So, tonight my mom and I went to see this movie starring John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale, "Serendipity." Can I just say that I love the word serendipity. Defined as a "fortunate accident," what a beautiful word to describe such an interesting concept. Incidentally, my other favorite word, limerance, is a scientific term for "puppy love." That feeling you get when you first meet someone and you can't get enough of them, you can't eat and you can't sleep, you just constantly think about them. I tried naming a puppy of mine "Limerance," but it wasn't very practical. Sorry, I'm a little off the course of my story now... So, this movie was really cute, and super romantic. Two people being brought together by fate over seven year's time, blah, blah. A million movies are about this same thing, and I still get excited about every one of them. My favorite movie scene is from "Sleepless in Seattle." Meg Ryan is gushing over a scene in an old black and white movie, lamenting why she can never fall in love like that and says, "I want to be in love." And Rosie O'Donnell responds, "You don't want to be in love. You want to be in love in a movie." In my opinion, whether or not "movie romance" is real is not the point. The point is, we can all strive for it...  | private feedback | |
