This movie makes a real effort to expose some core issues of love relationships. The dramatic format juxtaposes two points of view to the same events and draws out some fairly profound, though simple, truths as the characters struggle to make sense out of their experiences. It's as if they try to discover "what does it all mean?" while figuring out "what does he/she mean to me?" The movie lives in the small world of a specific relationship, not grand cosmic threads.
I don't want to make more out of the movie than is there, but I can't help thinking about the bigger things as these two people try to reconcile their personal versions of the relationship. This is the second time I've seen this movie over a decade. It still strikes me the same way.
