I am in such an amazing mood right now. I feel like no-one can bring me down. I have just seen 'PS I Love You' in the cinema and it has made me feel so... i'm not sure what the right word is but i'll use positive. I feel very happy and content. The film was basically about love and how one person can change your life and make you feel so special and happy. 'PS I Love You' has so many wise messages about love and about life that it really does open your eyes to what is happening in your life -  if that sort of thing affects you.  I think I changed within the whole 2 hours of that film. I need to take my time growing up and cherish moments. I always say that and never really mean it but this time I do. If you haven't already seen 'PS I Love You' then I would highly recommend you get a ticket for its next screening. If it doesn't have a similar affect on you than it did on me or it doesn't at least make a tear run down your cheek then I apologize for making you see it. It really moved me. I'm sure that director Richard LaGravenese will be pleased to know that his film has made a mark on someone's life, that he will leave something behind him that has changed the life of another person. I think I might delete my Bebo and MySpace profiles - they're making me someone i'm not. A bit like my friends, bless them, they don't mean any harm, they just don't see life the way I do. If you have read this then please leave me a comment, even if you haven't seen the film and you have no idea what i'm talking about. It's just nice to know that someone took the time to read this.

For my Christmas, amongst the pile of DVD's i somehow managed to receive was the film 'Bobby'. I watched the film yesterday and I thoroughly loved it - i didn't think I would enjoy it as it wasn't one of those films that everyone talks about or is on any of the 'films to see before you die list' but with a cast of highly-respected actors and actresses, it has found its way to the top of my 'all-time favourite films list'. It follows the lives of 22 people who were in the Ambassador Hotel, LA on the 5th June 1968 - the day and place where Robert F. Kennedy was shot. It shows how each one of these people are affected by the events of that day and how it has changed their lives. I thought the story, script and acting was built to perfection in such a way that the audience was completely drawn in to the story and the lives of these people. My heart sank when I learnt that the film had only been given four stars by most of the biggest film-raters in the country. What had these people been watching? The actors and actresses in the film are some of the most  respected and dedicated people in the business. Anthony Hopkins, Helen Hunt, Lindsay Lohan, William H. Macy, Demi Moore, Sharon Stone and Eilijah Wood are to name but a few.
