grace + peter/michael? (contains spoilers)

She ended up with Michael. Peter remained friends with both of them. If the dialogue between Grace and Michael was unclear to you then pay attention to the body language of the three at Kippy's funeral. While they are seated together with Grace in between the two men, she and Michael are sitting very close together. Peter is with them, but lacks the same intimacy. Hope that helps.

Oh! you mean that there was a romance in the story. But, don't most motion pictures have that?

It's been five years since you wrote that. Has no one written back? That's sad. By now you probably have lost interest as well. But, I suspect the lack of interest came from an oversight.

The plot is very human: Peter wants to be seen and appreciated -- by his own admission, he was dumped because he was boring. Alas, this is far from unusual. To put it bluntly, his life sucked because he never put himself at risk. So, in a thankfully short story arc, Peter takes initiative. He joins a theatre where he is forced to take the lead because of its current director's belief in reacting. Of course, a chance meeting with a young with-it actress puts him back on his desperate romantic spin -- but wasn't that bound to happen? The actress herself is in love with another very talented very gregarious fellow who is taking his relationship with her for granted. But, the unreal world of the theatre allows her to temporarily cast this to the wind and she takes up a very momentary relationship with Peter, who learns that friendship is more than romance or sex, if its real. In the end, who gets the girl is not the issue and we are left with three friends celebrating the life of a man who indirectly brought them all together.

To Be is not to be: it is to exist with confidence in sublimation.
