"[Bates had explored some of the themes of the story Ã¢â¬â depression, overcoming fears Ã¢â¬â before. Marriage, however, was newer territory.] It's always presented either as the romance or the tragedy, ... We don't look too often at what marriage really is. Marriage masks thousands of different arrangements Ã¢â¬â behind the scenes, it's all about change and negotiation and compromise. But we have the same attitudes toward marriage that we have toward death and dying Ã¢â¬â we want to sanitize it."
