Surreal but nice



“I’d have to go away today, but I wonder if I didn’t, whether you might let me see you a little or a lot maybe, See if you could like me again.”

"The fame thing isn’t really real. Don’t forget, I am also just a girl , standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her..Bye…"

The time was 3:34 am. There’ll be a long case with Dr.Chong at 8.30 am, but Notting Hill was really good. Worth my time.

I realised I can still have the mood for nice love movies. And this one is a gem, perhaps. It showed how some guys in their clumsy speech can appear so endearingly cute, how girls can say what they do not mean which may unnecessarily hurt, also how some people make moves without thinking of the consequences, causing the death of a much better chance in the future.

(I am beginning to like British humor, and understand why British blokes can be so much cuter than the rest. )

Having said that, one cannot help doubting still the reality of such love tales. Can a lady fall for a man so honestly, so mutually, and so bravely, without the mindless pursuit and persuasion and foolish attempts at impressing the girl from the guy? Why must the original boyfriend in the movie be portrayed as a jerk? Would a major Hollywood star fall in love with an ordinary chap in London?

Surreal story, but nice. Made me think.
