My theory on this movie+ ending (spoiler)

Elly did NOT die. "a bitter end is better than endless bitterness"..she agreed with this statement. This is the focus of the entire thing.. she ran away from her fiance, because he was controlling and perhaps abusive. In her mind by doing this the "end" would be bitter for everyone, but better than having to deal with him.

Also, perhaps her so called fiance was just her boyfriend she wanted to run away with? so he wasn't her REAL fiance.. Thats why he took her bag with him. And didn't phone her parents.. because they wouldn't know who he is.

^Others have mentioned this too.

No, you saw a facial expression

No, we saw her face in the morgue just before we see her fiancé grieving.

Elly is dead. The fiancé took the bag because, well, its not any of the other characters' responsibility nor their right, is it? The entire film was all these people taking a matter into their own hands that they never should have and messing around - not maliciously but unfortunately - that somebody has died and they must still keep secrets and hide things for the most *beep* of reasons.

It's all out. They have nothing to hide at the end. That's the point.

Elly did NOT die.

.......and, yet another patented example on IMDb boards of inventing a new theory rather than just deal with what the filmmaker intended.

Next, there will be a thread that Elly was dead all along!

Or, how about ALL of the adults in the movie conspired to kill Elly! She didn't die at sea! No, they all strangled her and tossed her corpse into the ocean!

Better yet - ELLY never even existed!

The Director has apparently said that Elly is dead. Discuss that in context, rather than invent "what ifs". And, as I wrote in another thread: Elly is actually, in many ways, the least important of the adult characters in the film. It's not really "about Elly" as much as "about how the others react in the wake of a tragedy"
