奧麗芙·基特里奇

根據2009年普利策獎獲獎小説改編。

海岸，平靜的克勞斯比小鎮，脾氣暴躁的奧麗芙·基特里奇有一個“好好先生”式的丈夫和一個與她日漸疏遠的兒子，生活看上去水波不興，卻有股股暗流湧動。

在鎮上，奧麗芙也有意無意地充當了其他人生命中的過客：一個想自殺的憂鬱青年，一個患上厭食症的年輕女孩， 一個數年如一日在酒吧彈琴的未嫁女子……這些懷着飢餓、揣着夢想的人們，在慾望與寂寥之間掙扎徘徊。她冷眼看待這個世界，也分外清醒地咀嚼着人生的孤獨和難堪。

Math teacher Olive Kitteridge attempts to help Kevin, a smart but timid student whose mother is suffering from depression. Her son Christopher isn't happy though. Henry goes on a hunting trip that concludes with a tragedy.

Kevin returns to Maine and Olive is able to convince him to stay over and attend Christopher's wedding-rehearsal dinner. Olive clashes with the bride's mother and scares the flower girl at the ceremony.

Christopher comes up with the idea of counseling after Olive and Henry have a scary episode following dinner with friends.

Olive goes to see Christopher and his second wife in New York, but soon returns to Maine, where she receives some bad news about Henry. ^[1]
