Most people cannot handle truths

Rating: 10/10 (30 January 2005)

It is a very interesting and riveting film The story is about love, hatred, betrayal, truth, sex, infidelity etc. I think we can learn a few things from this film:
(1)Very few people in this world have the luxury of finding and getting true love. So, if you marry or live with somebody you do not truly love or somebody you think you love, and one day, you fall in love at first sight with another person, whom you think is your true love, you will very likely betray your original partner. That is one of the many reasons people having affairs.
(2)True love is not only about give and take, romance and passion but also about forgiving and understanding and the ability to accept that fact that we humans make mistakes. So if your partner betrays you and has a sexual affair with another person, can you forgive him/her completely? Unfortunately almost all people cannot, and most people want to know the truth but cannot accept the truth and once the truth is known, the relationship,even if the couple can get back together, is never the same again (just look at the last scene when Julia ROBERTS lies on the bed and I am sure she is not happy with her rekindled marriage)
(3)If you have the courage to betray your partner, do not feel guilty and it is best to keep it discreet and secret. If you feel guilty, please do not commit adultery. If you tell your original partner about the infidelity, then your relationship will never be the same again, even if you get back together
