Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
taliahebert It's not wonder why the novels and the films written by perhaps one of the greatest romance novelists in history, are so popular. This film, particularly, explores genuine themes of love and death, presenting the idea that love is worth fighting for. Using mise-en-scene, visual elements within the camera's frame focuses on telling the story, evoking sensory emotions through common human feelings and experiences. There are noticeable melodramatic clichés following the irony of rich, reputative girl falls for poor, hardworking boy - both from opposite ends of the social spectrum. Alongside the difficulty and distress of Allie's parents' disapproval, tearing the two apart, you really admire the sentimentality of the story, especially as Noah contests for Allie throughout most of the storyline. The two reignite their incessant, passionate love following Allie's engagement with another man. The seamless weaving of the elderly man and woman in the present with Noah and Allie's connection in the past, makes their romance even more classic. It is evident that Ryan Gosling (Noah) and Rachel McAdams (Allison "Allie") have a strong connection, thus consistently providing the viewers with realistic aspect of love; including the positives and negatives. The main actors, Gosling and McAdams, perceive their characters very well, emotionally and physically throughout the film. This story isn't just narrow and straightforward, there are twists and ultimatums, thus making the story even more meaningful and engaging. Watching this film never fails to provide the audience with an exploding mixture of emotions.
zpritie Absolutely one of the sweetest and most romantic movies I have ever seen. Normally romance is not my favorite kind of movies, but this one really hit me.
