>>I totally did not pick up on something more with Luisa the first time around, other than her getting that test score on not being "a fully realized woman" in the magazine at the doctor's office.<<<
To me, her extreme highs & lows reflected this to me & the nature of her calls to her husband...(especially when she said that she took no money, just his shirt)... >>An see, this is one reason i am so keen on other people's opinions, because this is so questionable - again,. am I seeing that because of the prism of my life or not? When they wake up in the fishing village, it was clear to me that the night before was about much more than what we saw in the movie, and after that all joy, and the exuberence that drove the movie,was gone.<<< I didn't get enough info to decide whether much more was going on with them or whether it was just wild experimentation...to me that is the great unanswered question of the movie...I think it could be interpreted either way...but boths ways mean that they changed the dynamic of their relationship forever... >>You think so? I think that the very accurate portrayal of young adult men would make a lot of men anxious since men generally don't handle scenes like the diving boards or the night in the fishing village all that well.<< Maybe, unless they are mature & honest enough to accept that is the reality of boys/young adult men...which it is...from what I've been told & observed
