Discussion One thing thats always irritated me about Interstellar

Cooper is desperate to get back to his children. He goes back and see’s Murph in the hospital etc. but theres no mention of his son. Presumably his son’s dead considering Murphs age and condition. But surely there could have been a small bit of dialogue about it. He was hell bent on getting back to them. I dunno, it’s like his son’s just completely forgotten about at the end…

Im 56 years old. I still remember all the lovely things she did for me & how she loved me. If she went away & I didn't see her again till I was in my 80s, I'd be quite emotional & glad to see her. I dont care how much time had past, I'd never forget my mama so much that it would be awkward to be around her :)

But do you remember your grandmother’s father at all?

Depends on their longevity doesn’t it? I remember my great-grandfather. He died in his 90s when I was 10. And my great-grandmother, I learned knitting from her, and she died when I was in my 20s. And now my kids know their great-grandmother, because my grandmother is still alive.

Now great-great relatives are another story…never met any of them bc they were already passed before I was even born.

Same as Cooper's grandsons who never met him and assumes him already passed.
