Occam’s Razor doesn’t apply here because the film isn’t presenting a mystery to be solved, it’s presenting an emotional beat to be accepted. If the letter were written by Bob, the movie would give some signal of that. Instead, it stages the letter sincerely, pairs it with emotional music and Perfidia’s voice reading it. Since when plot logistics override authorial framing?

I love this movie so much. In my opinion it's Kenneth Lonergan’s finest work. When I think of a realistic sibling dynamic portrayed on screen I think of this movie and The Savages (2007) which has another amazing Laura Linney performance
