If She Had Married Pinson: Predictions. Intelligent discussion anyone?


What would their kids be like? Would they be good/bad parents? What would Adele do when Pinson had to leave for something? How would Adele handle it if Pinson said something mean to her out of spite or stress? Would Adele become needy or clingy? Would Adele show Pinson off a lot? If Pinson had been successfully hypnotized to love Adele, would Adele eventually become dissatisfied? How would that be different than if Pinson just decided to marry Adele? If you were Pinson what would you do?
Got any answers?

Ebert wrote, "... Adele was mad, yes, probably - but she lived her life on such a vast and romantic scale that it's just as well Pinson never married her. He would have become a disappointment."

Adele was much better off with that kind stranger who brought her back home than with Pinson who was cruel and deceitful.

I did love the near-to-final moment when she walked past him, he had already failed her expectations and become irrelevant.

Or else Adele had so completely lost her mind by that point, nothing mattered anymore.

This world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.

If I were Pinson with the system played out in those days, I would have had Adele in prison for stalking and harrasments. That or threaten to go in public about her insane obsession toward me and publically shame her name which will be linked to her father's name and reputation if she didn't leave me alone.

Adele didn't love Pinson, if she did she would have let him go and stopped ruining his life.
