It's been five years since Carrie Bradshaw married Mr. Big in "Sex And the City 2," and we're finally getting Sarah Jessica Parker's take on the ending.
"As I recall, the way Carrie and Big married was something she wanted rather than a feeling that life was slipping away and she best settle quickly," the actress tells Yahoo! Style. "I don't think of it as someone diminishing herself by letting a man marry her — it always felt that she had arrived at that on her own."
"The beauty is we can all have lots and lots of opinions about lots of choices Carrie made that we object to or that we stand by," she continues. "If that's Darren's feeling, I think it's interesting!"
Darren, of course, is series creator Darren Star. In an interview he did last month, he said he thought the two should not have ended up together.
"For me, in a way – and I didn't [write] those last episodes – if you're empowering other people to write and produce your show, you can't ... say certain things," he said in a Kindle Singles interview. "I think the show ultimately betrayed what it was about, which was that women don't ultimately find happiness from marriage. Not that they can't. But the show initially was going off script from the romantic comedies that had come before it. That's what had made women so attached."
"At the end, it became a conventional romantic comedy," he concluded. "But unless you're there to write every episode, you're not going to get the ending you want."
Just for the record, we think the movie ended just as it should. Let us know what you think in the comment section below!
