‘Heartburn’
Heartburn tells the story of Nora Ephron’s split from Carl Bernstein, but instead of the beloved writer and dogged journalist onscreen, we witness the heartbreak through Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson. The actors respectively play Rachel and Mark, a couple who have a whirlwind romance after meeting at a wedding, and later marry and have a child together. Unfortunately for Rachel, soon after he daughter’s birth (and while pregnant with her second child) she discovers that Mark hasn’t been faithful to her. Featuring a killer Carly Simon soundtrack and appearances by Stockard Channing, Jeff Daniels and even Streep’s own daughter, Mamie Gummer, Heartburn tells the tale of a slowly disintegrating marriage and the anguish of Rachel as she tries her best to keep her relationship together.
