Oh yeah I completely agree. I couldn't have said it any better, crunked. :D
shareNo, the final kiss was actually a flashback. So not happening at the end of the movie.
shareIt's not a flashback, look at her clothes.
shareYeah it's when she comes back because the first time she doesn't kiss back.
Doesn't Jude Law's on-screen kisses make you complteely melllllllllllllt..?
norah has very sensual and the perfect shaped lips!! [2]
saw it a couple months ago. perfect movie. loved it! one of this year's best.
"Doesn't Jude Law's on-screen kisses make you complteely melllllllllllllt..?"
Princess, watching one of Jude's onscreen kisses is like landing on the sun with a beach chair under your arm and a cooler of margaritas in hand.
So slide over here and give me a moment...
Haha, perfect explanation.
shareOh that was the best kiss ever! It made me lonely for a kiss like that! Jude and Norah are so beautiful too. I've liked Jude for so long.

If you think that the kiss at the end of this piece o' crap justified the torturous 89 minutes preceding it, then never ever watch "Roman Holiday." Romance of that magnitude would kill you.
shareNow, now don't be snarky. I enjoyed the movie very much. It was cinematically lovely and the acting was amazing. (Norah did an adequate job for a beginner.)
It WAS a heavenly kiss. I have always thought Jude Law was a great actor and he completely made me fall in love with Jeremy.

be good to one another.
jude law absolutely MUST give master classes in kissing. nobody does it better. cold mountain, closer, the holiday and now blueberry. he's unbelievable...
Jude Law's kiss is charming. But the gaze he had on Nora right before he kissed her was lava-molten hot. I wish some guy could gaze at me like that before he kisses me (I would melt).....
shareIt was an interesting way to do the kiss. Better than your usual run of the mill kissing scene. Having said that, something disturbed me about it -
he kissed her the last time she saw him and she had no knowledge of it because she was asleep
now he's kissing her again while she sleeps.
it's not like he has her PERMISSION or anything...which is kind of creepy. what if she doesn't feel the same way about him? I wasn't sure that she did, because she's never indicated she is anything more than a friend to him... she certainly doesn't flirt or anything (not that she would, her personality isn't the type to outawrdly flirt)...
So that somewhat made me feel uneasy re the situation. However I felt better when she started to kiss him back!
It was kind of a fine line for me.
Great post. Very thoughtful. Here is my perspective on this...they got to know each other as people, with vulnerable hearts. Both during their "blueberry nights" (an AWESOME metaphor for being alone, nothing wrong with you, but nobody wants you), and then in Elizabeth's postcards of self-knowledge.
The first kiss was not returned, and was a bit chaste in that Jeremy kissed her hair; just pure loving affection. But if you watch closely, in her sleep Elizabeth's expression moves from tense to a relaxed hint of a smile. She seemed to react to the viewer (if not to Jeremy) in a positive way.
Also, in the final kiss, they were both so vulnerable. She nodded off in Jeremy's presence, which is an act of faith and trust. And Jeremy taking the risk to kiss her was also a risk of faith and trust; she could have jumped up and got all loud and dramatic, and run off. But she didn't, she returned his act of affection. It was really one of the best moments I have seen in a movie in a long time. Cheers, thanks for reading!

I've read in interviews that some of Jude Law's female co-stars have always said that he was an excellent kisser, and i think that shows on film! Other than his great performance as Jeremy, that kiss was seriously amazing! Suffice to say that i had to rewind and re-watch that scene many times to satisfy my inner 'awwww...' moment. I want a Jeremy too!
shareDid anyone else feel the ending would have been SO much better if it didn't have the semi-philosophical voice over about how 'crossing the street is so much easier when the right person is on the other side'? It would have been such a brilliant ending with just the kiss and then the credits.

I think the narrate can sum up the whole idea of the movie which is important to the audience, it was nice share
