Sibling Rivalry | |
| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_19209d54 | comment |
Sibling Rivalry: A fair share of this. Danny envies Matthew because of his career. Matthew is not happy either because his father never praises him. | |

| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_1da5941e | comment |
The Quiet One: Of the three adult Meyerowitz children, Jean has the least amount of dialogue and focus, though her segment shines a light on her inner struggles and trauma. | |

| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_20989d05 | comment |
Parents as People: Danny loves his daughter and is also trying to get to be with his father more as he didn't get to see him much growing up. Harold does seem to love his children despite how he hoped that his sons would have taken their artistic talents into careers. | |

| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_40c57041 | comment |
Manipulative Bastard: Harold Meyerowitz. He never praised his one successful son in their conversations for not following what his expectations. Instead he praised him to his older son. Both sons feel despised. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Harold is left convalescent after his subdural hematoma and coma and loses Danny's respect. On the upside, Danny does quietly forgive Harold for his poor parenting and the bond between the Meyerowitz siblings has grown much stronger. | |

True Art Is Incomprehensible | |
| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_6c81c95 | comment |
True Art Is Incomprehensible: invoked So that it is not immediately clear whether something is true art or not. It is one of the most significant questions in this film as Harold Meyerowitz was formerly a somewhat renowned artist but now people doubt whether his work is actually worth anything. | |

Fatal Flaw | |
| The Meyerowitz Stories / int_aba8065b | comment |
Fatal Flaw: Harold is a devoted artist but a much less devoted father, alternately ignoring or manipulating his children even when they're adults. Danny loves his family but is insecure and in a state of perpetual arrested development. Matthew desperately craves his father's validation for his non-artistic career. Jean is easily pushed around by her family and rarely raises her concerns. | |
