Gosh, haven't seen this since I was eleven when it came out. Anyhow, I still remember this as a particularly poignant scene, with the "dad" trying to inject some normalcy into his young son's life, which is about to be changed forever.....
the recipe for the french toast is wrong where is the salt you need to add salt otherwise it will taste like shit yet another case of hollywood being sloppy with the facts
Also, I think people should be more open minded about what a man/woman is capable of. I mean, a man can cook and clean the house JUST AS WELL, if not better than a woman. A WOMAN can make money at work, or garden and fix mechanical things just as well, if not better than a man. A person's sex does NOT limit them to certain tasks just because many people think it does.
I could totally go for some properly made french toast with strawberries and kiwis on top and raw maple syrup. *drool* My dad always made the french toast at my house. Never my mom for some reason,and he always dressed it with berries and fruit. My best friend who lived a few blocks away, his mom would make us french toast with chocolate chips! Moms and Dads can and should cook. I agree that the best chefs are men. That has always been the case in my experience. I'm an excellent cook myself
@MetrazolElectricity awful word and you shouldn't use it....makes you trash..so your opinion means nothing....are you understanding where I'm going with this...don't use that word for your own self respect and sake.
@cymbeli I don't see how your having disagreement with the choice of my word invalidates my argument. If you see this movie you'll now that the ex-wife is a cunt like so many other ex-wives these days. How else can you describe someone so immoral and loose? Anyway , this movie's fiction but my point was about the broader social issue. You clearly missed it.
@MetrazolElectricity You just proved my point......which was that your point was overshadowed by your choice of words....the word is so awful it should not ever be used....and her character is no where near what we see in every day life..she was a selfish and self centered woman who lost her entire sense of accountability, realized she screwed up as a mother wanted to fix it but then realized again the best way to fix it would to let her son stay where she put him..with his dad.
@cymbeli are you living in a dream world, madam? This here is the archetype american female - of all ages. This movie's so popular because guys can instantly relate to this situation. It's so common. The lady is the supreme crowned head of cunthood. And, madam, don't try to tell me what to say or not say. I'm not your husband.
@MetrazolElectricity Even if you were my husband I would not play alpha femme and try to bully you so relax....geez...who the hell emasculated you? All I'm saying is the C word is trashy and the users get the title...I mean you chose this and her situation is mild in comparison not to mention that she does the right thing....only at first she doesn't realize it because she's has one sided views. The world now barbaric in comparison to Meryl streeps characher..people are sellin out their own kids
@cymbeli Don't preach to me , you old hag. We know very well you're a classified cunthole. If we only had the true womanhood of the 50s back, when women had the integrity to not walk out on their kids, when they put family values first. Not these permissive times.
@MetrazolElectricity lol...you are such a gross person...ok I'm starting to understand why you are so bitter...you've run off a few women in your time eh? If I'm an old hag then wouldn't that make closer to your ideal 50s woman? I'm sorry to say I wasn't alive in the 50s or the 60s for that matter but not once have I walked out on my daughter and she knows I'm her primary default in any given situation. I am about as dedicated as a mother can be. My entire life is centered around her.
@cymbeli I wasn't in the 50s, I wasn't during the french revolution but I know of it. Of course, the olden days had stronger family values. If a woman tried to pull something unethical, you could put her in her place...now you pay alimony for her transgressions. As for you and your daughter,madam, you may be an aberration. Motherly love is fabled and overrated. Dads are far more important to children. Like my college's philosophy prof once said "wives are like prostitutes"
@MetrazolElectricity Tell my daughter that and I can tell you I always needed my mother more than my dad, not to say I didn't need my dad but for nurturing and basic presence I needed my mom. If wives are like prostitutes it is only because hateful men have tampered with the sanctity of marriage and the essence of it is no more....which means you know nothing of marriage and its beauty. I'm sorry you are filled with such hate...the world is overwhelmed by it..btw Merry Christmas
@cymbeli Wives are like prostitutes because you work hard at work, give them a credit card , she buys stuff for herself , at the end of the day she sleeps with you. I hope you had a chaste christmas, unlike most wives.
@MetrazolElectricity I did actually have a very chaste Christmas. I'm not married and when I was made sure none of my cards ended up in my daughter's Father's hands as he would have maxed them out and now he has recently declared bankruptcy after my stern advise to hold off a bit. Not all wives take advantage of men. You are being silly which goes back to the reason why you use bad words often. I'm detecting a very one sided and unhappy soul. You can't hate women and have peace at the same time
@cymbeli I didn't say all. I said most wives. And god knows what your poor ex had to endure, I mean we're only hearing one side of the story. If I'm not very much mistaken, you drove the poor devil into dire straits
@MetrazolElectricity THe poor Devil is terribly self destructive perverted, immoral and down right self centered to the point where my daughter and niece both are trying to find the right way to confront him of all the abuse they had to endure their whole lives. Btw, he's cried to me before about not doing right by my daughter and yes you are only hearing one side of the story..but just because its my side doesn't make it a farse...I'm not being onde sided..you are...u don't even know most wives
@cymbeli I've quite a few wives and mothers. That's enough. Hey, not all physicists know all atoms but they know a few to make generalities about the rest. Same here. They've been wretched and any of the self-destruction the men endure is because they've been betrayed by those whom they loved. It happened to me with my ex, I drank whiskey every day for 10 days till I woke up and forgot her and was good as new.
@MetrazolElectricity Of course....I mean no one responds this way and speaks of women in such a manner without a personal experience inspiring it...that was a given but to allow yourself to be with so little objective is self destructive. My daughter's father has a hole in his pocket is self centered and often sadistic mainly with his own family but my brothers both are the icon of true manhood. I know women who are the spawn of Satan and have been blessed by walking along absolute angels.
I haven't read the book, apparently it's a very faithful adaptation. In that case I should definitely read it as this is one of the finest movies ever made.
Dustin Hoffman didn't shower in the morning, probably used his hand all night jerking off, and then dips his hand into eggs and use it to fold toast to make french toast for his son????
I know that cooking sort of kills germs, but come on!!!
I saw this film last night on Net-Flix..Dayum, I knew The Hoffman was a gr8t actor, but after seeing this film, I think Mr.Dustin is such a bad-Mamajamma!! no wonder he won an oscar..he did win an Oscar right? cuz if he didn't they robbed him like when spacey robbed Denzel!
This performance of Dustin's was much better than his in Rain Man. It's easy for a hard working actor to study and mimick the actions of that of a mentally handicapped person, but you can't study the actions and life of a single, working father going through a rough divorce while raising a son. That takes real acting
you hate this movie because your mother and Father threw you out on the street and you spent the next 2 years of your life making friends with sewer rats after you drank toliet water and the rats urin.
When I was 6 I told a friend of my mother's "I'm 6 and I can make my own breakfast" and she said "my husband's 44 and he can't even make his own toast and coffee."
This film is so truthful, I love the scene when Hoffman in the cafeteria breaks a glass against the wall after the news that his wife wants the custody of child. Simply great.
Gosh, haven't seen this since I was eleven when it came out. Anyhow, I still remember this as a particularly poignant scene, with the "dad" trying to inject some normalcy into his young son's life, which is about to be changed forever.....
