About this listen

Happy Mother's May everyone! In our first episode for our special "Mother's May" celebration, we discuss one of the seminal dramas of the 1980s- Robert Redford's Oscar-winning film, "Ordinary People" (1980).

Mary Tyler Moore delivers the performance of her career as Beth Jarrett, America's sweetheart transformed into the emotionally unavailable mother whose brittleness masks unprocessed grief. Timothy Hutton, winning the Oscar at just 20 years old (still the youngest Supporting Actor winner ever), demonstrates remarkable emotional depth as Conrad, the surviving son navigating his recovery after a suicide attempt.
