      Kramer vs. Kramer--Closeness and Distantness in Family

      When it comes to "Mrs. Kramer", one of the most classic family films in film history, the entanglement between family and women's liberation is often revisited again and again. However, even if the topic is temporarily out of the background of the hot and fresh era, it...

      The Kramers: The Ordinary is the Sophisticated

      What law says a woman is a better parent simply because of her sex? I've had time to think about what makes a good parent. It has to do with constancy. It has to do with patience listening to him or pretending to listen when you can't anymore. It has to do with love. I don't know where it says a woman has a corner on that market that a man has any less of those emotions than a woman. Billy has a home with me. I have made it the best I could. It's not perfect, I'm not a perfect parent....

      When we try to see the movie from another angle

      After watching this movie, I fell into another thought. This is undoubtedly a good movie that tells people to return to life and cherish the family around them. But I always think that the fault is not in one person, let alone portraying Joanna as a brave and blameless image, which is obviously unfair to Ted and extremely unfair to children.

      I often think of my mother who left in pursuit of a happy life. My father is also growing up with me, but my father is always taciturn, let alone...

      ***Couple, you and me in marriage

      Oscar winning film. The rise of feminism in the United States in 1979 has left many women and today’s professional women confused. Many women are used to choosing to compromise in their careers and families, so that they can basically live their embarrassing middle-aged life well, despite their unwillingness, reluctance to give up and peace. Not angry, that's all. This film needs to abandon the parents, the identity of husband and wife, do not sympathize with the male protagonist or scold...

      It reflects the problems of new things and single-parent families at that time. Boys become men's must-see movies. It seems to be the most common plot in daily life, but it is very real because of its commonness. I was in tears. I heard that the teacher asked to discuss who is right and who is wrong. In fact, there is no right or wrong. All relationships need to be run in, and this run-in may take a lifetime. Seeing the truth in the trivial and trivial is a good movie that I...

      The hardest thing is to understand, and the easiest is to understand. However, the whole film mainly describes the relationship between the father and the son, and I really want to know the mother's heart and struggles. I think, in the handling of the dilemma, if the mother's struggle is strengthened, then whether the final outcome will be more...

    Shooting process

    In the ice cream scene, in order to challenge his father, Billy skipped the dinner and went directly to the dessert. It was an impromptu performance of Dustin Hoffman and Justin Henry. Director Robert Benton liked this paragraph very much, so he kept it in the movie.
    Kate Jackson was originally scheduled to play Joanna Kramer. She admitted that her role in "Charlie's Angels" (Charlie's Angels, 1976) was the biggest hindrance to her...

    Evaluation action

    Robert Benton's "The Cramers" (1979) has been nominated for nine Oscars. Like its original name, "Kramer vs. Kramer" (kramer vs kramer), the seemingly narrative style is soft and rigid, and contains multiple confrontational relationships between characters, making it a family ethics movie. It can be ups and downs in the display of life, reflecting the barriers of communication between people in social reality and the deep desire, loss,...

    Movie quotes

    • Ted Kramer: My wife used to always say to me, "Why can't a woman have the same ambitions as a man." I think you're right. Maybe I've learned that much. But by the same token, I'd like to know, what law is it that says a woman is a better parent simply by virtue of her sex? I've had a lot of time to think about what it is that makes somebody a good parent, you know. It has to do with constancy. It has to do with patience. It has to do with listening to him. It has to do with pretending to listen to him when you can't even listen any more. It has to do with love - like, like, like she was saying. And I don't know where its written that says that a woman has a corner on that market. That a man has any less of those emotions than a woman does? Billy has a home with me. I've made it the best I could.

    • Gressen: Would you say you've achieved a certain status or position in your profession?

      Ted Kramer: Yes, I think I have a pretty good reputation.

      Gressen: Mr. Kramer, when you were working at Roth, Kane & Donavon what was your salary?

      Ted Kramer: I was making around $32,000 a year.

      Gressen: And now, I believe, you're working at Norman, Craig and Kummel?

      Ted Kramer: Yes.

      Gressen: And what is your salary there?

      Ted Kramer: Its almost 29,000.

      Gressen: Could you be more specific, Mr. Kramer?

      Ted Kramer: I make $28,200.

      Gressen: 28,200. Well, Mr. Kramer, you're the only person that I've heard that is working his way down the ladder of success.

    • Billy Kramer: You're not going to kiss me good night any more, are you Dad?

      Ted Kramer: No. I won't be able to do that. But, you know, I'll - I get to visit. It's gonna be okay. Really.
