So Dr. Campbell mentioned in class today that the film kind of blows the story at the end, and it reminded me of the secret dream I had while viewing the first 50 minutes of the film. What I secretly hope will happen, and please don’t laugh, is that Miss Spinney will turn out to be Jenny. Yes I realize this is totally dumb, because Jenny clearly dies in the hurricane, but it would just be fantastic. Because then, not only would Eben be reunited with his soul mate, but then we’d get to look at the question of whether or not age can influence if someone is your soul mate or not. If Miss Spinney turns out to be grown-up old lady Jenny, can she and Eben still maintain the platonic relations they previously had? Can they have a romantic relationship? Can they have a relationship at all? I do hope this isn’t what happens, but I do think Spinney has a thing for Eben.
