Like the title - it reminds me of the understory of Fringe - the bald guys who generally do not change things (but can - and sometimes do). Who ARE those bald guys???

"In the face of overwhelming odds, he must either let her go and accept a predetermined path... or risk everything to defy Fate and be with her."
I suppose "Love will conquer all". It normally does in these type of movies- but never in real life.

awww...Lorelei - sometimes it does. It's just for us, that perfect union with Love seldom holds fast. We find each other and then are whirled away by death or whatever (dementia is a kind of death). There was a story in Reader's Digest about a young boy (now old) who had spent time in a Polish concentration camp. Somehow he and a little village girl caught each other's eye and she would throw an apple or potato through the fence to him. In doing so, she risked more than she might have realized.
Years later he had survived the camp and been married and then widowed and was living in New York. An old woman came up to him who seemed somehow familiar and ...yup...it was his childhood friend. They married at 80 or something and were able to hold each other (finally). How likely is THAT?

It was for a very short time of happiness, but it is not how long but how you live it.. They found each other.. meant to be. I have a movie which tells a story like this one. Something of the sun. I forget it now. A boy is in a prison camp and is friends with a boy on the other side of the fence. It is a Japanese camp. He gives him food. Now I will wonder about this for a week..

It is said..that when we are created we have a 'perfect' partner..we are half of a whole..given at the beginning...together in the ever after..sometimes we encounter them during incarnations, sometimes not and we spend our lives yearning for the other half of ourselves. I don't know if that tale is true but I'll be willing to bet it is. I feel it is.
