“We’re meant to say that being a parent is always a blessing ... and it is, but it’s also really tough,” said Reitman. But Reitman said the film isn’t really about motherhood. Rather, he said, it uses motherhood as a “location.” “I think real humour and real humanity comes from authenticity,” said Reitman. At the film’s emotional core, Reitman said, is the “magical relationship” between Marlo and Tully. And those periods of feeling alone are something that we don’t often talk about, which only makes them feel more lonely,” Reitman said.
