It was so hard to watch this film- very difficult subject matter and incredibly tense. The title speaks volumes: the story is about the separation of two lovers, two genders, two families, two truths, two reasons, two actions, two children... it is about choosing safety or family, the self or others, what is easy or what is right. There is even a sharp contrast between startlingly dramatic dialogues and painfully, moving silences. I also found Roger Ebert's review very strong- read it here.
