Gradations of Love, but not of Truth

Under Suspicion is about the distance that comes between two people, when love becomes split by what we used to be, and what we are. a 60 foot hallway is an eternal night, and each night, the door slams in your face, locks us out, from our heart, from our love. No money, no success, can bring us joy in this dark night. The heart is splintered with the mind, as it slips into the mist of day, like shadows grown long, and thin, like butter over too much bread. The wavering inside, becomes the gradations of love, that mock the truth that will not stray; that is the 60 foot hallway between despair and defense.

The movie did leave me with a question.. perhaps I was too engrossed to catch... but, why did Henry confess in the end? Just to end it? Perhaps he didn't want to live anymore knowing the woman he loved, was certain of his guilt? The acting of this movie was incredible. When Gene Hackman walks away from Bellucci at the end, it was truly the turning point and a mjor point of the story. He finally let go by walking away, and that was heartwrenching to see. I thought it was a terrific film, Id give it a 9 of 10. I wonder why it scored so low with the general audiece. I really wanted him to be innocent, and the further the story spun, the more I was certain he was innocent. He was forgetful, he was depressed, he was smart enough to mastermind anything, but he was at heart, a lover, a romantic, and a desperately lonely man. Bravo for a well told story by Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, Thomas Jane and Monica Bellucci.
