Charlize Theron delivers a raw and transformative performance as Marlo, a mother of three struggling under the exhausting demands of a newborn and her special-needs son. Feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from her well-meaning but distracted husband, played by Ron Livingston, Marlo reluctantly accepts her brother's gift of a night nanny. Enter Tully, a remarkably insightful and free-spirited young woman portrayed by Mackenzie Davis, whose arrival brings a wave of unexpected energy and support into the household. Directed by Jason Reitman and written by Diablo Cody, this poignant drama explores the complex realities of modern motherhood with both sharp humor and profound empathy. As Tully helps to shoulder the relentless burden, Marlo begins to rediscover a sense of herself beyond the daily chaos, leading to an unconventional and deeply affecting friendship that challenges her perceptions of family, sacrifice, and identity.
