I said the exact reason is that I have been in a low mood recently, and I happened to see such a movie.
Right now, I am at the juncture of transformation. Some things will always come to me and overwhelm me, so I am extremely tired both mentally and physically. After a month of internship, I went back to school and looked for a movie to watch as usual. I saw this movie, and only watched it once.
Judging from the fact that I have watched so many movies, there are quite a few...

Introduction to the story of ordinary people in English
On the surface this film tells the disintegration of an upper-middle class family in Lake Forest, Illinois, following the death of the son older in a boating accident. In fact, in depth, it tells of the profound perverse narcissism of the mother, Beth, who seeks success only in the social norm of appearances and their approval by hiding behind her mother status, and who, by being blind to the psychology and feelings of her family, has installed coldness of heart, superficiality of feelings...

How to use emotion to drive plot changes?
The parents came home after watching the comedy, the mother walked straight back to the room, and the father cared about his son.
At breakfast, the son's wobbles made the mother dump her son's breakfast and leave. The father wants his son to invite his friends over to the house to play.
On the way to school, the choir girl won the attention of her son and classmates.
At school, my son is reluctant to participate in multiplayer sports and eats lunch alone.
The son...

A strong feeling of Oscar films in the 1980s. I don’t know if the Oscars in the 1980s tended to this style, or because of cultural differences, or because the translation team did a poor job. I always feel that many plots and lines are a bit nonsensical, and some plots are still very difficult to figure out. Thoroughly, it may be that great works need to be watched many times... There is no doubt that "Ordinary People" is a complete art film, with impressive unique editing methods and...

Like most families, the Jarrett family lives a stable and peaceful life, and Calvin (Donald Sutherland) is not only a lawyer of integrity at work, but also a father and husband. The role plays very well, and his wife Beth (Mary Tyler Moore) has been married for more than 20 years, and the relationship between the two is extremely stable.
As the eldest son of the Jarrett family, Burke (Scott Doebler) enjoys more care and love, but Conrad (Timothy Hutton), the youngest son, does not. care....

Not sure what else to say. This movie has given me so much and said so much that I want to say, and I am reluctant to share those feelings with others. Many times we just can't let ourselves...

Dr. Berger: Now you can live with that, can't you?
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: I'm so scared! I'm scared.
Dr. Berger: Feelings are scary. And sometimes they're painful. And if you can't feel pain, then you're not going to feel anything else, either. You know what I'm saying?
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: I think so.
Dr. Berger: You're here, and you're alive. And don't tell me you don't feel that.
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: It doesn't feel good.
Dr. Berger: It is good, believe me.
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: How do you know?
Dr. Berger: Because I'm your friend.
Dr. Berger: So you felt great. You brought home a Christmas tree and everything was hunky dory. Okay?
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: You're the doctor.
Dr. Berger: Listen, don't take refuge in one-liners like "you're the doctor". Okay? Because that pisses me off.
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: Okay.
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: [Berger is pretending to be Buck, Con's older brother] Bucky, I didn't mean it! Bucky, I didn't mean it!
Dr. Berger: What?
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: I said put the sail down, but you said keep it starboard, and then we go over! And you say "Hang on, Hang on!", but then you let go! Why'd you let go?
Dr. Berger: Because I was tired!
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: Oh yeah? Well, screw you, you jerk!
Dr. Berger: [Back in reality] It hurts to be mad at him, doesn't it?
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: God, I loved him. It's not fair. You just do one wrong thing, and...
Dr. Berger: And what was the one wrong thing you did? You know. You know.
Conrad "Con" Jarrett: I hung on. I stayed with the boat.
Dr. Berger: Exactly.
