On a hot summer afternoon in New York, Emma Jones gossips with other neighbors in her residential building about the affair that Mrs. Anna Maurrant and the milkman Steve Sankey are having. When the rude and unfriendly Mr. Frank Maurrant arrives, they change the subject. Meanwhile, their teenage daughter Rose Maurrant is being sexually pressured by her married boss Mr. Bert Easter. She does however very much like her kind young Jewish neighbor Sam, who has a serious crush on her.
The next morning, Frank Maurrant tells his wife that he is traveling to Stamford on business. Mrs. Maurrant meets the gentle Sankey in her apartment, but out of the blue Frank comes back home. He realizes his wife is upstairs with Sankey, and runs upstairs. We hear shots and see the two men struggling as Sankey tries to escape through the window. Maurrant runs out with a gun. He has killed Sankey and fatally wounded his wife.
Maurrant is apprehended and is led away by police. He apologizes to his daughter Rose, who will now have to take care of herself and her young brother without either parent. Rose's boss offers once again to set her up in her own apartment, but she refuses. Then she sees Sam, and tells him she wants to leave the city. Sam pleads with her to let him go with her, but she tells him it will be better for the two of them to have a couple of years apart before they consider becoming a couple. Rose walks off down the street by herself.

“妈妈的害怕让我害怕 软弱使我软弱”｜很细腻真实的一部｜人在面对重大变故的时候都是慌乱和手足无措的 不论年龄 经历了太多癌症病人的死亡 家属情绪波动最大的往往是刚确诊和即将死亡的时刻 因为当中的消耗、折磨、绝望、顾虑满满的都是无声煎熬 病患是痛苦 家人也同样｜但我真的不喜欢不懂事的小孩 换句话说遇到这种情况我希望别人比我坚强
7.9，抑郁心情不好可能是因为家里光线不好。这个屋子里幽暗潮湿，重新装修一下房子换个心情会好些的
三星半。其他都无感，唯爱那股子精准的少年叛逆感
无论是故事的时间、谈论的议题亦或是传递的价值观都过时得像10年前的电影，都什么年代了还在做美国梦🙄女儿摊上个这么作精作怪的妈真可怜，还不分青红皂白被当爹的扇了一巴掌😤最后一场戏也像经费不足一样草草收尾。
故事：7 情感：7 结构：8 节奏：7
75/100 在陷入以家庭为主域的内外冲突的莫比乌斯循环中留存了一丝和解，不仅是与他的，也有自我的
可以说十分的细腻了，不煽情的情况下把家庭成员之间的情感关系描绘的这么有看头，有矛盾有对立，也是彼此相爱的
单调却真诚，倾注了沉甸甸的生命体验，刻骨铭心。每一次争吵后混杂着温情和痛苦的余震，对身边人乃至对自己的恨意的反复回荡，当这些真实可感甚至能唤醒记忆的情感的时候，再多技巧都显得多余。
给五分主要是个人经历类似。成绩差，在学校被体罚，到陌生的国度无法融入，如定时炸弹般的家人，难以面对的现实。
无数的场景和对话的确真实，就是中国家庭普遍环境下的那种相爱相杀的对抗性关系，但是结尾有些漠然吧，电影打开了这扇门，但是核心内容却没有沉下去，有些浅尝则止的感觉。
看到非典，仿佛就是如今眼前的一幕。她渐渐接受了现实和生活，我想最后大女儿不会再想回到美国了吧。
若不是略显仓促的结尾，值得四星。小演员仿佛是牯岭街里的小明，浑然天成。
Too cruel for this little girl and me.
如果不是SARS 我可能还看不出来这是什么年代的戏 不论台湾还是美国 二十年来都挺遥远的 也就周杰伦的那首《安静》 二十年来一直不变地流行着
那如果這已經是她的最好了呢？
在新冠大流行的当下看当年SARS背景下的电影感觉很奇妙，这个台湾小家庭成为了中美文化对立冲突的最前线，孩子VS父母，个人VS家庭，随着SARS爆发母女的矛盾达到顶点，最大问题在于影片处心积虑营建的这个困境最后被轻描淡写地抹除了。
我太喜欢这个电影了 第一次“如果这是你妈妈最好的状态了呢”我们会不会对大人要求也太多
可以说十分的细腻了，不煽情的情况下把家庭成员之间的情感关系描绘的这么有看头，有矛盾有对立，也是彼此相爱的
4.5吧。我还是想看演讲报告如果有的话。这么处理也不错。 眼浅。
