Heart-warming movies:

 While you were sleeping (1995):



A hopelessly romantic Chicago Transit Authority token collector is mistaken for the fiancΓ©e of a coma patient.


I didn't have any high expectations for this movie, I didn't even watch the trailer. It's such a cozy heart-warming film, it's romantic and funny it has a bit of drama alongside some holiday vibes. If you're ever feeling alone sad or blue I highly recommend this movie.



Raising Helen (2004):



After her sister and brother-in-law die in a car accident, a young woman becomes the guardian of their three children.



Again I only saw the movie poster, and I decided to add it to my watch-list. Me and my mom both enjoyed every moment of it, we laughed and we cried and let me tell you, don't look at the rating on rotten tomatoes because they didn't do justice to this film. I loved it and I highly recommend it, grab your herbal tea or your bowl f ice-cream and thank me later. 


Notting Hill (1999):



William Thacker (Hugh Grant) is a London bookstore owner whose humdrum existence is thrown into romantic turmoil when famous American actress Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) appears in his shop. A chance encounter over spilled orange juice leads to a kiss that blossoms into a full-blown affair. As the average bloke and glamorous movie star draw closer and closer together, they struggle to reconcile their radically different lifestyles in the name of love.



I know I'm the last one to watch this movie but again I always stay away from overrated movies but this one is just different. You have no idea how warm this movie is, I loved William's character and I related to him a lot. The song "She" sang by Charles Aznavour will be definetly added to your playlist, it made me feel a lot of sentiments. This movie is worth your time, light up a scented candle and enjoy it.


When Harry met Sally (1989):



Harry and Sally meet when she gives him a ride to New York after they both graduate from the University of Chicago. The film jumps through their lives as they both search for love, but fail, bumping into each other time and time again. Finally a close friendship blooms between them, and they both like having a friend of the opposite sex. But then they are confronted with the problem: "Can a man and a woman be friends, without sex getting in the way?"


This movie speaks for itself as the perfect fall movie, grab a cup of hot coco and a cozy blanket and get ready to hear the famous "I'll have what she's having"line.



 My sister's keeper (2009):



Anna Fitzgerald was conceived via in vitro so that her parents could have a genetic match and donor for their older daughter, Kate who has leukemia. But after years being tested and prodded, Anna decides to take her parents to court herself so that she could be emancipated from them when it comes to anything medical. But her mother refuses to it so the whole thing goes to court. And it nearly tears the family apart.



Such a heart-warming storyline the entire family are there for each other no matter what and I really enjoyed Cameron Diaz's performance in this movie. 


Grap a box of tissues and some herbal tea and start watching.

That's it for the blog today, have a great day!

Lonely...




I wanna thank life for always letting me down





I wanna thank people for always not being there for me




I wanna thank luck for always being my side
And mostly, myself for always being negative as hell.




I have no explanation of why my life is going down hill. No explanation of why it ends bad all the time, horrible days from beguinning to end. 




Opportnities that they're nowhere to be found, or maybe the people you need the most who are always complaining that they have problems too.





It's so ironic, because back in the day, you listened to their problems, tried to help them. You never expected anything back, but at least a hand reaching out to help you.




It's so unfair to give and not to take back , whether it was from luck, people, or even destiny.

My favourite Female Leads in Movies

 Whenever I watch movies I always get influenced by the female leads in those films, I love me some strong female characters that inspire my inner self and push me to do better things in life. In this blog, I'll be listing some of my favourite female leads from movies and why I chose them:

Elle woods:



What I love about Legally Blonde is how Elle Woods proves that women are more than just their looks. Sure, she’s beautiful, girly, loves the color pink, and is into fashion, but she’s also intelligent, hard-working, clever, resourceful, and genuinely kind. She’s strong and she proves herself to everyone who doubts her — from her lame ex-boyfriend to her college professors. Women can be successful and smart as well as feminine and cheerful; they’re not mutually exclusive!



Elizabeth Bennet:



Jane Austen's Elizabeth Bennet—played to perfection by Keira Knightley in the 2005 version of the film—remains compelling no matter how many hundreds of years ago she was written into existence. Unlike her sisters, she doesn't let the introduction of wealthy men like Mr. Darcy (Matthew Macfadyen) automatically wow her. No, she makes them prove their worth. Thanks to her fierce sense of self, loyalty to her family, and wicked-smart retorts, this well-read lady defied what it meant to be a woman in the early 19th century. In a 1813 letter to her sister, Austen even said of her creation, "I must confess that I think her as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." And we wholeheartedly agree.



Little Women:



Five strong women dominate the narrative: the fiery and independent Jo (Saoirse Ronan), the nurturing Meg (Emma Watson), the determined Amy (Florence Pugh), the selfless Beth (Eliza Scanlen) and their guiding force, Marmee (Laura Dern). Written by a woman, adapted to the screen and directed by a woman, “Little Women” is forever a treasure of strength within and among women.




Beatrix; The Bride:



Uma Thurman's tough-as-nails character Beatrix "The Bride" Kiddo has one goal: exacting revenge on the man who shot her in the head. Over the course of the two Kill Bill films, she exhibits unrivaled tenacity and grit (and combat skills) that are nothing short of inspirational. Any situation The Bride finds herself in—including, at one point, being buried alive—she overcomes.



Clarise Starling:



Young FBI trainee Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster, in an Oscar-winning performance) seeks the advice of the brilliant imprisoned serial killer Dr Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins, in an Oscar-winning performance) to help track down a new serial killer. Starling is both strong and vulnerable, using her savvy to manage her interactions with Lecter, determined to solve the puzzle to save another kidnapped girl before it’s too late.


That's it for the blog, have a nice day!
