Review of Ordinary People (1980) by Natalie M — 20 Aug 2008
Donald Sutherland is fantastic in this film. I can see many connections between Beth and the mother in American Beauty, who seems to be a modernized version of Beth, but the character of Beth is unique in her ability to completely remove herself from all emotion.
I enjoyed the film.
