La mujer que hace lo que ella hizo en esa escena simplemente que cierre ese capitulo en su vida. paso lo que paso y punto, eres parte del pasado y que no siga con su hipocrecia queriendo seguir con el jueguito, con su sentimentalismo despues de haber tomado su decision. Que siga su vida y que deje vivir tranquila a la persona que le cogio su corazon para jugar.
Cuando termina todo tiempo, surgen los miedos y las preguntas. ¿Hacia dónde iremos? ¿Por qué malgasté tantas horas? ¿Qué hice con la única certeza que tuve: la certeza del amor?
It`s kind of a sad story.. Francesca may have loved her husband very much.. But apparently there was an emptiness inside of her that he couldn`t fill.. However it was still wrong that she cheated on her husband.. She should`ve remained loyal to him no matter what.
I cry every time I watch this part. Regardless how mnay times I have seen it, it always brings tears to my eyes. So many emotions in few minutes.
We don't know what would have happened had Francesca left the car. Would her husband who loved her dearly turn bitter, would her children reproach her for leaving them? Would she even be happy with Robert, or would the flame have died after a few months of living a normal life? We will never know.
I absolutely love this movie and want to cry almost everytime i see this scene..It is so powerful and feels so real..I just want her to get out of the truck..Please get out of the truck!! It's such a shame to find love like that then have to let it go..Francesca You're a good women.
Glad I saw this in the privacy of my own home. If I had seen it in the movies they would have needed a mop and pail to get me off the floor. Have never cried so hard or long in a very long time. Washed my soul good..
My Francesca often spoke of this film. Almost three years on since we parted, I've watched this for the first time and was brought to tears. Every day I live with the thought of what might have been and feel flooded with regret for not being braver at the time. Its probably wrong to live that way, but my memories are a source of happiness as well as heartache and moving on feels like an impossible task. My heart will always be with her - I hope she knows that.
What happens when you die? Have you told lies, stolen, used God's name in vain(10 Commandments)? If yes, then you're a liar, thief, and a blasphemer in the sight of God. When you die & be judged by God, you'll be guilty of sin, & go to Hell! But God sent His Son Jesus to shed His blood & die on a cross for your sins, He was buried & rose again from the dead on the third day. If you'll believe the Gospel(Jesus died for your sins,was buried & resurrected)you'll not perish & have eternal life
I was where she is once, bad marriage and then out of no where bam!!!, couldnt leave children, most pain I ever felt, should I go or stay??, ever bone in your body says go, go, go, loike her I stayed, miserable, self sacrifice for the children, they come first maybe when they are older...........................
You are correct "skyboneable"! It is not about sex at all..it is about love! I cheated on my husband but unlike Francesca, I walked away and into the arms of the man that has made me realize was that once in a lifetime love felt like and God has blessed us with a beautiful daughter! Yes, cheating is wrong but I wouldn't go back to my first marriage after experiencing "the kind of certainty that comes but once in a lifetime"! In him, I found myself!
Sometimes it's just not as easy as EVERYONE thinks it should be. You are torn. You never realize the 'great' love that may have been because you make a choice. You punish yourself because you never experience what 'could have been.' But, oftentimes the reasons you choose the opposite of what you want is buried deep within your heart. Sad as it may be, the truth hurts.
Yesterday I had the chance to watch this brilliant movie again. One thing is rounding my mind is if her husband was somehow aware of her affair. When he was old and about to die he tells her he was in love with her and he beg her pardon for not fullfilling her dreams. Did he have a clue about was going on?
@sopelamola i don't think he knew anything.I think her husband was talking about the dreams she had before they got married.She was talking about that with robert.
The book gave me such a lump in my throat - I think the most romantic story I've ever read. Meryl Streep is one of my favourite actors but I always thought Isabella Rossellini should have played the part of Francesca.
Beautiful story - the kind u never forget. And no matter how many times you see the movie - you cry just the same. This part here is probably the most heart wrenching of the whole movie. Once in a lifetime. She stayed because she made a promise to her husband. Thats an honorable woman. But she will carry him in her heart until the day she dies.
OMG....This is so sad but she did the right thing....why leave your family for a several days fling....her foundation with her family took several years to build..no comparison
no matter how boring her life is...those several days is like a honeymoon...what happens after that....?
it wasn't just a fling. actually you have to read the book or watch the movie more intently again to see that she really loved Clint's character and kept it even til her death. also the reason why she requested her ashes to be scattered on the place where she and Robert first met. Robert on the otherhand was featured on one of the magazine's years later wearing the necklace that was given to him by Meryl. so you see, their affection is not a mere fling that would only be physical.
My edith...I will love you till i die in this system... Maybe God will have us live together forever,,,,You are in my entire body , moving like a force to keep me alive...May we meet and be together one day plz... Rick
He loved her because of her character, her duty to her family, her mind, all of these things. She is so very special, and I always thought he loved her for those very traits. I think that a woman who would have left her family and her life she has built too quickly he probably wouldn't have loved as much, for perhaps she would do the same to him. The strong usually make sacrifices for the weak.
meryl streep watches clint eastwood stand in the rain as thier eyes say goodbye....then she returns to reality and turns to a friend..the only divorced woman in the town...but never shares her secret...until her children read her will..that is the way the story is told..as they read it
This is one of the saddest scenes in movie history.
Meryl did not have to say a word, with just her eyes, she was able to convey the hurt and sorrow of seeing for the last time the only man she ever loved.
I am currently facing one of the most intense, painful, and hard moments of my life. I turned my life (and everyone in it) as I used to know it upside down, I do not know what is going to happen, and I can only pray to God that he helps me overcome this, day after day. Truth is I wish my character was Francesca….But as it turn to be, I am Robert Kincaid, I still stand waiting under the rain. His seclusion was a sword that crossed my chest,He never understood how certain I felt.

Truth is I wish my character was Francesca….But as it turn to be, I am Robert Kincaid, I stood waiting under the rain, alone, with my hopes exposed, my feelings aching and my heart broken...Still; I just wait.
I love this movie. I cried and did some internal healing of my own in watching this movie. I let go of a relationship and felt I had to choose between this person or myself..I thought for a split second perhaps this individual never loved me. A huge hole was left within my heart the day I had to turn and walk away. And in watching this movie I swear I can still feel the pain as if it were yesterday

tops in the love movies..no one can beat this for me.as a man,i dont like love movies,but i could watch this on replay anytime,and why my wife does not like this one,i dont know?...
There is a man here who left a post accusing many of us of believing that's it's "okay to cheat". He missed the point entirely here. Not one person here has claimed that it's okay to cheat. He also asked why Francesca couldn't just tell her husband if she was unhappy. If she had, what on earth could this good and simple man have done about that? Nothing. This story is about a type of love that comes out of nowhere. It's not about screwing around. It's not about sex. It's about love. That's all.
@skyboneable You are absolutely correct! It is about love that comes out of nowhere, a once in a lifetime love, there comfortable love then there is set your heart on fire kind of love! Once you experience that set your heart on fire kind of love it's hard to go back to the comfortable love and ever be content and happy again!
@amberblewett I didn't & spent the last 35 yrs regretting it. He died last nov.,.ESRD. We communicated his last 2 yrs. I didn't leave b/c of my 4yr.old. He wouldn't see me b/c of his obligation to his adopted g-son & he was taking care of his Mom. He'd made promises to God & himself. He compared us to Bridges & wrote that "there was a X I loved you more than life.". My love 4 him has grown over the yrs. I think it took yrs 4 me to understand just what we'd had together- what a once in a lifeX.
there is something more beautiful, romantic, and lovely than this scene, well, i dont think so. Dark Vader telling to Luke that he is his father look so heartless next to this scene.
A well directed and acted movie for sure. I'm amused so many on here that think its ok to renig on your marriage vows and cheat. The times we live in I guess. I'm just glad I'm not married to a woman like Fran. Just think, if she goes with Kincaid I wonder what he's gonna be thinkin what his wife is doin while he's off on one of his photo trips? LOL. if she's NOT happy, tell him, don't cheat. Here's a man that has never done anything but what he's suppose to do, he deserves better.
This scene is without a doubt the best acted scene in movie history. Meryl Streep can do no wrong in my book, she is at her best here. She doesnt even need words to convey her heartache. I cry every time I watch this movie, but particularly this scene. Brava, Meryl Streep!
@fern027hotmail avvolte si sacrifica la propria vita x altri,mi chiedo se è giusto,quando si guardone alcune persone pensi di si,quando guardo il mio cuore è l'inverso dei mie pensieri
this kind of certainty comes once in a life time.... you were my certainty and i lost you if only we had been brave miss you now miss you always forever you have my heart
There are men who have secrets wrapped within themselves, their hearts and their souls. Many are extremely deep emotionally and keep it behind thick armor. I've sen many love story movies, but this one has no equal.The English Patient comes close, but is still second.
Yes," This kind of certainty comes but once in a lifetime." Sometimes men can never understand women's feelings in once in a lifetime because men sometimes just don't understand that women have a multiude of secrets wrapped up in one heart or mind or soul... If
Yes," This straNGE FEEling can happen but once in a lifetime." Sometimes men can never understand women's feelings in once in a lifetime because men sometimes just don't understand that women have a multiude of secrets wrapped up in one haert or mind or soul... If
I am so glad that I did not see this movie at the theater. They would have needed a mop and pail to get me off the floor. A friend loaned me her copy of this movie to watch in my apartment. Again I was so glad I was alone. When this part ended I had my face buried in a pillow to muffle the crys of anguish that were coming out of my mouth. Very loud and the pain I was feeling was so real. Like this had happened to me in another life? Fantastic movie
Omg this part the first time i watched it just...broke me. I've engulfed the pain the entire length of the movie, but I couldn't with this. No cheesy and so real.
I want to get out of that car!Even the car is my life and i do not leave anybody.Just myself!Open that door as i believe in a better and happy future.I wish you guys all the best.Always listen to your soul.Brain can't help in same situations.LOVE!is everything
I see it so many times & every time she hold the door I hope that she go ..
Every one that know how strong true love is will believe like me that Meryl & Clint was when they make these movie ( or they really are the best actors in the world !!! ) I love them !!!
I stop my work , leave everything & moove in a other country for my true Love !! don't think just do !!! I schould like to see Francesca going with him ...
this whole sadness kills me every time but I can't prevent myself from watching it again and again, I wish I could have such a beautiful love story, no matter what the consequences are next. It's awful, I can't bring myself to hating any of the characters.
I ja sam nasla svoju polovinu,jos uvek nismo zajedno....nadam se da nas zajednicki dan ceka rasirenih ruku.....Volim ga celom svojom dusom i srcem.....
this is a very very beautiful story, watched this film for the first time tonight. This part got me though, how sad it was but the right thing to do. Such a moving story to everybody! :(
i seen this movie for the first time today and didnt catch some important parts. I didnt catch why it was so easy for her to spend so much time with another man. Where was her husband? It seemed as if she spent a few days with the other man and her husband came home and she was now in love with another man. Im sure i missed some important factors, but I kinda felt sad 4 her husband in the truck not knowing his wifes heart was not with him. Its kinda sad if he didnt know he wasnt her all.
@dzgroove9 her husband and her two kids went to a fair to show one of the kids prize cattle, she stayed behind... my interpretation of her was that she was a lonely woman who longed for her youth, the time before she was someone else's wife and mother, she wanted to go back in time to capture what she never got to do and this man offered that freedom to her, she was infatuated with and was in awe of his travels and him wanting to be able to do that herself.
What a powerful scene. I get a lump in my throat everytime her husband asks, 'Whats he waiting 4 ?' & she reaches 4 the door handle. Tears roll down when he turns the corner & loses sight of the truck. I don't know what I'd do if I were in that position. If her husband were a bad man then by all means, leave him but that wasn't the case. She wanted more in life. So, the question is which would U prefer? Stay in a so-so life 4 the sake of your children or live life 2 its fullest?
I never thought I would experience something from a movie in my own life. I realized that being in love with him; I'm capable of moving forward without him next to me. And although I ache unexpectedly to the thought of our memories together, I manage to let him remain a secret in my heart and just keep moving forward in my life. Any ways, I love this movie and I'm still in love with him.
@Vgmade Hi, Im reading this , what you wrote and I am thinking that I know you. I wondered for a second, " What if this is her?" well I know thats not possible, well maybe it is... This secret you speak of, is more than a secret isnt it. It is instead a feeling, thirst, and hunger to feel again what we once felt. It is an emptiness. Maybe it is replaceable, maybe not. One things for sure, this movie incredibly captures the feeling.
I should not have made nearly the same mistake several years ago...but...I didn't know that I wouldn't forget it . That's life or Destiny I suppose ????????
I should not have mad nearly the same mistake several years ago...but...I didn't know that I wouldn't forget it . That's life or Destiny I suppose ????????
Love should never be a sacrifice.. Things can be worked together if people choose it.. Unfortunately they tend to turn away and fail to see how all love is entwined and can continue.. if only we choose it.
Oh,my God...every time she grabs that door handle i start to sob!!!What a heartbreaking scene...acting beyond the word talent for both Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep! I love this movie!
I love this movie, I hurt for her, I am in same situation, I am her.... it is so painful to have to choose between this life, or life with my true love.
If only the world could stand still for a moment and. . they could hold each other under the pouring rain. . .re-live. . The bridges of Madison county.
... the pain, it's anguish in action... goodbye is such a hurtful place... to sacrifice a life of happiness to a life of lie and misery is beyond comprehension.... :(
No one I know likes this, WHY??? She stayed for the sake of her kids, but her heart was with Robert! It's such a sad and heartbreaking scene, and even though im a guy, It makes me cry so hard because it's so true when she says "This kind of Certainty Comes But Once In a Lifetime" Meryl will never be out-done by an actress, she is the best!
YES. What a "powerful" moment in her life. A decision as huge as a mountain. And time passes... You feel the fights in her head and in her heart. This is what moves me. Remembering the words from Khalil Gibran from his love-poem: "For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning."
it broke my heart first time i watched at this painfull scene..and it keeps on breaking my heart every time, specially now, that i know what is like to be like her. so painfull, so much pain in my heart.
This kind of certainty comes but just once in a lifetime. ♥♥♥ Me and my sister always whisper open the door, open that door please!!! This scene is so heartbreaking and so beautiful! You can feel what she feels :)
@chermaster85 I couldn't agree moore, she is absolutely AMAZING! and this movie is so good, but so heartbreaking! I cry every fucking time, but it's worth it ♥
OMG, I CAN HARDLY STAND IT.....I WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME THING, EVEN THOUGH MY HEART WAS SHATTERED. I FELT MY OWN BREAK AS I WATCHED THE HEART WRENCHING SCENE....SHE ALMOST DID WEAKEN AND RUN TO HIM, ..THE HEAD WAS STRONGER THAN THE HEART....TOO MANY LIVES WOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN UP IN THE AIR....SHE COULDN'T DO IT TO THEM......HE WAS A GOOD HUSBAND AND SHE COULDN'T DISHONOR HERSELF OR HER HUSBAND.....HOW SAD FOR BOTH OF THEM....TO LOVE AND NOT HAVE EACH OTHER IS THE MOST FRUSTRATING THING /
A movie master piece. Tugs at the heart strings and brings a tear to the eyes! Such emotion, such sorrow. How can a movie make you feel and think so much? Two of the greatest actors of all time.
I have made a decision and I am not going to sacrifice my happiness like Francesca. Now that I've found true love and true love found me, I'm not going to let it go. I have filed for a divorce. I have been unhappy for more than 12 years and it's time to be happy with the love of my life! I do plan to write a book about it.
@RMJREC Francesca's choice was the right one for her. I hope your choice is the right one for you. A marriage based on unhappiness is no marriage at all. I hope you'll be happy by following your heart as that is all we can do.
@RMJREC that's OK, because i'm a daughter and i don´t want that my mon will be unhappy for her family, for me, i want that she will be happy ... of course, i fell pain for my father, but if hi was not romantic with her, so it is his fail. sorry english
Don't flatter yourself, sweetie - no matter how unhappy you are, you don't cheat. You go to your whoever and say 'this isn't working' and THEN you leave. You're no better than Jesse James, Lee Ann and Eddie, Mark Sanford, Tiger Woods and all the other losers who don't understand the concept of integrity and honesty.
@RMJREC good luck ....there is nothing worse than spending time with somebody you don't love...it is only one life we live....at least lets live it next to the one we love....
@RMJREC you are so so brave! good luck to you and much happiness. i have made the opposite decision and even though I know its right for me it hurts more than i could ever imagine
if you dont read the book yet try it,much better than the movie, the letter of robert to francesca its breaks my heart everytime i read it! same with this scene!!

it wasn't just a fling. actually you have to read the book or watch the movie more intently again to see that she really loved Clint's character and kept it even til her death. also the reason why she requested her ashes to be scattered on the place where she and Robert first met. Robert on the otherhand was featured on one of the magazine's years later wearing the necklace that was given to him by Meryl. so you see, their affection is not a mere fling that would only be physical.

I turned my life (and everyone in it) as I used to know it upside down, I do not know what is going to happen, and I can only pray to God that he helps me overcome this, day after day. Truth is I wish my character was Francesca….But as it turn to be, I am Robert Kincaid, I still stand waiting under the rain. His seclusion was a sword that crossed my chest,He never understood how certain I felt.

Maybe the doors are not meant to open? Maybe your situation might be worse on the other side. Francesca's husband in the movie loved her very much.

I love this movie. I cried and did some internal healing of my own in watching this movie. I let go of a relationship and felt I had to choose between this person or myself..I thought for a split second perhaps this individual never loved me. A huge hole was left within my heart the day I had to turn and walk away. And in watching this movie I swear I can still feel the pain as if it were yesterday

There is a man here who left a post accusing many of us of believing that's it's "okay to cheat". He missed the point entirely here. Not one person here has claimed that it's okay to cheat. He also asked why Francesca couldn't just tell her husband if she was unhappy. If she had, what on earth could this good and simple man have done about that? Nothing. This story is about a type of love that comes out of nowhere. It's not about screwing around. It's not about sex. It's about love. That's all.
skyboneable 8 months ago 46
@skyboneable You are absolutely correct! It is about love that comes out of nowhere, a once in a lifetime love, there comfortable love then there is set your heart on fire kind of love! Once you experience that set your heart on fire kind of love it's hard to go back to the comfortable love and ever be content and happy again!

@amberblewett I didn't & spent the last 35 yrs regretting it. He died last nov.,.ESRD. We communicated his last 2 yrs. I didn't leave b/c of my 4yr.old. He wouldn't see me b/c of his obligation to his adopted g-son & he was taking care of his Mom. He'd made promises to God & himself. He compared us to Bridges & wrote that "there was a X I loved you more than life.". My love 4 him has grown over the yrs. I think it took yrs 4 me to understand just what we'd had together- what a once in a lifeX.

A well directed and acted movie for sure. I'm amused so many on here that think its ok to renig on your marriage vows and cheat. The times we live in I guess. I'm just glad I'm not married to a woman like Fran. Just think, if she goes with Kincaid I wonder what he's gonna be thinkin what his wife is doin while he's off on one of his photo trips? LOL. if she's NOT happy, tell him, don't cheat. Here's a man that has never done anything but what he's suppose to do, he deserves better.

Again I was so glad I was alone. When this part ended I had my face buried in a pillow to muffle the crys of anguish that were coming out of my mouth. Very loud and the pain I was feeling was so real. Like this had happened to me in another life? Fantastic movie

i seen this movie for the first time today and didnt catch some important parts. I didnt catch why it was so easy for her to spend so much time with another man. Where was her husband? It seemed as if she spent a few days with the other man and her husband came home and she was now in love with another man. Im sure i missed some important factors, but I kinda felt sad 4 her husband in the truck not knowing his wifes heart was not with him. Its kinda sad if he didnt know he wasnt her all.
dzgroove9 1 year ago
@dzgroove9 her husband and her two kids went to a fair to show one of the kids prize cattle, she stayed behind... my interpretation of her was that she was a lonely woman who longed for her youth, the time before she was someone else's wife and mother, she wanted to go back in time to capture what she never got to do and this man offered that freedom to her, she was infatuated with and was in awe of his travels and him wanting to be able to do that herself.
ElvisFreak77 11 months ago 2
What a powerful scene. I get a lump in my throat everytime her husband asks, 'Whats he waiting 4 ?' & she reaches 4 the door handle. Tears roll down when he turns the corner & loses sight of the truck. I don't know what I'd do if I were in that position. If her husband were a bad man then by all means, leave him but that wasn't the case. She wanted more in life. So, the question is which would U prefer? Stay in a so-so life 4 the sake of your children or live life 2 its fullest?

I never thought I would experience something from a movie in my own life. I realized that being in love with him; I'm capable of moving forward without him next to me. And although I ache unexpectedly to the thought of our memories together, I manage to let him remain a secret in my heart and just keep moving forward in my life. Any ways, I love this movie and I'm still in love with him.

@Vgmade Hi, Im reading this , what you wrote and I am thinking that I know you. I wondered for a second, " What if this is her?" well I know thats not possible, well maybe it is... This secret you speak of, is more than a secret isnt it. It is instead a feeling, thirst, and hunger to feel again what we once felt. It is an emptiness. Maybe it is replaceable, maybe not. One things for sure, this movie incredibly captures the feeling.
