There are lots of ways to treat your mom this weekend. If your mother-daughter style is pajamas and popcorn, then a quiet movie night in with mom might be just what the daughter ordered (see what I did there??).
My mom isn't much of a movie person, but there are a few standouts that she loves.
Since I live in a different city from my mom and can't hang out with her this Mother's Day, here are the weirdly my-mom-specific movies I would watch with her if we could have a low-key movie night together.
It’s Complicated (or anything with Meryl, really)

I picked this one mostly because it is a favourite of mine. Plus it is a great story about a great mom (with a G-R-E-A-T kitchen. Seriously, that kitchen deserves an Oscar). But really, everyone loves Meryl. You can never go wrong with Meryl. Praise Meryl.
I also still have my suspicions that my mom and Meryl are the same person. They are eerily similar and I have never seen the two of them in the same room together¦
Honourable mention to Mamma Mia, which might have been a more logical choice if I were one to play by the rules.
