Cupid, bow and arrows :)
14th february....valentine's day. This is the day which will be for some, a memorable and romantic day, OR for people like me ...just a normal day.:)Anyway, I have just watched "The Holiday" romantic comedy /movie recently. A good movie I reckon. More realistic touch yet it has a happy ending. Its theme is about LOVE...a bit similar to "My Best Friend's Wedding" movie (starred by Julia Roberts).
The movie opens up wt a wonderful introduction. Here's the extract & some of the quotations (Iris's point of view about love):
"I have found almost everything written about love to be true. Shakespeare said, 'Journeys end in love of meeting'.yada yadaaaa......But I am more willing to believe Shakespeare had about its sheer power to alter and define our lives. 'Love is blind'....this I noted to be true. For some, quite inexplicably, not fates. For others, love is simply lost. But of course, love could be found.. even for just a moment. AND there's another kind of love. Cruelest kind. The one that always kills its victims........How about those who fall in love alone? The victims of the one sided effects, cursed of the loved ones, the unloved ones, the walking wounded........"-The Holiday movie-
It(extract above) might not be accurate as I do not have a good memory. But well...the movie's opening (text above) presents a realistic and accurate definition of love. haaha I am applying my English 121G :reading, writing, texts skills. Analysing the style of language presented.=)
So, which kind of love have you experienced before?
