* The film’s conclusion ultimately leaves a lot of questions as to what will become of the family. Frank still doesn’t have a job and it will likely be difficult (if not impossible) for him to find another position in academia given how he lost his previous job. It’s also unclear what Richard will do with his life given that his 9 Steps motivation program was a failure; how will the man move on and provide for family?

** It may ultimately have been for the best that he found out sooner rather than later. Imagine if he kept on his path, never speaking and continuing to train for his dream, only to later learn that it wasn’t possible. It would have been even more crushing because he would have wasted more time and mental energy only to be let down in the end. He may have had a dream ruined, but he didn’t waste more time and effort than he otherwise would have if he hadn’t learned he was colorblind.

* Olive being reluctant to eat ice cream after her dad tells her that eating ice cream will make her fat and that women who win beauty pageants are all skinny. With some playful coaxing from the rest of the family, Olive decides to eat the ice cream anyway, but that moment of self-doubt was definitely tragic. A lot of people (especially women and girls) struggle with body image and Olive hearing that she can’t enjoy a food she loves because it will make her fatter had to have hurt.

* The movie's opening is pretty depressing. From Richard's awkward presentation of the Nine Steps Program (and the unenthusiastic reaction he gets from his tiny audience of college students) to Uncle Frank in the hospital after trying to kill himself. Even Olive's excitement after watching the Miss America pageant comes off as sad when you know what's going to happen in the movie.

* Olive trying to hold back tears and whispering to her grandfather that she doesn't want to be a loser "because Daddy hates losers." Try to get through that scene without at least a lump in your throat, I dare you.
