So I stayed up late last night to watch this one- finally and I was sort of disappointed. This is one of those stories that before my kids I might have felt differently about it. But now that I do have children, I found this story totally ridiculous. For me, I couldn't even fathom leaving my kids behind for anything- ever! And then to make it all worse, the man she leaves her child for doesn't turn out to be a real good guy- he leaves her anyway! Ugh... I just didn't dig this one at all. I LOVE the actors in this (the cast is brilliant) and it was filmed beautifully- but the story was awful. I do understand the whole tragedy of the plot but for me, I just didn't feel for this woman at all...
I have to add this to my must see list! I really should get dvr :/
the kind of beauty you don't see today
