PS: I always thought it would have been better for her to die there. Anakin not realizing his own strength in his rage kills her and then blames Obi-Wan for bringing her with him. Babies are saved post-mortem.

Honestly I would have preferred that too, however I think Lucas really wanted that whole Please save him, there is still good in him.
Also I have to wonder how redeemable Anakin would have been if he had force choked her and snapped her neck.
In the case of how it was done, Anakin had that moment of rage and then relented and let her go, and Hayden had that one second look of what am I doing.
In the book when Anakin meets up with Padme on Mustafar there were two neat bits. When he ran out to meet her he put on his Anakin mask.
when he looked at her and she was talking about him coming away with her and to leave this behind. In his mind he commented on how small and insignificant she looked.
I loved a part of that scene in the movie. When he comes out to meet her, you see him stride out, he has his hood up, then he lowers the hood and bounds to her and embraces her.
I thought that was well done.
