mom with "perfect boyfriend" facade and starts being increasingly abusive.
Also, the daughter doesn't like him even during the "perfect boyfriend" phase and he's extremely upset about it.
I feel my PTSD surfacing from this. Damn you were spot on
You should do: Every teenage girl in a prestige drama (like Dana Brody in Homeland, Charlotte in Ozark, Jill in The Leftovers); and Every non-comedic actor doing an SNL monologue.
