Added DiffLines:

* NeverTrustATrailer: The trailer makes it look more comedic than it actually is. Granted, the movie isn't completely devoid of humor, but it's more poignant than the trailer made it look.

* LoveTriangle: A variation in that John finds himself competing for Molly's attentions with her son Cyrus.
