Romantic story? The movie is trying to normalize the disabled. They are people too, they think, they understand their condition, they live relatively happily in rehab clinic. Yes, no, pain of 'One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest." Moreover, the bipolar's excited state might so great that a 'normal' person can so deeply and 'happily every after'-ly fall in love.
The movie ends nicely, as in we will be together every after, when the mentally sick person gets better --- what is this? The authors simply did not know how to end it, giving a false positive spin to a hopeless situation.
I feel that this false expectation that the movie sets for the disabled, for the seriousness of their disability, for the seriousness of the impact their condition has on their close ones and society is a whole is insensitive and even offensive.
It's beautiful movie, but that's exactly what makes it offensive, cause the reality is far from pretty.
