I re-watched this movie recently, and my opinion of Severine (Catherine Deneuve) hasn't changed, I don't like her at all, she was a woman, with a good life, married to a good, handsome decent guy (surgeon), but she decides to work in a high end brothel in Paris during the afternoons, because of her masochistic fantasies and desire to be submissive.
As a result of her actions and her secret life she caused her husband to become a paralyzed, I do not judge here, but wouldn't it have been better if she had shared her desires with her husband (who by the way was so out of the league of all the men she met in the brothel) who loved her so much and she also supposedly loved him so much instead of what she did???
But anyway, I really want to know other opinions about the end of the movie, we saw Pierre crying after his friend told him the truth about his wife, and then we saw him take off his glasses and get up from his wheelchair and discuss a vacation with his wife.
I think this was just one of Severin's fantasies, but what's the point here? What is the meaning of this ending?
