This movie is a artistically and tragically told classic. One is swept, with break neck speed to the heights and dashed with equal velocity to the lowest most jagged, rocky depths. Rocks, where Emma is crushed on the destructive edges of her own inability to be content, with less than the best of everything. She leaves a stable, great love, for the the arms of reckless passion, not once, but twice. Emma ultimately, wrenchingly, betrays herself.
