Mighty Aphrodite

Mighty Aphrodite

Sportswriter Lenny (Allen) has grown obsessed with learning what his adopted son's genetic mother, Linda (Mira Sorvino) is like. He undertakes a lengthy quest to find her but is completely unprepared to discover that Linda is very different than he had imagined. Mighty Aphrodite is a sexy comedy of opposites as Lenny and Linda become entangled in each others' lives with hilarious consequences. As they grow closer to each other, both have untold secrets which, if revealed, could be scandalous. Also starring Olympia Dukakis, David Ogden Stiers, Jack Warden and Peter Weller.

Synopsis: Neurotic Manhattan sportswriter searches for the biological mother of his adopted son. This lighthearted romantic comedy will please fans of Woody Allen, and those who enjoy talky, offbeat, satirical fare.
