The Cooperberg family meets at the local hospital to await news concerning their patriarch's surgery. As the wait stretches on, however, the three psychically damaged children of the family--successful but sleazy Edward (Marc Blum), overly sensitive Eli (Ted Levine), and wallflower Susan (Amanda Plummer)--consider the state of their lives. As they think back to their therapy sessions, all slowly come to the conclusion that their controlling mother (Ellen Burstyn) is to blame. With powerful writing and acting, YOU CAN THANK ME LATER was based on a stage play by Oren Safdie. [More]
