Movie: 'The Time Traveler's Wife' is pleasant, but it should have ...
Henry (Eric Bana) is a term traveler. He has no control over when or where his voyage takes him, nor does he know for how long he'll remain. He can't exchange the past. Can't stop death or tragedy, It is a strange version of Pandora's Box that allows him a unchanging immortality. Then there is Clare (Rachel McAdams) the young woman who has spent her life looking for Henry. Because Henry, somewhere further down the route from when we meet him, often visited Clare through out her youth and adolescence. It would seem that often Henry returns to the same location as he travels and one of those places only just happened to be the woods just beyond the meadow behind Clare's home. But to love a man who often disappears is a fastidious task, even if it is what you have wanted for your entire life.
