One of my Top 5 films. I love this movie for its cinematic power.

I do often wonder, however, if the froggy ending could have been avoided and another ending inserted. I'm not saying it was a bad ending, but I wonder what effect a less supernatural ending would have had.

Frogs have rained from the sky's prior....he got all of the "acts of coincidence"
from several books he had been reading..that is what inspired the script.

I understand that... just don't think the movie was really about acts of coincidence, but more about 'we're all basically alone but somehow alone together, and still can reach out and make each other a little less lonely once in a while'. The frogs didn't do much along those lines, but didn't hurt it either... I liked the "wtf?" when I first saw that scene, but upon rewatching this film several times, I just wonder if it spoiled a possibly better unwritten ending. Just a thought.
