This is an amazing movie, I especially like the way that Neal comes to the realization that del's wife had passed away... Neal was perceived by viewers, earlier in the movie as someone that was; self centered, judgmental, closed minded, somewhat stressed out, on the outside, but somewhere deep in his mind, you can tell that he wants to be a good natured person again, but he lacks the ability to see it on his own, by contrast Del is perceived by the viewer to be; non-judgmental, unassuming, and has a positive outlook on his life, but on the inside Del is really in emotional pain, and he is trying to cope with his life, and they both are hiding their own issues, Del clearly does a better job, and his positive outlook rubs off on Neal, if you think about it, the old Neal likely never would have thought about someone else's feelings, what he does in the movie, at the end, inviting Del over to his house, would never have happened, if he never met him to begin with, and thats part of what makes the movie unique, both Neal and Del save each other from there own flaws, and basically end up bettering themselves by the end of the movie.
