Families are all a little different. In Charlotte's family, they never stay in one place too long, her mother never stays with one man for too long, and dinner consists of finger sandwiches with marshmallow kabobs. Catholicism-obsessed teenager Charlotte tries to navigate a new home and new school with the added bonus of being more mature than her own mother... who just so happens to be attracted to anything male that moves. That may also include the local boy that's got Charlotte ready to lose her religion. 

Cher, Winona Ryder, Christina Ricci, and Bob Hoskins star in Mermaids.

This concludes our "Love is in the Air" month, which included: Pretty Woman, Ghost, Wild at Heart, and Mermaids.
