Just watched a super cute movie called 'Little Manhattan', starring Josh Hutcherson (Gabe) and Charlie Ray (Rosemary Telesco). Gabe is 11 years old. He has fallen in love with his old friend Rosemary and is determined to tell us all about it in a voice-over narration which colours Little Manhattan's every moment. The performance of their 11-year-old star is eloquent enough to speak for itself.
Like he said, "it's not a pretty story about love, but it is just a story about love." In this movie, the kid struggles with this new feeling called love. He realized at the end of the movie that him and her were going on separate ways, and that things might not end they way he wants, but one thing is certain, that Rosemary was his first love.
Poor little kid who has to go through the pain called love. There was a scene of him, in his room, screaming and crying at the same time, screaming "Rosemary Rosemary". It was kind of cheese, but I could totally relate to that feeling of pain. The agony of love. And it's just going to get more painful from there in the future, kid.
I guess that this movie or story, tells about the pain that love might bring, but it also gives you hope after a heartbreak. The idea that you are going to find someone else, that if your loves goes it does not mean the end of the world, to move on, and if things are meant to be, then they are gonna come together eventually. Which makes me feel a little better with myself.
Here are some lines from the movie I liked very much:
"And the next morning, something kind of amazing happened. The sun came out again."
"Love is an ugly, terrible business practiced by fools. It'll trample your heart and leave you bleeding on the floor. And what does it really get you in the end? Nothing but a few incredible memories that you can't ever shake. The truth is, there's gonna be other girls out there. I mean, I hope. But I'm never gonna get another first love. That one is always gonna be her."
"Love isn't about ridiculous little words. Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in sky writing. Love is about going that extra mile even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there."
