Silver Linings Playbook

Rating: 10/10 (24 February 2014)

Whether or not you know it, this is REAL life for families of adult children with emotional issues. I thought it was spot on at the same time entertaining. DeNiro's portrayal of Pat's father gave you introspect of why he turned out (genetics) the way he did....A beautiful production that gives hope to all who deal with this on a daily basis. Hopefully all our troubled family members will have a silver lining.... I LOVED this movie...You can see the mother at all times not wanting to say too much out of fear of the reaction both by her husband and her son. I found this to be so honest and revealing. It was heartwarming to see Pat find someone who understood his emotions and was willing to incorporate them into her already chaotic existence. I found this movie to be explosive with real life situations and emotions and I could watch it again and again....
