New Movies May 2019: Diane Keaton & Amy Poehler Lead the Charge

Mark your calendars—there’s great viewing for our Tribe coming up

Sure, there are lots of action movies out there as the weather warms up (Avengers anyone?). Not that we don’t enjoy some on-screen thrills, but also popping up on screens are great films featuring stories that are especially resonant for women our age.

Two releases have us totally jazzed:

Watch what happens when half a dozen pals of 20-plus years spend a special weekend together.

Poms, opening in theaters on May 10th, stars Diane Keaton as Martha, a newbie at a retirement community, who answers the question, “What brings you here?” with a deadpan, “I’ve come here to die.” Looking for a new project, Martha decides to start cheerleading again (yup, those kinds of poms…pom-poms) because she had to drop off her high-school squad due to a family emergency. It’s her turn to rewrite her personal history and achieve a little “Give us a G!” glory.

Cassidy Hutchinson Has More to Say in Her New Book, Enough

Women like Cassidy Hutchinson are turning out to be the unrelentingly brave truth-tellers and heroes. Her new book reveals more of her gutsiness.

As she followed the Camino de Santiago, Stacey Tompkins shed sadness about kids who had moved on and found the answers in her journey of solace.

She wrote the book on how to live your life boldly, and in Santa Fe, 14 NextTribers had the chance to hear Jen Sincero’s blunt, sassy words of wisdom.

When your kid leaves for college, it’s not the end of anything. It’s the beginning of a long, tortured process that may or may not lead to an empty nest.
