I trying to find a movie or TV show, when a girl is dating a guy. The girl has problems where she has to call her family every single night. Its like her mind is control to talk to her mom everyday, and the more she lives, her family controls her life, she has to grow up on her own now and the guy said you can't do this to yourself being lead by your family, you need to grow up and some point of the movie the take the phone and throw it off the edge of a cliff or off the boat. I can't remember but I scene this image of this movie and just need help to see if it is a movie or not? Thanks if you could help?

Go to the Internet Movie Database, The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) (http://www.imdb.com). It contains a large database covering movies and TV shows of all varieties, and its search engine facilitates any number of approaches to deciphering a movie's title.

2
Click on the "Characters" option in the search window, then write the name of the character. This will take you to the character's home page, which ideally will have the name of the film itself. If the character appeared in more than one film (Sherlock Holmes, for example), there may be more than one movie listed. In some cases, there won't be a listing for the character, in which case you should return to the IMDB home page and start again.

3
Click on the "Names" option in the search window, then type in the name of the actor or director. You'll be sent to a page containing a list of all his work. Scroll through it until you find the name of the film you're looking for. This may take a little more work, but if you pinpoint the film name, you can be more assured that it's the right one. If you can't find it, go back to the IMDB home page.

4
Click on the "Plots" option in the search window, then type in key phrases connected to the plot. Examples of key phrases include "spy movie," "romance" or "explosions." Try to be as detailed as you can and include as many key phrases as you can. The engine will then take you to a list of plot summaries that include those key phrases. Sift through them until you find the one that matches your movie.
