I will agree that it was depressing but I guess I like the acting between Leo and Kate and how well they pulled it off. I again will agree not a happy movie but it touched on how matters were handled back in the 50's. "For goodness sakes little lady don't speak your mind or how you feel just buck up and be a good little wife". I often wonder how many women went through that very thing because they were afraid to tell their husbands how they felt. She was trapped and couldn't get out.
