otebook (2004): This movie will make you wonder about things, you have never wondered about. Such as love at first sight, or love after someone is long gone out of your life. This movie has the power to make you foresee your future with the mate you have right now. It has the right material, to make you think and question yourself as to the person you are dating right at this moment, are they for life, will they be there for you when you have Alzheimer’s, when you become forgetful of your own past, will they be there for you to read your own past to you, to make you remember how wonderful your past was, and how bless you have been to have such a loving companion by your side. This movie will make you dream, you had someone right now in your life that could love you unconditionally and thoroughly like Noah loved Allie.
ic (1997): When you hear titanic you think disaster, catastrophe, and perilous fall of a ship. Well, you should also think of Leonardo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet, how they captured the characters they played so beautifully in this true story. This story is very well known by most Americans but the love story they added on to it made it even more popular. This love story made me wish I was already grown, because when I first saw it, I was so young and I could not wait to fall in love, and get someone to love me to the point to put their lives in immediate danger in order to save me, so unselfishly. This story made me think a lot about how soon one can fall in love but could still last a lifetime. This movie made me cry so much, that I could not even talk about it without sobbing. I was in a very sad mood for days after watching it for the first time. I don’t know about you but this movie is the ultimate love story of our time.Release Date: 19 December 1997
Vanill
a sky (2001): Vanilla Sky is one of those movies that took me at least three trials to finally understand it and when I did; it made me uneasy for days. I will tell you why in a minute.

He was bound to make one of them a jilted one. Cameron Diaz plays the character of the jilted ex girlfriend who could not stand to see David with anyon
e else but her, so she planned to kill herself and David in a car crash which did not go her way. David survives the accident with minor problems his face is forever disfigured though. What a pretty boy to do! His face was his reputation, his pride, his passport. So, he stayed home most of the time after the accident. Prior to the days leading to the accident he had met this pretty aspiring dancer played by Penelope Cruz, to whom he talked and had a one night stand with, but there was something about her. He wanted more, he was taken by her. But since the accident, he grew aloof, and was no longer the charismatic pretty boy anymore, so she disappeared out of his life just like that. Sometimes, you may think you can escape your life, it will still be happening in your mind. Either you like or not. As a result, he goes to see a doctor after he had seen so many commercials about their reconstructive surgery, he had all the money in the world, all he wanted was a surgeon that could tell him yes, they could fix his face. So, he did find that surgeon, and that company but the price he had to pay had nothing to do with money. It was with his memories. It made me uneasy because I can only imagine to think I may be living right now, but all that I do on a daily basis, all the people that I interact with and became friends with are not real; That I asked a doctor to put them in my mind and not to let me be aware of it. Well, that shook me a little and I am sure if you see it my way, it could do the same thing to you.Enjoy them and if you have any inputs, any questions do not hesitate to comment back...and remember the best of love movies are movies that are so captivating that they're stuck with us for life.
