I was liking it but that ending...

I don't care the trauma she had from her past or thinking that she doesn't have a prince to save her but to leave everyone hanging like that when they worked so hard to make the play happen is just some utter 100% bullshit.

And yet it's a rather believable and realistic portrayal of how a real person suffering from her issues could behave in such situation.

And your lack of compassion just highlights the fact how hard those people have it in society. There are many people suffering similar disorders - at least on the level of symptoms - in real-life who often can't be 'fixed' as easily as it was shown in this movie. Those would NOT have been able to show up to the play in the last second just because someone manage to 'talk it out' with them. People who would have been scarred again and again because after mustering enough courage to fight against their condition, others once again blamed them for things not working out and being 'normal.'


Your lack of compassion and empathy actually feels a bit disgusting.
Especially since you even admit that the movie 'got to you' in other aspects - so it's not that you're not able to understand - but you still refuse to accept that someone suffering from a social-disorder/trauma just can't be acting 'normal' just by flicking a switch and telling themselves 'ganbatte.'


That said... disliking a story because of the author picking a certain moral/ending over a hypothetical other is pretty much what is wrong with today's perception of literature & media. It's like all people care is to get the expected outcome they prefer instead of challenging themselves and getting a look into different and new things. No wonder all around us becomes more and more like closed-in echo-chambers just repeating the one chant they knew and liked their whole life...
