ShakespeaRe-Told: The Taming of the Shrew (2005)
Fantastic
The romance was off beat and Kate was a little strange but it just goes to show that 2 complete opposites can be perfect for each other in every way. They just needed someone to - corny line coming up - Complete them.
This story shows that love can change people for the better and meeting a person who is not like you in the outside world but has exactly the same insecurities and needs on the inside is a rare and beautiful thing.
They should make more dramas like this.
This is one retold Shakespeare story i would watch again and again.
I hope it wasn't just me but i thought Rufus looked remarkably HOT in that skirt.
The Girl Next Door (2004)
What's the Craziest thing you have done lately?!?
In between all the sex crazed antics of the teenage boys there is a nice little love story between Danielle and Matthew.
PLOT: Contains LOTS OF SPOILERS!!
Matthew a 18 year old boy about to graduate suddenly realises he hasn't done anything crazy in his life. So when it comes to writing an entry in his year book he gets stuck, until The girl next door comes around.
Danielle is house sitting for her aunt. Matthew is immediately drawn to danielle so much so that he see's her in her bedroom getting undressed. Dani notices him watching however and that's when the fun begins.
She get's revenge by making him strip in the middle of the neighbour hood. After this though Dani begins to realize she actually likes Matt. So they start to spend a lot of time together and eventually kiss at a party.
But the next day Matt's friend Eli, shows him a tape. It's Dani. In a rather steamy video. He realises that she is a porn star.
So he thinks now he has found this out he might get lucky, so he takes her to a seedy hotel room. Where she finds out that he knows about her past. She leaves.
Matt feels terrible and goes to see her, Her old boyfriend/industry mogul is there and proceeds to tell Matt to get lost.
Dani goes to a 'P' convention where matthew follows her and tells her that she is worth more than all this.
She comes back and they make up.
I won't tell you the rest of the movie because it sort of spoils it.
Lets just say 'Sex education is a hot topic and Dani and Matthew do get their happily ever after in more ways than one'.
And the Craziest thing Matt has done lately? Is worth watching.
Worth the watch if you are a hopeless romantic who can see through all the sex talk.
Babycakes (1989)
The Best romantic Film of the 80's!!!!
When i first began to watch this movie i wasn't sure whether it was going to be any good, i thought Large girl pratically stalking a 'good looking' guy wasn't going to end well but it was absolutely wonderful the first time i watched it i could not stop crying.
It is a symbol for all those woman out there who are not perfect, i'm one of them and when i watched this movie it gave me Hope, it sounds corny but its true. Not all great looking men want fabulous looking woman, ok most do but i don't believe that every guy who has a good looking girl is truely happy. That is what this movie show's, You wish and hope for long enough and maybe one day life will come up good after all.
