The original title for this is much more obvious

Who knows, hindsight is always 20/20 and all that, but equating a house, housewife and poet with mother nature, God etc...its not the easiest connection.
Another poster just said something like, "Why didn't you like it? This movie made perfect sense." But just because an allegory matches up somewhat, even perfectly for that matter, doesn't exactly make it a good story, IMO. This movie was hard to watch, brutal...aggravating even. I'm all for an allegorical tale that says something, I guess, but this seemed more about, "Hey I'm actually an allegory!". An allegory for its own sake...it seemed hollow, even after having put the pieces together and trying to infer something.
Sure I could be missing something and probably am, but man...this was a rough two hours lol

the current, less on-the-nose title is better... it keeps you questioning yourself for longer i the movie and it does keep the focus more on her, rather than on the use of biblical imagery...

yes it would have this is the first thread i saw after just watching the movie. I was thinking it was about something else but as soon as i read the original title i realized it. The new title is actually what threw me off. I think its a good change I'm not sure i would have watched it if i knew going in what it was gonna be about, but i'm glad i did it was good.
