“Maybe you were stronger. Have you ever considered that? That maybe you were the stronger one?” While main character may have been stronger, this movie is just Ordinary. Ordinary People that is. This 1980 film tells the tell of a family coping with the loss of a child, as the parents and brother react in vastly different ways.
