About this product

Product Information

Devastated by the loss of their older son, well-to-do suburban couple Calvin (Donald Sutherland) and Beth (Mary Tyler Moore) are trying to rebuild their lives after their younger son, Conrad (Timothy Hutton), attempts suicide. While Beth, who always favored the elder son, retreats into an icy, emotionless shell, Calvin tries to draw Conrad back into the family and into life as a teenager. Conrad sings in the choir and returns to the swim team, but both his brother's death and his own experiences traumatize him. Conrad reluctantly begins therapy sessions with Berger (Judd Hirsch), which allow him some respite from the unbearable grief and guilt he carries with him. As Conrad makes strides, Calvin realizes that he no longer knows his wife and is both saddened and angered by how seemingly emotionless she has become. A classic portrait of family life in the face of tragedy, Robert Redford's award-winning directorial debut is moving and thought provoking. Based on the novel by Judith Guest, the film features the debuts of Timothy Hutton and Elizabeth McGovern as well as breakthrough performances from Mary Tyler Moore and Donald Sutherland.

  • Ordinary People: A Movie Full of Extraordinary Actors

    Saw this film has a young man and really enjoyed it.. Big fan of Timothy Hutton.. I saw it again for the 2nd time last week (2016) and I now have 3 children.. WOW.. What a heart wrenching movie to watch when you are a man with 2 boys of your own.. I also did not realize how incredible of an Actress Mary Tyler Moore was until I saw this film has an adult.. Just an awesome movie.. I now see where Robin Williams and Matt Damon got their base chemistry in Good Will Hunting from the interaction between Judd Hirsch and Timothy Hutton.. very similar human interactions... So glad... I saw this movie again as a mature adult!

  • Charecters are well developed and emotions are evoked from the actors

    I previous watched this movie long ago and wanted to see it again. My library did not keep a copy for lending so now this is a "keeper" for me.
