I am a hopeless romantic! Which is weird because I am also very rational.
Romantic comedies are like a drug for me, a recreational drug, kinda like marijuana. I don’t have to have it all the time but the high I get when I do is amazing.
I’ve just finished seeing ‘Accidental Husband’ with Uma Thurman, Jeffrey Dean Morgan (whom I love) and Colin Firth and as I always do when I watch Rom-Coms, I cried. I cried harder than I usually do though because it got me thinking, maybe not thinking, more like wishing.
I know movies are a form of escapism and they usually portray our lives as we want them to be not as they are which would suggest that happy endings are not common in our real lives which is why the rom-com as a genre of movies even still exists. This does not stop me however from wanting a happy ending. I want to be delirioulsy in love, so much in love that it sickens me, I want a rom-com happy ending. But is it possible?
