It did succumb to melodrama (unlike BbM) and we could see the ending coming from a mile away, but it eventually won me over. I even shed a few tears a couple of times. I'm very glad I saw it.
I also found a great interview with the director which made me appreciate the film even more:

Thanks, Gil. This is long, but excellent and very intelligent interview that added to my understanding of the film. Now I really want to see it again.

Actually, that style of lighting where the light source is on the side so that a triangle of light forms on the shadow side of the face is called Rembrandt Lighting. So you all are right on target.
