The title of Miles Joris-Peyrafitte’s “The Good Mother” is initially a bit ironic. Marissa (Hilary Swank) is a hard-boozing mom who has hardened herself against the reality of her grown sons’ lives. Michael is an opioid addict and a criminal, dabbling in drug trafficking, while her other son, Toby (Jack Reynor) exists on the other side of the law and order line — he’s a cop. It’s Toby who shows up at work, interrupting an editorial meeting at the Times Union newspaper, where Marissa is an editor, to inform her that Michael has been murdered, shot in what may have been a drug deal gone wrong. Their acceptance of his death indicates that they have long grieved for their son and brother.
