Then, he starts cutting his arm with a knife his stepmom finds under his mattress. His parents ask him over and over again “Are you unhappy?” and he tells them over and over again giant red flags such as “I’m not meant for this life” or that he “can’t go on living.” He says he’s overcome by pain. I’m not interested in any of that,” goes one of his lines that could have been written by Siri (Christopher Hampton is the translator). “All they’re interested in is parties and having fun. Beth drinks wine in her airy open kitchen and wears baggy, neutral clothes that look like they came with a free oat milk latte.Īfter a few weeks, Nicholas appears to be improving, but he still has scary outbursts - and Beth is frightened by him being around her child. Nick packs up his suitcase and heads to one of those spacious, modern Manhattan movie apartments that infuriate New Yorkers who agonize over whether their 500-square-foot postage stamp can fit a small couch.
