It’s her saying: “I see you. And I know you see me.” Which, I think, is the profound connection that they always had—that they felt seen by each other, to their depths. And she’s letting him know: “I see the person you really are, and I always knew you were still in there.” There’s still love there. There’s pain, there’s tragedy. It’s hello, it’s goodbye—to, at least, a chapter of their lives.
[…] I wanted that moment to be that she’s saying: “There’s still a connection. There always will be.”
[…] I feel like she’s letting him know… I mean, there’s a lot. It’s incredibly painful to leave him there. To not take him in the car with me. But I think she thinks that they do have a future, and that he has a future. Both by the fact that they both decided to unburden themselves and free their conscience and also… You know, I’m a hopeless romantic, so I personally think she’s gonna start trying to figure out how to decrease his sentence. But legally, not in a scam. x
It felt right. The great thing about it is it doesn’t say, “nothing’s changed.” It says something else. Because, boy, the circumstances that those two people are in couldn’t be more different. But on the other hand, they’re still… You know, I don’t think they’re ever gonna be finished with each other. I think these are two people who mean a lot to each other. No matter how much they’re seeing of each other, I think that they’re gonna live their lives in relation to each other, until the very end. x
