Yes I know it’s a movie, and work of fantasy, but re Will Farrell’s mother in the movie, is there a subtext I’m missing that she’s supposed to be slightly insane? At least the dad says “enough” at some point, but she seems to have a near infinite capacity to overlook her son’s nigh insane destructive behavior. I’m thinking of the scene where they
destroy the sailboat and she compliments them for taking initiative in their music video presentation.
…after that I’m thinking she’s actually the craziest one in the whole movie.
