The end of the affair, directed by Neil Jordan, tells a tragical love story set in London during the Second World War. The film, based on a novel by Graham Green, is starred by Ralph Fiennes, who played the part of a writer in love, and Julianne Moore, a married woman who acted the role of his lover.
From my point of view, the plot is quite good because it’s not the classical love story, it explains an unusual love triangle formed by a husband addicted to work and incapable of showing his true feelings to his wife, a woman tired of feeling lonely and a jealous and passionate writer. I think that the relationships among this three people are very surprising, above all at the end part.
Of course, love is the main topic in the film. As I see it, Neil Jordan focuses the plot on the battle between the affair of the main characters (human love) and the potential existence of miracles (divine love). The result is a deep analysis of human feelings about loving and believing.
It seems to me a great film because of the psychological treatment of the people and the development of the facts. That’s the reason why you cannot see it only once!
