Allan King's film "A Married Couple" is similar - if not the film you are thinking of. It follows a married couple and their young child through a very average year and ultimately the film "witnesses" the breakdown of their marriage. Word on the cinema vérité street has it that the sound man on the film gave up his craft completely after witnessing Mr. King manipulating the situation to provide more drama out of it and essentially destroying the relationship for cinematic purposes. So...Moral and piece of poetry for the day -
We are so malleable,
it can be somewhat sad -
Nature is rarely as beautiful
as your uncle Joe claims.
