I just watched this on TBS tonight (I'm sure it was VERY edited! LOL). However, the ending really made me wonder. Here they are talking about Mexico, but when I look up from grading my papers -- I see they're sitting right next to the police station at a stoplight. It turns color a couple of times and then the movie just ends! WHAT THE HECK???!!!! I have NO idea what they were trying to imply -- but I'd love someone else's ideas. Was she crying because she knew they couldn't hide it, so Mexico was just a dream and the man was going to turn himself in? Was she crying for all that they had been through and in relief that they could start again? I tend to think the first is "right" since it was such a dark movie, but I really don't know. Sorry to bring up an "old" movie, but I haven't seen it before.

Teach, I think I've read somewhere else that one of the alternate endings or deleted scenes on the dvd makes it clear that the husband is turning himself in. Good movie, I just saw it for the first time too a few months ago.

I saw it in the theater and I enjoyed this movie. I think you can interpret one of two things. 1. Conclude he is turning himself since they are near the police station and the light turns green and they don't move. 2. Or conclude they will go to Mexico (carrying their guilt) but the police station symbolized they will be always be be looking over their shoulders. Now I want to watch the DVD and see the alternate ending.
