something's gotta give

i love something's gotta give. i hate watching romantic movies, because they seem really un-real. but you know what? the screenplay for something's gotta give is brilliant. i can imagine the screenwriter writing it after she went through it, and then she makes erica barry(the protagonist) go through the same thing she did. there is simply something very raw and real about it, and some amazingly witty yet poignant, sometimes a little sad lines.

i like thiese exchanges between erica and her daughter.

Erica Barry: I'm in love. Ain't it great? Seems like I gotta learn how to that... love-them-and-leave-them stuff, you know?
Marin: Oh mom, I hate this. Now do you get my theory about all this? You gotta self-protect.
Erica Barry: You don't really buy this stuff you say, do you? You don't actually think that you can outsmart getting hurt?

Erica Barry: I let someone in, and I had the time of my life.
Marin: I've never had the time of my life.

Erica Barry: I know, baby. And I say this from the deepest part of my heart. What are you waiting for?

and i basically love erica. diane keaton is such a hoot.

i wanted to write about something, but i'm not quite sure i remember what it is. but today i saw someone who looked like you and i thought maybe i should call out to you. and then on second thought i thought to myself - maybe not. i don't know what i would say to you. in the movie, harry tells erica "i love ya" and erica questions if anything that ends with a "ya" can really be the real thing. i'm open to the idea of different expressions of love, even yours, but different and real are two very different things. i remember loving a quote which i cannot remember in exact precision but love is two universes colliding, or one spending a rocket to the other. (strange, we've been sending stuff to mars, haven't we?) well, today i feel like one of those little planets, or are they really moons?, orbiting around you but then again maybe you aren't so important and we really are two different times in space. one day, i suppose i will forget that your universe exists.
