Holden goes to Central Park in New York City, and sits by the frozen pond where, in the Spring, the ducks would be swimming. He is despondent, having left the hotel because of his confrontation with Maurice. He sits there thinking that he could get pneumonia and die.

He starts to think about his death and his funeral, who would attend, then he remembers that his mother is still mourning the loss of her son, Allie. The thought of his sister Phoebe being sad at his death is what stops Holden from staying in the park and freezing to death.

It is his love for his sister that keeps Holden from committing suicide

Consider the following sentences:

Eddie went to a movie theater with his friends to see the new fantasy flick (The Gremlins Attack the Mouse People) and they sat through the movie twice.

that's one way you could do it. when using parenthetical elements, you want to be aware of what exactly parentheses do--they offer further information, almost like an aside of sorts. it isn't necessarily vital information and most people use parentheses instead of commas to show an exception or give extra information. the best way, i would say, to add parentheses to these sentences is by inserting the "extra" info that follows "flick." the name of the movie isn't necessarily important, but you include it anyways.
