Thanks for the recommendation on this. I just watched it last night.

So I believe she sets up the need to be "saved" in the final ski run. It gives Tomas the chance to be a man again, and carry her down the hill in front of the children. His dominance is re-established and the kids, and the family, is happy again.
But what I didn't understand was it seemed like he was in on it too. He carried her down to the kids, they saw she was OK. And then he put her down and sort of flippantly said "do you need any help" and as she turned to walk back uphill to her skis or whatever, she said "nah, I got it". I really just thought that was weird and I don't think it supports your interpretation.

It wasn't a real emergency. The bus driver was terrible, but they weren't going to die.
That seems somewhat in question. The driver did look frazzled. The question was why that bus on that road?
quote:
but Tomas backs her play and he takes the kids off for her. This establishes a neat question of how much she over-reacted to the avalanche in the first place
I had a different reaction: once again, SHE had to take charge of a possibly fatal situation and do all the heavy lifting while he simply stood passively by.

So this means admitting to your kids that yes, you smoke. It's him living up to his promise of honesty and not worrying about the image he presents, and instead actually being the person he claims to be.
Totally agree.
The movie was billed as a "comedy drama". Was anything else really funny besides the bizarre hallway janitor guy?
