Cap ou pas cap?



Rarely am I disappointed in foreign films. They are entirely different than what I’ve been conditioned to expect. This "Romantic comedy" is superb. The plot doesn't follow the run of the mill boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl. I like that it really plays up the idea that people who are in love play games. They say one thing and mean another. They're confused and often in the course of their arrival at the decision to be with their "beloved" cause unimaginable anguish to all involved. The games are all consuming and soon it becomes nothing more than a desire to win. Humans we're awful! we are the scum of the scum. give us a taste of power, even when it comes to emotions, and we aim to recreate that control all the time. we hurt those we love the most and almost always expect that they'll endure. It's everywhere. Teenagers screaming at fathers, Mothers at their kids, husbands at wives. “All in the name of love”. Even terrorists against their own governments and the killings of hundreds of country men. But “what more in the name of love?”

Such a powerful word, defined differently to each of us.

Are pain, anger, sabotage, confusion, jealousy and animosity love's necessary evil?
