the kids are running the house with their newfangled technology. By playing by
his own rules, which include sugary snacks, old fashioned games and tough love,
Artie manages to outsmart the kids and achieve the impossible- bring the family
closer together!

Parental Guidance




When Diane Decker (Bette Midler) and her adult daughter Alice (Marisa Tomei)
head to a local department store to purchase a dress for Alice’s daughter
Harper ‘s (Balilee Madison) upcoming dance, the two share a tender moment
and Diane finds herself offering a little parental guidance in song and dance to
Alice.

The First Wives Club

Hocus Pocus

In this magical film, the Sanderson sisters kidnap a young girl named Emily and
soon her older brother, Thackery Binx (Sean Murray) is pursuing them. Not to be
outsmarted, however, Winnie Sanderson (Bette Midler) kills all of the adults with

caliber could have carried out.

The Rose

Based on the life of music powerhouse Janis Joplin, The Rose centers on the life
of troubled pop star, Mary Rose (Bette Midler), who is being confronted by more
than a few thorny situations and not coping well. Bette’s performance of the

boys in uniform.

Beaches

This sentimental tale follows the friendship between Cecilia Carol (Bette Midler)
and Hilary Whitney (Barbara Hershey) as they graduate from girlhood to
womanhood. The journey taken by the two lifelong friends culminates with one
friend caring for the other in her last days and Midler’s moving performance of
“You are the Wind Beneath my Wings.”
