This is the story of the Jarrett family trying to come to grips with the accidental death of one of their sons. The younger son, Conrad (Timothy Hutton), makes an unsuccessful suicide attempt, the father, Calvin (Donald Sutherland), offers little emotional support, and the mother, Beth (Mary Tyler Moore), seems stuck in the moment and cannot rise beyond the crisis. The film won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor (Hutton), and Screenplay. Mary Tyler Moore was nominated for Best Actress and Judd Hirsch as Dr. Berger was nominated for Best Supporting Actor.
