The Edge of the Universe to which I was taken was definitely not that of the Universe I expected. The travel got a bit (or quite) weird after the first few minutes. I was expecting to see lots of high resolution photos of the planets and moons that as the satellites passed, then some shots back as they left the solar system. Uh, didn't get those. Went somewhere else entirely. But I eventually understand that my presumptions about the subject were wrong

By end of the film the analogies the director was making were working and I appreciated the insights she was sharing.

Here's a link to a quick video of the director discussing her film. I recommend you watch this AFTER watching the film:




A final note: Her fiance must have some good qualities that were not revealed. After the two comments from the 'conversation' I think any typical future spouse would have dumped the guy....but then I'm a guy myself and don't claim to understand the workings of a woman's heart in general.
