Slow burning drama, with a twist. I guessed, or rather wished it in the first half - that if things didn't go that particular way, the film would suck for me. But it turned out exactly as I thought, which made me more excited, than it probably deserves. Still, not many movies are 'allowed' such an ending, so I was pretty satisfied! Anne Hathaway is awesome, and is picking quite the roles, in this, Eileen, and The Idea of You.
