What was the big secret???

Was the mother ill? Was the father ill? What did she mean about not wanting to be alone? Surely there was something bigger than telling the GROWN kids that they were selling the place. It was definitely a shift when Celia asked the straight son's girlfriend to help with breakfast; that's a big deal with Southern women.
I liked the movie, and I don't mind open endings, but this one was TOO open. I would have liked to know what was actually going on.
TIA for any insight.

LOL NOPE. The big secret is the mom wants to sell her vacation home. Not kidding, that is really it.

Wow! I'll have to make my husband watch it so he's not surpised when I put this biga$$ house up for sale, and one day just tell him, "Hey...I sold the house. We hae 30 days to get our $hi! out!!" LOL

If I had a dollar for every time I got distracted...Oh, look!! A puppy!!

Well it's not even their only house because they are loaded. They are selling their vacation home in Lake Tahoe. This movie is on Netflix now if you want to see it.

Ruben,
I agree; those people should've used some of that money to buy themselves some bright, shining personalities! Or at least a little scandal or two. The guy probably electrocuted himself just to get away from them. Lol

I read one of the reviews that said she was at the beginning stages of dementia. So I went through the whole movie with that in mind. then it ended. I was like...wait...WAS that actually what was happening or not? It almost seemed like she'd packed up her bags the next day and was going to leave maybe to assisted living. So I was waiting for that "reveal"...an assisted living brochure, something. that would have been a sad moment.

But there wasn't. If that is what was going on, they sure didn't make it clear. And if that's not what was going on then...big whoop, selling a house lol

Lol That is an EXCELLENT username ya got there!!! I never thought of something like that, so now I just keep a couple of sheets of all my userIDs and passwords around with me! And instead of forgetting which email addy goes with which site, and what the password is, now I just forget where I put the list. Lol
I used "whippetchick" here for about 5 years, but after explaining for the zillionth time that I meant the breed of dog we have, not my love of RediWhip (sp?) air, I just changed it. *G*
I think I'll borrow your idea (not your ID) and start making my online info a lot easier to remember. Thank you...
