Some absolutely funny commercials…

Even from the trailer, one could guess that it’s not a typical romantic movie. However I never found the motivation to go to the theatre to watch it. Tonight I saw it on DVD and to be honest, it was even better than what I thought. Although story seemed to be cliché, and it was, but the storyline wasn’t at all, plus the directing was really smart, thoughtful and kind of sincerely beautiful.

The movie was full of original scenes, unique dialogues and somewhat weird but understandable situations, but what I enjoyed the most was the portrayal of some stupid but subtle mistakes that we all do and we never realized why we have done them yet somehow, and as we’re blaming ourselves, we are almost sure that we will repeat them in the future.

The Narration of the film though, was really annoying and I don’t know why every movie which is made based on a book should have narration! but altogether, and considering super cute Claire Danes’s brilliant and moving performance, it was a pleasant experience.
