My Best Friend’s Wedding

“Michael… I love you. I’ve loved you for nine years, I’ve just been too arrogant and scared to realize it, and… well, now I’m just scared. So, I realize this comes at a very inopportune time but I really have this gigantic favor to ask of you. Choose me. Marry me. Let me make you happy. Oh, that sounds like three favors, doesn’t it” ~ Julianne Potter

Have you watched the movie My Best Friend’s Wedding? Oh my this film is so classic, 11 years ago to be exact. I never had a chance to watch this movie for years until now. I just finished watching it, my tears are still teary I guess.

The story is so cute. It has a possibility to happen to anyone in reality.

So the story is all about two people, best friends, Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts) and Michael O’Neal (Dermot Mulroney). They’ve been best friends for 9 years and they swore that when they reach the age of 28 and if they have no one, then they will marry each other……Hang-up! I am not good in making reviews of movie, so don’t expect me to write anything about the movie in full details. Heck, I am not writing this for a review! Eventually,  Julianne and Michael, didn’t end up together. Julianne realized that Michael loves his fiance so much.

Okay, so the story is actually funny, a very entertaining film for me. I didn’t cry for the whole movie or even when the time that Julianne told Michael about how she feels, or even when Michael lets her down. What made me cry actually, was when Michael hugged Juliane and said ‘bye’ before leaving for a Honeymoon. OMG, my tears kept of falling! Haha I look like a fool, I just wish somebody saw me.

As I have said, this film has a possibility to happen to anyone in reality. I just don’t want this to happen to me (fingers crossed). I know this will be the most hurtful feelings a person could have. We can’t really predict what will happen in our lives, don’t we? Falling in love with someone you never expect that will come in your life, one day….finding out that you’re not meant for each other….he’s about to marry another person…etc.

I guess it’s true what Kimmy (Cameron Diaz) said “if you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just… Passes you by”. Only if you have the courage and willing to take the risk, then you’re free to say it…you know what I mean?

Btw, I really like the relationship of George and Julliane on the movie. George is gay and he’s fun!
