Mafia Mamma coulda been a contender, a sharp idea to throw an unsuspecting wife, mother and frustrated businesswoman into a new life as the head of an Italian crime family. Instead, though blessed …
Collette plays Kristin Balbano Jordan, an American in the midst of a life crisis. Her only son Domenick is going off to college, she catches her deadbeat husband Paul having sex with another woman, and she is constantly shot down in her marketing job by her male boss and misogynist co-workers. It is time for a change, and she is about to get one she never could have predicted.
Upon learning that the grandfather she never knew, Don Giuseppe Balbano , has died, and left her as his only remaining heir to take care of his business, she finds encouragement from her bestie, Jenny to take the opportunity of attending his funeral in Rome as a way to change things up, find a little Eat, Pray, Love at this point in her life.
Of course she is appalled at the idea, and it is about as ludicrous as they come, but in the script by Michael J. Feldman and Debbie Jhoon from a screen story by Amanda Sthers it attempts to be plausible as Kristin is guided throughout by the Consigliere, Bianca who uses sly arguments and wise counsel to empower the new female Don.
