✦ Synopsis


La mayor tragedia de Mildred Pierce no es el haber nacido en el seno de una familia de clase media sin excesivos recursos. Ni siquiera el haberse casado con el hombre equivocado, de quien necesariamente debe separarse si no quiere hundirse en la miseria con él. Incluso el tener que salir adelante sola con un trabajo precario podría ser algo relativamente fácil de llevar. El mayor peso que Mildred Pierce debe cargar sobre sus es­paldas es su hija Veda, ambiciosa e ingrata, dispuesta a apro­vechar el esfuerzo ajeno en beneficio propio. La relación entre ambas se va volviendo cada vez más nociva y asfixiante, pero Mildred siente un amor enfermizo hacia su hija y es capaz de hacer absolutamente cualquier cosa por ella. Una historia de lucha y ambición que llega ahora a la pequeña pantalla. CANAL+ estrena esta producción de HBO, dirigida por Todd Haynes (Lejos del cielo) y protagonizada por la ga­nadora de un Oscar, Kate Winslet (El lector).
