a little hard to believe...(spoiler)


That no one had any idea throughout the movie that they were the same person? No one even stopped to think about it, even for a second? I realize that the mayor and his wife were busy with their own agenda, and the mother of his baby was pre-occupied with how she he's going to support her son with no money coming in, and having to turn tricks, but really?? No one thought hmm..they look more like brother, and sister than they do husband, and wife? Why do you never see them together? They even seem to be the same height. I also realize it's a small town, and they've probably never seen a man dressed as a woman, but still. lol. With that being said it was an ok movie. The ending I think could have had more closure, but I understand them leaving it open too. Just a few thoughts.

some married couples tend to look more and more like each other over time. I've seen couples who look creepily like twins. it's just a thing.

It's in the script.....
meaning, simply, that movies are not real life, and writers are able to create whatever they wish, because they are not real.

I agree, no one even mention how john and Emma look a like, which makes this couple more questionable!
