Comment on ending?


**Spoiler Warning ***


After Werner dies and she is so desperately sad, was I the only one who thought "Serves you right, you stupid b**ch."

I would not go that far but she may have had the rest of her life to realize she did not handle this correctly or regrets having said anything at all. she won't be able at her age to come to grips with this no matter how much fun she had she was not in love with the guy but just enjoying what he brought to the table and how long will that last every memory she has of the last thirty years is with someone she broke his heart with and may have sent him to his grave.

I *completely* agree.
While Inge certainly has the right to experience happiness wherever she may find it, to blubber to Werner about how much pain *she* is in demonstrates her complete lack of awareness of the difference in magnitude of their respective pain...and the fact that she alone is responsible for it.
All I could think at the end of the film is "Good luck dealing with your guilt".
