Hollywood mom-daughter pairs create screen magic together

She plays the role of rockstar who leaves her husband and daughter only to come back after a long gap to set things right. The twist: Mammie Gummer who's Meryl's real daughter plays her screen daughter giving and makes this story about a strained motherdaughter relationship seem almost real on screen. What's interesting is that this mom-daughter pair shared screen space three decades earlier when Mammie made her debut at the age of three in the Heartburn where she played Meryl's onscreen daughter, Annie Forman.
