I really enjoyed this bio documentary about the successes and pains of Nora Ephron, brought to us by his son and those who loved her, with extensive clips from her many movies. The title derives from Ephron's mother, who impressed on her that everything, not just life's triumphs and comedies but also it's agony and day-to-day tragedies, can be fodder for her writing. The movie explains what she took from and how far she took that mantra, including where it and she fell short. Many famous people are interviewed, and there are clips from many of the movies she wrote and directed. Overall, it's funny and touching and highly enjoyable.
