What happened in the end?


Just watched this movie recently but I missed the ending. I got up to the part where Liev rescues the woman on the ice.

What all happened aFter that?

BTW what ever happened with that woman that he got the puppy from? I was expecting her to be a main character after that part, but it seemed to simply never mention her again even though he scored a date with her...I was expecting to at least see something there...

Not much at all. Murph retired, Paul gave him a keepsake (Hand of Fatima). 4 minutes, tops. Good song as they rolled credits.

I thought they kept the woman's part of the story going with that short vignette where they seemed to be hanging Christmas lights together (it was a long shot, so not totally clear it was the same woman, but I assumed it was). There was also a child in that scene, presumably her son or daughter?

My understanding is that this was basically a screenplay (play?) about the two men's relationship, so they didn't want to distract from that. But it was nice to see that vignette.

There was also the vignette that seemed to be of children running through a hay maze. Not sure of the relevance of that, except maybe it was another scene with Peri Gilpin's child.

The seasonal vignettes were depicting no one in particular going about some action that was indicative of the season.

At first I was confused: "Who is that guy uncovering his pool?" "Who is that guy chopping wood?"

They are just random people, not any of the main characters.

The seasonal vignettes were very effective in showing the timeline of the main characters friendship.

One of the benefits of living in New England is the beautiful season transitions.
