Synopsis – What to Expect from “Marvin’s Room”
Marvin’s Room is a 1996 drama film directed by Jerry Zaks, and starring Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton, Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Hume Cronyn.
The movie follows the story of Bessie, a woman who is living in Florida with her nephews and niece. She is suffering from a terminal illness and is in need of a bone marrow transplant. Her estranged sister, Lee, is living in Ohio and is the only one who can provide the necessary bone marrow.
Lee is a single mother, struggling to make ends meet and take care of her two sons, Hank and Charlie. She is also dealing with her own emotional issues, including her father’s death and the estrangement from her sister.
When Bessie contacts Lee, she is hesitant to accept the offer of a bone marrow transplant. However, after meeting her nephews and niece, she is moved to accept and the two sisters reunite.
The story follows the reunion of the two sisters, and the emotional journey they embark on together. As they come to terms with the past, they also learn to accept and love each other.
The movie culminates with a successful bone marrow transplant and Bessie’s recovery. The movie ends with the two sisters reconciling and embracing each other, and the family reuniting in Marvin’s room.
