I'm one of those annoying people who try to figure out the plot and the ending very early into the film. In my head I created multiple plots while watching Widows Peak, but kept getting distracted by the great acting in the film. I was initially intrigued by the roster of Joan Plowright, Natasha Richardson and Mia Farrow in the same film. Each could and had carried a film on her own so this ensemble was impressive. Their portrayals of their characters drew me in and made me forget they were acting. I won't give spoilers but freely admit that I was taken by complete surprise at the ending.
