Women like Beth should really avoid having children at all...selfishness and of any kind doesn't go well with motherhood...poor Conrad any true mother will never do that to her child ...
I can't believe that she still took a picture of the dad after Conrad finally exploded. After it was so clear that Conrad knew exactly what his mom was doing: avoiding any sort of physical closeness to him. You know, I was willing to give her a pretty long leash up until then, but I seriously wanted to punch her in the face after she snapped that photo all fakey-smiley.
Elizabeth McGovern and her character are just so DARLING in this film---what a catch her character would have been---sneaky cute, great personality, and funny...
Is it only me thinking that the therapist here is sympathetic? I mean, he's certainly one the most competent ones I've seen on film... one of those who actually achieve something. But I can't say for sure, since I've never been to one myself, so this is maybe just a cliché I'm falling for?
@Tothe2012 Why is there always a mother fucking asshole telling how the movie ends. What do think? Isn't that a good question too? Please, I'm dying to hear your expert opinion.
@mcmlxvi I think it's unreasonable that you expect people not to comment relative to the whole film. Don't read the comments before you've watched all of the movie. What do you think people are commenting for at this point? They are analyzing the film in it's entirety, and rightly so.
wow - momma is just NOT comfortable around the son who lived.... I could tell she preferred the eldest son, but sheesh. she's just downright cold is a dead cod to poor Conrad. I feel so bad for him.
I want to see Catherine Tramell go up against Berger, my money is on Berger.
Tramell would give him the "b-shot" and say, "You know what I think you want."
And he'll say, "No, but I'll TELL you what I want. I want you to leave your vagina and all your bullshit sexual inuendo out there on the table with the magazines, OK!"

When Beth talks to her mother you can really appreciate why she is so cold and distant from her own child.

I'm not even sure he's singing the tenor part in that piece... sounds like there's a higher male part in there going down from D to C.
