Someone please tell us what would have been a good ending for this movie since so many of you think the one it has is so bad. Tell us something that would have represented a step forward; what you would have liked to have seen. I honestly would love to know.
Woman, man! That's the way it should be Tarzan.

So it's more important to you that she make cars rather than babies and a home for her family. What would have been a happy ending in your view or are you saying go with a non-happy ending? Perhaps she could have been shown making a big deal with the bankers to save her ailing company or maybe losing the company, having no life and flinging herself from her office window. Who doesn't love a movie that ends like that?

Ugh is right. When that man said a woman should not run a co. I about screamed. It was the times then but the ending still was bad.

No two persons ever watch the same movie.

I was frustrated by the ending because
he didn't ask her to give up running the company; she gave it to him and told him she'd be raising children. What was up with that? She'd never shown the slightest interest in children up to that point!
Absurdity: A Statement or belief inconsistent with my opinion.

At first I was frustrated with the ending too. But I've been thinking about it, especially the thing Thorne said about her being four different women. To me the real Alison is the CEO and the gal bringing home the guys for "meetings". If there had been an epilogue or 2 years later thing at the end, I think it would have shown her back at work. She would have gotten bored and frustrated with Thorne and acting the way she thought he wanted her to be.
