Added link
I've added a link to the Moviecheat.com page on 21 Grams. This happens to be my site, and I think our 21 Grams synopsis is absolutely of interest to anyone who wants a more detailed look. I've checked the rules and it shouldn't be a problem to add this link as long as it's relevant and informative. But if anyone truly has a problem, feel free to revert.Rasi2290

I changed the end of the plot summary, as someone called "Mary" was introduced. It was definitely Christina who was pregnant at the end of the film, not Mary.......Luckyles 20:02, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

I added that Jack is shown coming back to his family at the end of the movie, since the previous description only mentions Christina's fate, I thought it appropriate to talk about what happens to Jack.

There is a 10 second shot after Sean Penn leaves the automobile of the man he purchases the gun from. In it, we see Christina ostensibly drowned and alone in the swimming pool. This appears to extend the conclusion of the film to suggest Christina's suicide or Cardiac Arrest and drowning. 98.148.100.179 (talk) 01:02, 1 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vashkan (talk • contribs) 23:49, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

So I know this is years after the original post but I'm writing this for anyone in the future... I was a bit confused by the "drowned" scene as well, which is why I looked it up and came across this post. Upon watching the scene again, however, I think I have an answer: The woman shown alone in the pool is Cristina (Naomi Watts) but I don't think she drowned, as she is shown clutching her knees to her chest (rather than floating freely like a corpse). I interpret the scene as an expression of her grief and loneliness and perhaps a contemplation of her own demise. Directly following this pool scene she is standing outside the sports club when Paul (Sean Penn) comes and offers her a ride (he also says to her: "...or do you want to swim?"), so even though the scenes in the film jump around, I'm pretty sure these two follow one another chronologically as well as sequentially. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.181.218.77 (talk) 18:44, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Urban Legend?
This page is included in the category films based on urban legend. Whilst this may be true I can see no mention of it in the article and no source. The only thing that i can think of is the title is based on the urban myth of the soul weighing 21 grams, and if that is so the film itself isn't based on on an urban legend, so it should be removed from that category.--Rapidconfusion 15:33, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Why does Paul shoot himself - Plot synopsis
I've seen this movie several times, and it never once occurred to me that Paul shot himself for the reason given in this plot outline. - some other views. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.154.198.74 (talk) 03:36, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I was going to ask the same thing. "Paul has a heart attack and shoots himself both to avoid dying from asphyxia and to prevent Cristina from killing Jack." We don't know that Paul has a heart attack. All we know is that he is in a poor physical state at the time the fight with Jack is taking place. Neither do we know why he shoots himself. A doctor had previously warned he would die a nasty death outside the hospital, but that doesn't allow us to conclude that this is the reason he shoots himself. The notion that he does so "to prevent Cristina from killing Jack" is even more far-fetched. Jimmy Fleischer (talk) 15:46, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Benicio del Toro
why is he always shown as the fourth in the listing of the actors? he, penn and watts played the protagonists, danny huston had near to nothing screen time.77.1.170.40 (talk) 00:13, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
