A real movie... About real people...

This is such a good movie... The subtle acting, the unintrusive directing, the way the layers of their relationship are exposed as the movie goes on, without the characters narrating what we are seeing... the powerful, yet quiet last scene... It's the kind of movie you just let wash over you and feel that you have experienced something by the end...
I can't imagine someone watching this film without wanting to discuss it afterwards, what it means to commit to sharing your life with someone, to know someone and how different it is from possessing them... and what it means to be known and to be possessed in turn...
So good... But where is the discussion?! Have people simply not seen this?!

(SPOILERS)
i know there is a theory some people have online that that is the case, but I don't see it that way...
I think people today think they have to 'solve' a movie as if it were some kind of puzzle... It's a symptom of the TV, video game 'easter egg' culture...
I think the fact that she was pregnant and that Kate never had kids from her 45 years of marriage are related in the sense that Geoff had something more that connected him to his earlier love...

I've seen Olive Kitteridge, excellent mini series...
i understand why you asked that question and it is valid in terms of motivation and characterisation... But Geoff seemed much more of a self centred, narcissistic type rather than a killer manipulator... I think the betrayal Kate felt and realises at the end is not that she has been married to a monster, but that she has shared most of her life with someone who is actually indifferent to her...
I think you should check out the movie if you haven't as it is not something that one can sense just reading a summary online...

What is the meaning of the ending?!
