after i saw this i conclude that it be most likely a chick flick while afterward i find out that keira mother write the screenplay so that pretty much confirm it . however and a chick flick can have some appeal to men while this one do not and really seem not to appeal that well either to woman ( look at the dismal box office receipt ) . one item that i believe both gender agree upon be the stupidity of the the scene and in the movie and whereby an analogy be make between the pain of childbirth to the pain of a limb be amputate w or o anesthesia . though men do not undergo the pain of childbirth we understand that it be a painful process while yet it be a natural pain whereas an amputation certainly be not . woman understand this even well . i suspect some woman be try to make a feminist statement that be in poor taste . in fact and a lot of thing in this movie be in very poor taste . though movie nowadays be know for have poor taste this one really excel in that department . this could have be a good movie that show the struggle of dylan thomas during wwii while and how strong the sentiment be against men who somehow manage to avoid serve in the military then . keira screen write mother try to show how this sentiment be use against dylan but really muddle this . instead we get a chick flick about how two young mother bond together while sort of . in a way . perhaps . somehow . of note be the fact that a soldier ( the husband of the friend of dylan wife ) be send back home after serve in combat while yet it be unclear if the war have end . a lot of thing about this movie be similarly unclear while and though i have state that already i will do so again a it seem to be the central motif of this mess .
