Wicker Park

Just finished watching two movies, two actresses who appeared in both movies, and apparently (after watching the 3 n the original movie of the 2 one) hollywood also makes translation movies.

The first movie I watched today was Troy. Quite good, an epic one; just look at the duration. Brad Pitt really had a killer body, not like Mr. Universe, but his body was well toned. His muscles weren’t too big, but well defined. Damnnnn…. I envy him…lol

The two actresses that I was talking about were Diane Kruger and Rose Byrne. Diane also had a great body. Overall, Troy was a good movie.

The second one was Wicker Park. When I read the lines at the beginning of the movie I was intrigued coz it said that the movie was based on “L’Appartment” screenplay. I remember that it was quite old movie starred by (the lovely) Monica Belucci and her husband in real life, Vincet Cassel. At first I had to try hard to understand the plot, but after half an hour I got the whole topic. The main idea was Alexis (played by Rose Byrne, aka Briseis in Troy) who fell in love with Matthew (Josh Harnett), but Mathhew fell in love at first sight to Alexis’ friend, Lisa (played Diane Kruger, aka Helen in Troy). Alexis did everything to separate them both, but like most of Hollywood movies, it ends happily. After watching
Wicker Park, I watched L’Appartment and it was the same. Even the main character’s name was the same, Lisa. But the ending was different and Monica Belucci was far more beautiful than Diane Kruger (at least according to me). Actually European movies are good, some of them are excellent, but I think the main reason why they aren’t so popular is because of the language. Yeah, English is universal language. I use it to write my blog…hahahaha. But anyway, I like Wicker Park better than Troy. The plot was more interesting. And at the ending scene, Coldplay song’s The Scientist was played, a very good one…one of my fav….Now I need to take some nap….

Coldplay - The Scientist

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
Ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start

Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads only science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh, take me back to the start

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start

Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going back to the start...
