Marvin's RoomThe painful story of two sisters. Bessie (Keaton) has stayed at the family home in Florida to care for her bedridden father. Lee (Streep) has forged an independent but thankless life as a single mother in Ohio. They are brought back together when Bessie is diagnosed with leukaemia, and the bone marrow of a relative could be her only chance of survival. Revolving more around conversation than action, this is a sharp and sometimes surprisingly funny (though more often mercilessly grim) snapshot of a dysfunctional family coming together, with DiCaprio as a rebellious teen adding more problems to the mix.
