After a few years of marriage, and three kids, Emma find that she has cancer. Everyone's life gets put on hold as they prepare for the worst that is to come.
Winning five out of the eleven Oscar nominations Terms of Endearment is a film that has become a classic over the years. The heartfelt story stars Shirley MacClaine, Debra Winger, and Jack Nicholson in a tale about life and loss. Paramount took home Best Picture over: Columbia's The Big Chill; Goldcrest's The Dresser; Warner Brothers The Right Stuff; and Universal's The Tender Mercies.
I was really nervous about this movie. I have had to watch a lot of the Best Pictures in a row because I was so far behind. So, throwing in a movie that is going make me cry my eyes out worried me. Honestly, I was disappointed when I didn't cry my eyes out. The story is interesting enough for me to get by I was not that impressed. I mean it was a good film but this legendary film that I have heard about for year did not seem like the movie that I watched. I get the impact and I love the story of a mother and daughter's love and I loved Jack Nicholson's part in the film. However, it was not one of the greatest films I have ever seen.
