I would have given it a C+. But the Breck hairspray commercial ending (Irish Spring soap) was nauseating.

  original and well done. So that boosted it up to a C+. Until it went to "Jazz Heaven" as Woody Allen would call it. The happy ending for audience members who just could not endure a sad ending.

    Hum...Look it is also what I thought. That scene WAS original and I would have react the way you did, BUT after further reflexion I decide that this " confession " scene actually was in the novel, and not coming from the director, as no one making such a bad film can have such a good idea.
    
    Now read the book and tell me if I am wrong....

      had commercials featuring couples running along the beach hand in hand. Same with Irish Spring soap, lots of pictures of hand in hand couples running together through (supposedly) Ireland. That's what I was comparing the ending of Atonement to.

        couple running hand in hand happily on the beach when we know it never happened. Sickening! So whats up in Deutschland, btw? I just bought Andreas Vollenweider live from a little store in D�sseldorf.

        Good old Germany?
        Well in Germany today good new, the unemployed did get down to 8,4 % which is good new.
        Vollenweider? Well that was I use to hear a long time ago!
        It was quite relaxing, I must have a few vinyls somewhere.
