Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Josh Hutcherson

In addition to his role in "The Kids Are All Right", Hutcherson has appeared in the films "Bridge to Terabithia", "Journey to the Center of the Earth", and "The Hunger Games" series. Hutcherson won his first Leading Young Actor award for the film "Zathura: A Space Adventure".

In "The Kids Are All Right" Hutcherson's character Laser deals with the highs and lows of being a teenager, particularly one without a father figure. The cast of "The Kids Are All Right" also includes Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, and Mia Wasikowska.

2. In "The Kids Are All Right" the two parental units are a married lesbian couple. What occupations do Nic and Jules have?

Answer: Obstetrician and landscape designer

Whether intentional or unintentional, Nic as an OB/GYN, seems to belittle the jobs (such as landscape design) that Jules undertakes. In the beginning of the film Nic doesn't even remember what Jules does for work and asks her why there is a truck in the driveway.

3. Why does Laser ask his sister to make the phone call to find out who their biological father is rather than call himself?

Answer: He is under 18 years old which is the minimum age at which you can request to find out who your sperm donor biological father is.

Laser's sister Joni is 18 and thus she is old enough to make a phone call to get information about their biological father. At first Joni does not want to find out who their father is because she believes her parents will get upset.

Answer: Zoomer

Joni is in the process of challenging the word when she receives the call from Paul. Jules insists that the word is valid and that it means 'a person who zooms'.

5. What feature of Paul's organic foods business does Joni most admire in "The Kids Are All Right"?

Answer: His business plan has a local focus.

Joni mentions that she has been trying to get her parents to buy local for ages. This was the first connecting point between Paul and Joni or Laser.

Answer: Nic and Jules must meet Paul first.

Nic, Jules and Laser are all surprised that Joni wants to meet Paul again. The scene when Nic and Jules find out that Joni and Laser met Paul is comical because they were actually in the process of confronting Laser about something else when he drops the bombshell that he has met his biological father without their knowledge.

7. What adrenaline raising activity does Paul do with Joni that angers Nic?

Answer: Ride a motorcycle

Nic tells Joni that she's seen many people have injuries from motorcycle accidents and that's why she forbids having her ride on one. Paul tells Nic that she should allow Joni more freedom but that just angers her more.

Answer: Joni Mitchell

Joni thinks it is dorky that she is named after Joni Mitchell. Nic and Paul make a heartfelt connection at dinner discussing their love for Joni Mitchell's music.

9. How does Nic discover that Jules is having an affair with Paul?

Answer: Nic finds Jules's hair stuck in the drain of Paul's shower.

Earlier in the film Nic had commented to Jules that she needs to clean the drain in their shower so that her hair doesn't clog it. Nic then inspects Paul's bedroom for more evidence of the affair. When Nic confronts Jules about the affair Jules explains that she needed to feel appreciated and Paul gave her that.

10. One of the last scenes of "The Kids Are All Right" depicts Joni starting a new chapter in her life. Why is Joni moving away from her family?

Answer: She is starting college and living away from home.

Joni starting college is a recurrent topic in the movie and her leaving is an emotional time for the entire family. At the end of the film Laser tells his mothers that they should stay together because they are too old to break up.
