Question: After Kim kisses Edward good-bye in their final moment together, Kim runs away but you can see Edward taking a step forward while looking at her run. Why did he suddenly stop himself?

Answer: Because wanted to go with her, but they both realised it could never work out, like the story of Beauty and the Beast, except Edward couldn't turn into a handsome prince.

My brief fantasy is that Kim and Edward could hide their relationship until the "hype" died down, then move far away and find a doctor to "help" Edward - give him prosthetic hands. Mostly for disguise; not to "fix" him. However, the ending of the movie suggests that he does not age, so there would still be a problem when Kim grew older and died.

Answer: There's no definitive answer and any explanation is open to interpretation. It may simply have been an involuntary reflex, wanting to follow Kim but knowing he cannot and then stops himself.
