Aniston's "fairy tale ending" is a stand-in for the fairly tale ending we want for ourselves.

CNN: We care that Aniston's getting married. Why?

The moral motion of the film is fairly simple the return, and redemption, of a prodigal son but Gray steeps his tale in murky complication, and the staging of every scene, be it downbeat or frantic, is so assured that you barely notice the implausibilities.
