FILMS MEANING ***SPOILERS***


I find it hard to believe that so many have fallen from faith to not realize what the ending represented.

Some understood, but not many, especially the Poster that said you know that she lived because of how the movie starts. Then the Poster said this film violates Thriller Writing 101. Sorry Poster , but you are incorrect.

It's about the path of an individual, and her coming to terms with her decisions.

If you pay attention... When Maria breaks the bottle on Paul's head, a piece of glass cuts Dina's throat.

Yet in the car, there was no mark on her neck. If it was her "Physical Body", there would have been a scar.

When you die, your life is said to flash before your eyes. In a sense this happened for Dina. She recounts everything to Peter. (St. Peter... Ring a bell?)

She discusses what her a Maria spoke about while she was strapped to the table. (Recounting her childhood perhaps?)

Then she tries to blame Paul and Maria... Peter defends Maria. (Thou shalt not judge?)

As Dina lays on the bed at the end.... "I wish I would have been a better person..." Seeking atonement? Maybe....

I won't continue my rambling. But if you have a half of brain, and "WATCH" this movie, which I thoroughly enjoyed, you will know what they writer was getting at.

Also, Saint Peter wanted to show more people the prototype for his jump to conclusions mat. See, it was a mat, and on the mat there were these different conclusions that people could jump to! He wants to be like that guy who invented the pet rock.

The meth heads didn't mind. One seemed to prefer the aftertaste of poop.

Now that is funny. :-)
