Angel

On Tuesday June 10, 2008, I went to see the movie Angel.

The movie is about a young girl who was teased at school. She had a very vivid imagination, and always dreamed of living in Paradise House - a mansion in her town.

Angel's dream has always been to become a writer of fiction. And her imagination serves her well in this. However, her mother and aunt try to discourage her from pursuing her dreams.

After many unsuccessful attempts, she finds a publisher who willingly attempts to take a chance on her, and publishes her books. Immediately, she becomes a success. She gets lots of money, and eventually moves into the house that she dreamt that one day she would live in.

The story continues about her meeting her love, a war, and how it affects her writing. Of course, I am not going to describe the movie in detail, because that would spoil/ruin it for you. I wouldn't exactly call this a romantic comedy. There were a few funny moments in it, but I would call this a romance film, possibly a drama film. It was enjoyable. Definitely a chick flick, with your classic tragic chick flick ending.

An enjoyable movie, and I believe a date movie. Although, the main character, Angel, kind of lives her own life and never really deals with reality. I would consider her to be demanding and a diva...

And on the subject of divas and demanding indviduals... My next post.
