To the Wonder Page #3

Synopsis: Neil (Ben Affleck) is an American traveling in Europe who meets and falls in love with Marina (Olga Kurylenko), a Ukrainian divorcée who is raising her 10-year-old daughter Tatiana in Paris. The lovers travel to Mont St. Michel, the island abbey off the coast of Normandy, basking in the wonder of their newfound romance. Neil makes a commitment to Marina, inviting her to relocate to his native Oklahoma with Tatiana. He takes a job as an environmental inspector and Marina settles into her new life in America with passion and vigor. After a holding pattern, their relationship cools. Marina finds solace in the company of another exile, the Catholic priest Father Quintana (Javier Bardem), who is undergoing a crisis of faith. Work pressures and increasing doubt pull Neil further apart from Marina, who returns to France with Tatiana when her visa expires. Neil reconnects with Jane (Rachel McAdams), an old flame. They fall in love until Neil learns that Marina has fallen on hard times. Gripped

I felt wild.

I don't know.

What are you laughing at?

You.

- Me?

- You make me laugh.

You make me happy.

You took me.

No.

Girl.

Little girl.

Fool.

Here I am.

Yes.

I feel stripped bare.

I don't know

where I'm going.

I return to my apartment

and collapse.

I can't take it here

anymore.

Paris is dreadful.

I don't see Tatiana.

She's gone...

To live with her father.

I can't find a job.

I want to come back

to the states.

I met someone who told me

He'd marry me

so I could get a green card.

Tell her.

I trust you.

I want to be your wife.

I love you.

Walk away.

I thought I knew you.

Now I don't think

you ever were.

What we had was nothing.

You made it into nothing.

Pleasure.

Lust.

Ma'am, if you'll come

over here.

Sir, if you'll be

on this side, please.

You all have rings

for each other?

"To love, honor

and cherish you."

"Be faithful only to you."

"As long

as we both shall live."

"And I do promise

before these witnesses..."

"And I do promise before

these witnesses..."

"To love, honor

and cherish you..."

"To love, honor

and cherish you..."

"To be faithful

only to you..."

"To be faithful

only to you..."

"As long as we both

shall live."

"As long as

we both shall live."

I feel so close to you...

That I could almost

touch you.

There is always this

invisible something...

That I feel so strongly...

Which ties us so tightly together.

I love this feeling...

Even if it makes me

cry sometimes.

It is so strong,

this conviction...

That I belong to you.

Maybe you'd like me to stop

telling you I love you.

I know that strong feelings

make you uneasy.

Tell me if that's so.

See my bracelet.

It's pretty.

Where's it from?

How's everything there?

You miss being here?

It's great here.

Honestly, at dad's

it's so much fun.

Did the tooth fairy steal it?

No, I'm the one

who took it out.

It didn't hurt?

You're so pretty.

The divine presence...

which sleeps in each man,

each woman.

You say...

"Christ said this."

"Christ said that."

What do you say?

And what you say,

does it come

from god within?

Answer that...

which is of God,

in every woman,

every man.

Know each other

in that love,

that never changes.

I'd like to show you

here on the monitor.

This is the area

of your uterus,

and the I.U.D. That you

have in place there.

We feel like one of the

less risky procedures

that we can do is

to remove this device.

And we see if those

symptoms don't resolve.

I think something that

you and your husband

need to consider

is with the absence

of the I.U.D.

Is this a time that you may want

to think about children?

Or is there another means

for contraception?

So I don't need to have
