Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Diane Keaton

Diane Keaton, who has appeared in everything from 'The Godfather' to 'Father of the Bride', is her usual, excellent self in the role as the dying Sybil. Keaton was nominated for four Oscars prior to this film, and won a Best Actress award for her role in 1978's 'Annie Hall'.

Answer: Morton

Sarah Jessica Parker is best-known for playing the stylish and savvy Carrie Bradshaw from the TV show 'Sex and the City', but she also has quite a movie career, having appeared in such films as 'Footloose' and 'Honeymoon in Vegas'. In this film, her character Meredith is wound up like a ball of string, only to learn to unwind via the help of Everett's brother Ben.

3. Everett has four siblings, two brothers and two sisters. Which of his siblings is by far the most aggressively antagonistic to poor Meredith?

Answer: Amy

Amy Stone, played by the lovely and talented Rachel McAdams, is clearly from a different planet than Meredith. While Meredith is prim and proper, Amy is adventurous and provocative. Rachel McAdams makes the most of her role as Amy, injecting it with her usual sassiness, but pulling back when circumstances require it. If you like her in this movie, check out 'Mean Girls' and 'The Notebook', she is a wonderful actress!

4. What physical impairment distinguishes Everett's brother Thad from the rest of his siblings?

Answer: Deafness

Thad is the youngest boy, and happens to be deaf. Each member of the family has learned how to sign adeptly, and they regularly use sign language in group discussions. Apparently, based on the commentary from the actors, the two worst actors at learning sign language were Craig T. Nelson and Luke Wilson.

5. Youngest brother Thad is unique in several ways. He also happens to be the only gay child of the Stone clan. What is the name of Thad's loving partner?

Answer: Patrick Thomas

Thad Stone is played by Hollywood newcomer Tyrone Giordano, a real-life deaf actor. His partner, Patrick, is played by actor Brian White, who you may have seen previously in movies such as 'Mr. 3000', 'Brick' and 'Dirty'.

Answer: Claire Danes

Claire Danes, who has appeared in films such as 'Romeo + Juliet', 'The Hours' and 'Shopgirl', plays Meredith's much more socially adept younger sister Julie, in 'The Family Stone'. She immediately relates to Meredith's beau Everett, spelling future trouble for everyone!

Answer: Everett's brother Ben

Ben, played by Luke Wilson of 'Rushmore' and 'Old School' fame, is a very laid back individual, perfectly suited to deal with uptight Meredith. Ben helps Meredith to relax, even taking her to a local bar to calm her down!

8. In a local bar, Meredith meets a man named Brad who was once dating Everett's younger sister Amy. What does Brad do for a living?

Answer: Paramedic

Meredith and Ben settle in at the local bar, where Brad appears. Immediately, Meredith begins insisting that Brad sit with them, as she has plans to embarrass Amy by inviting him over to the Stone house.

Answer: Judy Garland

Susannah, whose husband is away, enjoys a very sentimental moment on the television while other members of the family are either sleeping or out on the town. Like 'Meet Me in St. Louis', 'The Family Stone' could be remembered by fans as a Christmas movie.

10. What family member has passed away by the end of the film?

Answer: The mother, Sybil

Sadly, Sybil reveals to her husband and a few other family members that she is sick. It is never specifically mentioned, but she is clearly suffering from breast cancer and has had a breast removed. She passes away by the end of the film, but not before Everett finds love with Meredith's sister Julie, and Ben falls for Meredith.
