Man, a self-professed hero of the people, is more than happy to throw the woman he pretends to love under the bus when a crisis looms in his political career. A crisis he created, she tried to fix, then when is looking like he's going to be caught for it, he insists she take the fall for it, all on her own. Doesn't give a shit that she's his wife, or carrying his unborn child. Only about his career.

She was willing to sacrifice family heirlooms to try and save him from his own dark past, and in the end, all she gets for it is the sad realization that he's far worse of a human being than those he's trying to replace.

At least she had the good sense not to hang around for the next change to take the fall for him, after he miraculously dodges a bullet he had already tried to aim at her head.

Good movie, with a really tragic ending, instead of the usual Hollywood "Happy Ever After" bs.

07/26/2020 Much of the movie plays out without the viewer understanding where it's going? The only clarity for me was the final moments as the wife is waiting, all alone at a bus stop. It's apparent that she feels relief, her burden behind her and future unknown. I too have experienced the push/pull of separation/unknown change and final relief of the long carried load of life's stress carried for years. There are tears of sadness for what was and exhilaration for what the future might hold? I hope that you get much more out of this movie than I did. Bon Appetit'

Why would certain individuals act in a certain way and why would they even do certain things? Revenge or other feelings against certain people. We get a beginning that lays quite a bit out for us. But it is step by step that other things get revealed.

It's a thriller drama that has a few things going for it. The acting is good and the movie is decent overall. There's better movies out there, but this isn't bad at all
