tears are not my entire basis for voting a movie a good one, but it sure does matter a lot. there are certain movies which make me cry while laughing or laugh while crying...and at the end of 99 minutes, they make me feel good.
that's just what "letters to Juliet" made me feel today.
it has been a long time since i've shed real tears on a movie. the last time i've felt as close to this one was when i saw "marley & me". but that's beside the point.
it's a nice feeling to watch those characters search for their soulmate, even after 50 years of being separated. it's very moving to see that they still feel so deeply in love with each other and that love makes them young again. and it is very encouraging to see the courage that those characters intake just to see for themselves if, truly, their one true love still exists.
however there are also those characters who need not wait for another 50 years. there are people who have found their soulmate but refuse to admit to the other person and clearly to themselves what they feel. these are the people who would go on with their lives and after sometime ask themselves, what if?
i can clearly see myself as one of those people who would look back and ask, what if? i am not that courageous. but if one of these days, i would open my eyes and clearly see who my soulmate is, i would definitely gather all my courage to tell that person how i feel. it doesn't matter how he feels towards me. well, on the second thought, it does matter. because if he loves me too, then, all the missing pieces in my life will fall back into place. but if he doesn't, it will hurt me terribly but at least, i did my part and when the time comes when i look back, i wouldn't have to ask, what if?
