5 to 7
Fifteen minutes in to the movie and I am sold.
The characters kept on saying the right things and being in situations I could imagine myself living as well. There are tons of lines I could definitely use and could teach me how to survive this world.
I love everything about it. I would not change anything, especially the ending. It is just too perfect. I mean, that’s reality, you know? That’s the ending we never got to see much often but it’s real and it does happen. There is a huge chance we may never end up with our “perfect” love and I believe that it is only considered perfect because they did not end up together.
Initially, the idea of seeing someone the first time and feeling that strong connection, like what Arielle felt, seems a bit over dramatic to me. But then, I realized that maybe that kind of connection does really exist. It’s just that, I happen not to experience it yet. The possibilities in the world are endless, limitless, just like how love can manifest and transcend it’s way from the abstract to the people.
The last line sealed it for me. It fits perfectly on the way the movie carved my emotions and built a permanent space inside me. I do believe that there are materials we would come across in our lives that would change us in a drastic way whether we like it or not. I came across a few of mine and it felt amazing. The feeling of having read, heard, watched something that you think is made solely for you is like life’s another way of reshaping our minds. It is an opportunity to redefine the things we deem as important, the beliefs we subscribe to, and the things we live by.
