Plot?



I will likely not get to see this film for a long time, if ever, living in Alaska. Could someone tell me some basics of the plot? Specifically, I want to know what happens in the end. The things I've read about it hint at a tragedy or something sad happening at the end.

***MAJOR SPOILERS OF THE END*******





























In the end, Marilyn Monroe hangs herself after the impersonator's first, very lackluster, performance. Michael moves back to Paris.
After one of the nuns attempts at flying, one ends in tragedy as the plane crashes and the nuns and wreckage wash ashore on the coast of a beach.

Its definately something more than flying nuns and impersonaters. Its all metaphorical. (I just finished the film, so I'm trying to sort out all the metaphors myself, but in a few days, I might have it all sorted out. lol) It didn't seem like Marilyn had great self-esteem, otherwise she would have been living as her own identity. It didn't help that her husband was neglecting her and was downright mean. That have have contriubuted to her suicide.

Also, the real Marilyn Monroe may have commited suicide (depends on who you ask) and maybe she wanted to go down like her.

Pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space 'cos its bugger all down here on Earth.
