About The movie Broken Flowers
The story
The main character, Don Johnston (Bill Murray),
receives an anonymous letter, allegedly from an unnamed former girlfriend,
informing him that he has a 19-year-old son who may be looking for
him. At the same time, his current girlfriend Sherry (Julie Delpy)
moves out. Don has lived the life of an archetypal womanizer, a
"Don Juan", and any one of several former girlfriends
may have written the letter. He initially doesn't intend to do anything
with the information, but his friend and neighbor Winston
(Jeffrey Wright), a mystery and detective enthusiast, convinces
him to visit the four possible mothers:
- Laura (Sharon Stone) works as closet and drawer
organizer and is the widow of a race car driver. She has a "jailbait"
daughter, Lolita (Alexis Dziena), who flirts with Don and walks
around the house naked in front of him.
- Dora (Frances Conroy) is a realtor who hasn't
yet let go of her past; once a flower child of the 60s, she appears
very brittle and on the verge of exploding out of her confining
life. Her controlling husband, Ron (Christopher McDonald), invites
Don to an awkward dinner of fish, rice and chopped carrots.
- Carmen (Jessica Lange) works as an "animal
communicator." Don recalls how she was formerly so passionate
about becoming a lawyer, among other things. But "passion is
a funny thing," she says. There are also hints that she may
be involved in a lesbian relationship with her receptionist (Chloë
Sevigny).
- Penny (Tilda Swinton) lives in the country amongst
blue-collar motorcycle enthusiasts. Having left Don years ago, she
has no desire to reconcile with him now. When Don asks her whether
she has a son, she gets upset; Don is beaten up by her friends as
a result. He awakens the next morning in his rental car in the middle
of a field. He has a nasty cut around his left eye as a result of
the confrontation.
