吃蛋糕的人

宁静的农家小镇里住着Kimbrough一家人。一家之主Easy是个普通肉商，他的小儿子Beagle（艾伦·斯坦佛 Aaron Stanford Bruce Dern饰）一直照顾着患病的母亲。大儿子Guy因追寻摇滚梦想远赴纽约，直到母亲去世也没能来得及参加葬礼。 　　Beagle内向敏感，非常喜欢一个患病失去自理能力的女孩Georgia Kaminski（克里斯汀·斯图尔特 Kristen Stewart饰）。Georgia虽然内心孤独但也希望体会爱情的甜蜜。就在他们要初试爱情滋味的同时，彼此长辈之间长久以来不为人知的地下恋情也露出水面……这两家人能否得到如蛋糕般的甜蜜结局呢？'The Cake Eaters' is a quirky, small town, ensemble drama that explores the lives of two interconnected families coming to terms with love in the face of loss. Living in rural America, The Kimbrough family is a normally odd bunch; Easy, the patriarch and local butcher, is grieving over the recent loss of his wife, Ceci, while hiding a secret ongoing affair for years; Beagle, his youngest son who was left to care for his ailing mother, works in the local high school cafeteria by day but has a burning passion inside that manifests itself through painting street signs; and the eldest son, Guy, has been away from the family for years while pursuing his rock star dream in the big city until the day he learns of his mother's passing and that he's missed the funeral. Upon Guy's return home, relationships between the characters begin to unravel; Beagle's pent up emotions connect with Georgia Kaminski, a terminally ill teenage girl wanting to experience love before it's too late; Easy's long time affair with Marg, Georgia's eccentric grandmother, is finally exposed to the Kimbrough children; and Guy discovers that, in his absence, his high school sweetheart, Stephanie, has moved on and started a family of her own. Through it all, The Kimbroughs and Kaminski's manage to establish a new beginning in the face of their greatest fears.
