P.S. I Love You
Caught this movie with a fried. Was a last minute thing really, we didn't really know what to do so we decided to check out the box office and settled on this show in like 3 mins.
As the title will show, this is a chick flick. The show opens with this couple who are so in love with each other, but have their problems to work out, as evidenced by the huge fight at the beginning.
The show then cuts to months later, when the husband (Jerry) dies from a brain tumour and the wife (holly) is devastated. She wallows in her depression, until she receives a birthday cake from her husband on her thirtieth birthday. From then, she starts receiving letters from Jerry, written while he was still alive.
The letters always asks Holly to do something, things that remind her of Jerry but yet slowly making her let go of him.
The show has multiple sob moments. If you're the sort to cry at the movies, do bring a pack of tissues, or grab some serviettes at the counter. The letter deliveries did get kinda lame after the first couple, as in, it doesn't really seem like such a big deal yet it plays a crucial role in the show after all. I'd say it's a kinda sweet lame thing, as in all chick flicks. We know it's lame, but we want to watch it.
Odd thing is, even though Holly is on screen for almost all the screen time, it still feels like we don't know her at all. Probably just me.
