It was okay but the book had more of an impact on me. I read it before the movie came out and had my own idea of what the characters would look like...and they were nothing like they were portrayed in the movie.

Long time since I saw the movie but I think she was a war bride and those women who were lucky enough to get a GI and leave their war torn countries were very lucky indeed. They had been living years of deprivation in all aspects of their lives. They made the choice to survive. Then she was taken to the end of the earth and all that was dear to her and she was a good wife. Then along comes clint and something she never had at the time she should have had it. In the end this is a woman who will survive first and foremost and she knows in her heart of hearts that Clint will never belong to anyone other than himself. She will not give up the known for the unknown and possibilities, which is a young girls gamble. She got all that she could get from the relationship and she now has known real love on her part and she can live with that. She now has memories that she can visit with joy. I don't think she wanted to go with him. She made her decision long before the last look at him. No I would never have gotten out of the car either.

I never saw the movie, but I did read the book long before the movie came out. I loved the book and when I read I get a picture in my head of what the characters look like, so it makes it hard for me to watch the movie if I have read the book.

Yes, I love that movie. I cant remember the end though. I know she was with her husband and then runs up to Clint Eastwood in his car, but I cant remember if she goes of with Clint Eastwood, or stays with her husband. I loved the story and I loved the scenery, even learned about bridges. You have to feel for the wife though. I mean what would you do. Excellent love story. I wonder if it was based on a true story or how many people have gone through similar experience.
