  1. Iโ€™ve seen two different endings for this film. As I recall, the story remains the same but the character interactions are different. Does anyone else have this recollection or information about the slight changes?

  3. This was an excellent movie!! The one surprise for me was Lorretta Youngs roll. I mean no offense but this roll could have gone to someone new, a beginner. To me its like she is such a fantastic actress that this role was so overdone I didn't like. Maybe they thought it needed another big star in order to sell at the box office. Am I alone in this or does anyone else see what im trying to say??
