Most tragic moment....

Yeah, so I know that end was rather emotionally poignant, but I have to say that it wasn't the one that got me the most.

The moment I thought most tragic (not that there was difficulty in finding these) was when the mother burned the Mandrake root. It made me really interested in her back story. When had she stopped believing in fairy tales? When had that hope drained from her? She had to have been a little desperate after her husband died. Her daughter describes her as having cried a lot and she seemed depressed. And then there was that scene where she describes how she met Mr. Psycho and the other women made a big deal over the circumstances being very 'curious'.

Anyway, this is just my two cents.

Yeah, i wonder what she meant by that also(how the captain got her to marry him)...

Maybe he used something magic to get her interested in him? hmmm

How did her husband get killed?
