Nights in Rondanthe

I guess besides "The Notebook" from Nicholas Sparks, "Nights in Rondanthe" is another heart warming and touching love story. No doubt it may be an excellent chick flick, guys should also experience or at least understand what your love ones (i.e. girlfriend, wife) are going through a intense relationship. The ending of the story was rather different from the novel written by the author.

Rondate is actually a real place and it is what it is shown in the movies. However, because of the natural disaster i.e. storm, this bed and breakfast is closed until further notice.

The storyline is simple but the gist of it really entails what real love is really like or rather what is to be expected when you are deeply in love. Diane Lane is just a great actress. Her acting is just fabulous!I love the tagline "It's never too late to have a second chance". This is so true. People makes wrong decision sometimes, and I believe mistakes make people become stronger. If you are always afraid to venture, you will never experience what "Life" is really like.

I really feel for Adrienne (Diane's character). However, it is so stereotypical that the husband would normally cheat with the sexy and young secretary in the office!

Dr. Paul Flanner (Richard Gere's character) is a workaholic and his divorce is due to the negligence of the family. Well, I guess if you are a medical doctor of the ER, then...sometimes' that can't be helped.

But again, it is always when you lose something or someone then you realize the value of it. Everyday is a learning experience and hey, life is not a bed of roses!

さすがなラブストーリ！ニコラス・スパークの最高作品です。この恋話は前の作品と違ってちょっと大人向きの物語です。夫婦って恋人とちょっと違って、予想以外の重たい責任感があるんです。特に子供が居る場合、離婚とか分かれるとかって言う言葉は簡単に言うものではありません。でも、最悪の場合、本当に無理だったら、自分と子供の幸せを考えると、分かれる方法が一番かも知りません。無理して我慢必要はありません。

この映画は結婚や人間の生き方を中心しています。アンドリアンは旦那さんの浮気の原因で離婚を提案した。パールは働き者で自分の家族を見捨てた。けど、人生ってミスが多いほど、次のステップがもっとうまく行く方法かも知りません。
もちろん、自分でわざわざ起こすミスではなく、目的はそのミスは私達を何を教えてくれたことです。

ダエン・レインは相変わらず最高な女優さんです。

失恋や大切なものを失った時、この映画を見ると、自分がもっともっと強くなると思います。
