故事如果依照原著來編寫，
以下通篇有大雷。
Spoiler Alert
Spoiler Alert
故事如果依照原著來編寫，
就是個破碎家庭的悲劇故事；每個人都有秘密藏著，最後結局是哀傷的。
然後看樣子BC戲分大概不會很多，到時候因為他想看的最好考慮一下。
英文WIKI頁面全劇透，想避雷者要小心繞過。

原著中翻劇透

Barbara發現父親的自殺其實是可以被阻止的，她最終也離開這個家，只剩下Violet孤單一人。
- Renée Zellweger and Andrea Riseborough were considered for a role. Riseborough was cast but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts. Juliette Lewis replaced her.
- Chloë Grace Moretz also auditioned for the role of Jean Fordham.
- Jim Carrey was considered for the role of Steve.
另外本片的製作人是Harvey Weinstein，另稱"The Punisher的奧斯卡常勝推手，
可以預期的是這部片只要不太差，大概就是明年的電影獎項常勝軍。
也可以推測Meryl Streep應該會入圍奧斯卡再創新記錄了。
結論:BC在電影裡能好好談個戀愛一次嗎？是沒有好劇本還是演員本身很排斥啊XD
(亂倫、被戴綠帽x N次、尬到大嫂、無法出櫃的Gay、老婆被迫給國王、有絕症、不孕、變態....)
