KANK pretends to be a "realistic" film about things that can happen in everyday life. ![]() It doesn't even vilify the spouses that were cheated on and doesn't make the viewer hate them (even if it did, I'd still stick to what I said above about cheating). KANK may have wanted to hint at some things that may cause marital problems. At least it gives both people the respect of their time and knowing the truth and having the freedom to live their life however they want without deceiving someone else to do it. If both parties reach a solution where it seems the only way out is a divorce (so sad), so be it. Problems arise in almost every marriage, but should first be solved by good communication.
