This is one of the most dramatic scenes, in one of the best romantic dramas I've seen. Seth, endearingly played by Nicholas Cage, is an angel, who falls in love with the woman he is entrusted with escorting to the afterlife. She is Maggie, lovely counterpart to Seth, played by Meg Ryan.
The romance between them becomes just as earthly, as it is heavenly, when Seth decides he wants to become human. He must fall literally to earth to become so. He learns soon enough that love and sensuality, along with tragedy and loss, are an inviolably part of the human condition. It's a heartbreak ending, that over time makes life all the more ennobling.
