Kingdom of Heaven:
Orlando Bloom's wife in Kingdom of Heaven probably counts. He goes on Crusade partly out of the hope that his wife who committed suicide (an unforgivable sin) will be let out of Hell and into Heaven because of his actions here on Earth. But at the end of the film he gets to ride off into the sunset with Sibylla, his one true love. Um hello? Do you remember why you went on Crusade originally?

Firstly, Orlando Bloom's character is shown to, once he reaches Jerusalem, spend a night watch mourning his wife and then bury her cross after doing a final prayer for her. Can't he be considered thereby having gotten ''closure'' about his wife's death?

Secondly, IIRC the main reason Balian left his town and went to Jerusalem wasn't so much the death of his wife, but rather that he killed his (half?-)brother and thus was on the run from the authorities, as he was wanted for having committed murder. Plus, that he ran into his long-lost biological father who knighted him (this father himself soon dies though and probably qualifies more for ForgottenFallenFriend than the wife...)

Thirdly, what\'s with the \"Uhm, hello\" about the fact that Balian later finds romance with another woman? As said above, he has finally found proper closure for his wife\'s death, but also plenty of time passes (at least a year, if not several) during the events of the movie, why wouldn\'t / couldn\'t he eventually move on?
