Warning: Spoilers
Can't add anything new here other than this movie does a good job of tackling adultery, the troubles with marriage, children, gossip, friend's problems becoming your problems, etc. It's serious and emotional at times but does a good job of mixing in humor to lighten each emotional blow. It's enjoyable because it allows you to think about relationships, real life situations, and then come to your own conclusions. Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep do an amazing job with a challenging subject matter and Nora Ephron did a good job of adding in some light hearted points to make it watchable. It's crazy this is somewhat autobiographical to Nora Ephron and she does a good job of asking what is important in a marriage. For those of you who fall asleep during the movie, the answer is trust. Love only goes so far if you can't trust the person you're with.
