You know, I've watched the movie multiple times since posting this, and also read the play, and I've come to the conclusion too they do last :) I think I was just bitter about how boring Cummings is but you're right, Mark is a nice guy who genuinely cares about her, and could hopefully provide her with some much needed comfort after everything she's been through. I think another thing people ignore with the Margot wanting Tony to retire side is that Tony was getting way too old for tennis; if you look it up, some players retire as young as 27. Yes, Milland was a bit older than the character is meant to be, but I'd assume he's meant to be approaching 40 by him saying the picture with Swann was over twenty years ago.
