Just wathed this late last night..Did I miss something in the script?


Hi there, I just watched this late last night so I mighthave just misheard the dialogue, but didn't Miller's mother tell him early in the film that his father took three years to find their new home upon his return to their town after the war? This perplexed me once the final twist was tightened during the final scene. I can assume perhaps the mother used this as a ruse to keep the truth from young Peter but it doesn't fully add up to me unless I am missing something, which is usualy the case. :):):):):):):):):):):)
