Line 1:
{{work}}
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Even taking into account the time-span between Susie's murder and Grandma Lynn's arrival at the house, she seems remarkably blase about the fact her eldest grandchild had been murdered.
** Perhaps it's clearer in the novel, but the film's loose depiction of the timeline leaves open the weak possibility that she dealt with the initial shock of the event in a previous visit more immediately after the murder.
*** IIRC, Grandma Lynn's equivalent visit in the novel is much, much later in the timeline than it is in the movie.
Line 15:
* [[Tear Jerker]]: ''Many'' moments, especially {{spoiler|when Susie meets the other murder victims and the youngest one runs up and gives her a hug.}}, but your mileage may vary between certain scenes.
** From the book: when the family dog dies, Susie worries that he won't recognize her after so many years apart. {{spoiler|He does}}.
* [[Tough Act to Follow]]: After directing ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' and sweeping the Oscars, it wasn't exactly going to be easy for Jackson to bring out an encore.
