Three Impact-full Movie's of 2013- From my perspective

3-Now Is Good: Starring Dakota Fanning as a 17 year old gal that has cancer, decides to quit chemo and is only given about 6-9 months to live. The doctor encourages her to do anything on her bucket list asap. ——I usually just stay away from terminally ill movies because I don’t wanna go through it knowing I have to deal with their death at the end. But that movie…oh man…it really shouted in your face “STOP BEING AFRAID TO LIVE, YOU STILL HAVE TIME, GO LIVE!”

2-The First Time: Starring Dylan O’Brien and Britt Robertson as two high-schoolers, who meet at a party and become fast-ish friends. They both have people they’re into— yet THEY have this amazing chemistry that they just can’t escape. They also are struggling with figuring out the value of virginity and sex. It sounds so cliche’ and surface…but this movie was so…deep and realistic about relationships, sex, chemistry, and reality. Even though the movies time span is only over a weekend, with how deep the characters get, how real, it feels like weeks, even months to me. They really got to KNOW each other. The small details that make up the other person. I adore that movie so much.

1-Warm Bodies: Starring Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer. Its post apocalypse times. There is a huge wall splitting the city up, one side is the zombies and the other side the “still living”. In a synopsis there’s a group of the “still living” who go into the zombie infested areas to retrieve necessities. Long synopsis short, the “main zombie guy” has slight human thoughts left in him. He looks into “the main girls” eyes and something sparks in him. He decides NOT to eat her (haha!) and brings her to stay with him for a few days. All he can do is grunt and make little movements. He’s a collector of music and and random objects. The more time he spends with her, the more beats his heart takes, and little by little he starts to become more human. Near the end of the movie the girl tries to convince her dad that “R” (the zombie) is almost fully human again and her dad, not believing her, shoots him and he starts bleeding. And then her dad realizes what she says is true. Because he was BLEEDING and feeling PAIN it meant he was ALIVE again. Not dead. It was quite the riveting movie. It just reminded me how..in order for us to be alive…we need to constantly be feeling some sort of pain from time to time.

A great quote from Warm Bodies:

“I want life and in all its stupid sticky rawness.”
― Isaac Marion, Warm Bodies
