    • Quotes

      Alison Kantrowitz: I never have to listen to you ever again. I saw you. I was there. You should have seen yourself. You looked disgusting! I'm the teenager! Not you! You had your chance.

      Pearl Kantrowitz: No. I didn't.

      Alison Kantrowitz: Well then why do the rest of us have to suffer just because you fucked up your life!

    Ending doesn't make sense

    What one would do if their wife screws up with a salesman? I couldn't get the intention of director to portray walker as gentleman. I mean, Cmon... He made out with a married woman and didn't say a word to her that it's wrong. Poor Marty and kids have to suffer the fantasies of disgusting young lady. She should NEVER NEVER be forgiven. How can one commit such heinous act and get away with it? Divorce must have been the perfect ending.
