Here is the plot description for “Beautiful Boy”:

“Beautiful Boy” is an unconventional love story that explores the journey of a married couple on the verge of separation. They must turn to each other to overcome unimaginable heartbreak as well as brave the intense media scrutiny following their son’s shocking act of violence. Bill (Michael Sheen) and Kate’s (Maria Bello) already strained marriage is tested as they realize all they have left with each other is their shared grief and confusion along with the unfortunate legacy of their son.

While they struggle numbly through the media onslaught and the awkward pity from relatives and friends, the life-altering event forces Bill and Kate to face their feelings of guilt, rage, blame, self-discovery and ultimately hope so they can finally see each other and their chance for happiness again with clear eyes.

The movie trailer for “Beautiful Boy” can be watched now below.

Buy a new one or lots of drugs. Kidnapping may also be an alternative, but risky.

Keeping it together

Submitted by MableGrl3 on June 4, 2011 - 7:56am.

I’d say by continuing to communicating with each other and realizing where their feelings are coming from. Therapy should be explored, if possible.

death of a child

Submitted by kam on June 4, 2011 - 9:33am.

my younger brother died when I was less than 3—-he lived 14 months. My mother never “got over it.” She had to live with his death—-and I can’t begin to know how she did.
