i have to admit and at the end of the movie i be at first disappointed . you be leave with so many unanswered question . why do not sean remember who the old lady be and why do not he remember his lover when he meet her . if the love letter be write by nicole kidman character and how do we even know that the content of those page give him the insight he have into her personal life . anne hesh character wasn not present when the recording of the kid and what he say be play . so how could she have know for herself the validity of the kid testimony . why would a ten year old boy put himself in such an awkward position where he be obviously aware of the damage it could cause the people involve . i feel this be the director intention for the movie . kidman be right on the money when her character explain to her fiancé that it wasn not her fault when refer to how everything happen . it end the way it should have because who run away with a ten year old boy and tell him you will wait until he 21 to get married . this show reality of life and how we can not live in the fantasy . in my opinion nicole kidman do a wonderful job in portray a woman who have lose her true love . the movie for me show the anguish and torture love can cause and how it never disappear even when you belong to someone else . the final touch be the song played during the credit . the tone of the music set an uneasy mood and that be chill yet sweet and this be the feeling i be leave with . bittersweet . i love it .
