Winner of the Sundance Film Festival's prestigious Screenwriting Award, ANOTHER HAPPY DAY is the feature film debut of writer and director Sam Levinson. The film is a powerful, darkly comic story of a woman struggling to find her place in a volatile family dynamic and features an outstanding ensemble cast led by Ellen Barkin who also produced. A family weekend is fraught with emotional landmines for mercurial and sensitive Lynn (Barkin) as she arrives at her parents' Annapolis estate for the marriage of her estranged eldest son Dylan (Michael Nardelli), accompanied by her three younger children (Ezra Miller, Kate Bosworth, Daniel Yelsky). Lynn's hopes for a joyful reunion are crushed as her wry but troubled middle son Elliot (Ezra Miller) lobs verbal grenades at his mother and her relatives while daughter Alice (Kate Bosworth), a fights valiantly to keep her longtime demons under control. The weekend quickly unravels as Lynn demands to be heard by her aloof, disdainful mother (Ellen Burstyn), ailing, distant father (George Kennedy) and ever-judgmental sisters (Siobhan Fallon, Diana Scarwid), but most especially by her ex-husband Paul (Thomas Hayden Church) and his hot-tempered second wife Patty (Demi Moore). Confronted, oftentimes hilariously, with the deeply painful, half-buried truths that have given rise to the family's primal web ofresentments and recriminations, Lynn struggles to maintain her equilibrium as her best attempts at reconciliation veer quickly off-course.
真残忍 看多了这种总会觉得家人之间还是fake一点儿比较舒服 各自的problem不说出来 谁看谁都不是bitch 可惜现实就是我们偏偏爱向家人开炮 所以才更虐 另 Ezra同学是骨子里炫酷 戏路是宽不了了
真让人窒息，竟然可以难看成这样我是没想到的。这个妈极度让人受不了，倾诉欲极强但没有行动力，只会不停哭和翻旧账然后摆出一副为什么谁都不能理解的样子，拜托不懂做妈就别生了好吗，唯一正常的还不是你养的就没想检讨下自己吗？在儿子婚礼上质问自己母亲，真是只活在自己的世界中。
kate好美！给了一星。此外哭哭啼啼真是不是我的菜
Death is actually a more unifying force within family than love. Sounds so true! What a tragedy.
