Unimaginable sisters

In fact, I went to Nicole at first, because the beautiful hat on the poster set off Nicole's delicate face and it really attracted my attention. After watching the whole film in one breath, there was an unspeakable feeling. Why is Margot like this? What happened to their family? Why do sisters distrust each other? Because there is only one child in the family, I am very incomprehensible, so I feel a little lost. Perhaps this is exactly the family conflict that director and screenwriter Noah Baumbach wants to reveal to us. The language between the sisters is so sharp and acrimonious, it makes people very sentimental after reading it. After all, in my opinion, family relationship is so important, and blood relationship is a fact that cannot be changed. Why do sisters who grew up together have so many gaps? So much so that the deliberate greetings between the two sisters Margot and Baolin have become so artificial, and at the same time they are insincere with each other. This is actually a sad thing. Jack Black's performance in the film is quite good, and his witty humor shows such a cowardly role to the fullest. Peter Travers made an insightful comment on the film "The laughs come fast and furious and they're sharp enough to draw blood." This film is not an entertainment film, so choose it only when you want to watch something and are not tired. More appropriate.

-
Malcolm: I wanna punch that guy in the nose.
Pauline: You've never hit anyone.
Malcolm: I have too!
Pauline: Who?
Malcolm: Lots of people. You don't know them. They're not around cause I punched them.
Pauline: [bursts out laughing]
-
Margot: You know, Pauline told me she's very disappointed in you.
Claude: Why?
Margot: She thinks you laze about the house. Ingrid is always offering to help clean or cook. She made bracelets for all the guests. Even Malcolm puts up the tent. You just wait until everyone else does it for you.
Claude: That's not true.
Margot: It is true. I wish I taught you better manners...
Claude: I can try to make pop-overs. If I remember how...
Margot: Don't bother.
[She looks at him with grave disappointment]
Claude: Why are you looking at me like that?
Margot: I just see how much you've changed. Your body language. You used to be rounder and more graceful. You're so stiff now, so blasé.
Claude: What do you mean?
Margot: I can't explain it.
[She sees the tears in his eyes]
Margot: It's okay, though.
Claude: Uh-huh.
[He stands up and starts walking away]
Margot: You're still handsome!
