just watched THE NOTEBOOK a couple of days ago. have to say that it's the purist and best love story. after all these i've been through, this is the first story that can bring out my tears again. i thought i wouldn't shed no single bit of tears to any stupid love stories. but frankly, this really moved me deeply.

then here came THE FREEBIE tonight. a couple becomes so impassionate towards each other. after all they have all the best communication and love for a good 7-year. it seems to be a bit unrealistic, yet very possible. if you were too frank and honest and open to your honey, would it end up just like this?

during watching the movie i was thinking was it because the director cut out something in real life that made all the plots reasonable? then when it came to the end, the pregnant announcing scene did stroke me a bit. maybe that is something generally will happen in real life that's omitted in the movie. baby is the crucial element to prolong love between couples, necessarily.

or does the couple have too much spare time, no children, no career, no financial/political/living difficulties... that make them think too much out of some weird fucked up line?

despite of the HYPOTHETICALLY SPEAKING plot in the movie, what the director surely wants to show us is the HYPOTHETICALLY happened part. what seemed to be so firm could be gone so easily. suspicions, concealing, lies...all came after the originally-agreed-by-both plan, and finally the relationship has the least possibility to just get talked and fade away like nothing ever happened.

sorry to be negative and pessimistic, but i merely believe that nobody can be trusted, even oneself. because we are living things and we CHANGE from time to time.

so what's it between THE NOTEBOOK and THE FREEBIE? that is love DOES exist and it's such a wonderful thing. yet love DOES fade at some point out of certain reasons, depends on individuals. if you are lucky enough to experience the perfect love, go for it. if shit happens, cry for a whole bunch then get hollow or put yourself in the market again. after all, this is life. feel regret for the things you didn't do but not the things you did. i can't say enjoy every moment of your life, but me, i try my best to live every single bit of it and experience it the most.

pro or con. just write some feelings brought by the movie and not pretty much a real review for it, sorry.

我也不知道為什么給這部寫，只是有觸動(dòng)
片頭是輕快的甜蜜的愛(ài)情場(chǎng)景，

但是愛(ài)情是有保質(zhì)期的，有些過(guò)期了，兩個(gè)人就散了；
有些升華了，變成了親情，卻暫時(shí)失去激情。人是貪婪的充滿欲望的，這樣沉悶并不是那么容易欣然接受的。
女性其實(shí)很敏感，畢竟從古至今為悅己者容這些麻煩事情都是她們來(lái)行動(dòng)的，但是她們也是容易對(duì)感情波動(dòng)的，當(dāng)這樣各自尋求新激情游戲提出的開(kāi)始，其實(shí)女性就已經(jīng)站在失敗的立場(chǎng)上了。
因?yàn)椴还茉趺礃有湃蔚幕A(chǔ)一旦被打破就很難恢復(fù)，猜忌是難免的，更難的是在今后對(duì)潛在背叛不能自己的預(yù)測(cè)。

恩好在兩個(gè)人的游戲都沒(méi)有通關(guān)，崩潰的現(xiàn)實(shí)還有回轉(zhuǎn)的余地。
二人世界重新建立。

所以玩不起，就絕對(duì)不要參與這樣容易過(guò)界的游戲。如果你不小心通關(guān)了，也絕對(duì)不要承認(rèn)通關(guān)，必須撒謊。

其實(shí)婚姻是個(gè)大陷阱，對(duì)不對(duì)……
