love story

Maybe this title is very familiar to y'all (mostly if you are from my class;) ), I will let you a minute or two to think about it....... ..... .......... AAHHHH, I think you are done. Ok, I will break the silence, it is a movie, and NO, IT IS NOT TAYLOR'S SONG, OK, MOVE ONNN PEOPLE!!

"Love story" from 1970 is a romantic movie, and no, it is not a stereotypical one, ok ?!, I liked it:))). I can't say much about it, I don't want to ruin the moment, just go watch it, I cried and I am being serious, IT IS A GREAT MOVIE. From the story to the cast and the SOUNDTRACK, OMG THE SOUNDTRACK, DON'T EVEN MAKE ME START (I am listening to it as I write).

To give you a background of the reason I watched it when a couple of articles back I told you I don't like this type of movie: in Romania, we do in our class these main themes of literature. The following one for our class is about LOVE, so our teacher suggested it, saying it is going to help out for our lessons. So what did I do? I watched it, of course! And I am not here to brag about this, no no, I wanna discuss the story, the essence of it, the love between the two main characters.

The story between Jenny and Oliver is something, at least for me, magical. The love between is a first meet love, she is older and more mature than him with a touch of slight sarcasm, and he is more naive, trying acting though, but with a drop of romance in him. As I was watching the film, I started realizing the compatibility between them, even though their lives are completely different. I started to see the love I am dreaming about: being there for each other even tho this means sacrificing all you have. And I know you are giving me that look, but hear me out, when you truly love someone you can or cannot sacrifice for them. No one says you have to do it, but if you do so, it means you are ready to build a life with that person,( I'm not going in the other situation when the other doesn't feel the same, this is not my subject for today) but how many of us are willing to sacrifice everything for "the one we love"? If it doesn't work that well at some point, aren't you going to feel sorry for that sacrifice you made?? The interesting thing about this movie, it follows this laitmotiv which appears a couple of times in the movie and quote "Love means never to have to say you're sorry", and on top of that the one who keeps repeating it is Jenny which makes a big sacrifice (if you want to know more, go watch the movie, is on Netflix). What I am trying to say is: we look for "the love" desperately without realizing that maybe we are not ready yet. It's such a life-changing message, for me at least, and is worth understanding.

Again, go give it a try, is on Netflix, a really good movie, and what can I say more, I am in love every time I listen to the soundtrack, like I-. I hope you enjoyed this post, I really enjoyed writing it, and I hope you have a happy and lovely Valentine's Day! Lots of love!!
