err...not sure if it qualifies in the same category as those, but i found the porch scene in the village, between bryce howard and joaquin phoenix, very romantic. bryce is brilliant in that movie, i crush real bad every time i watch it. shame the movie is so flawed

raging bull, because i have seen people who tear themselves apart and alienate themselves from all meaningful relationships as it is simply within their nature. and of course LiT, which is why i'm here in the first place

chungking express and in the mood for love. chungking express for the theme of fate bringing lonely people together and finding your soulmate amongst all the people you meet every day. in the mood for love for the theme of unrequited love, for one reason or another. both brilliant movies, both stron...

whoops. forgot to log in

thanks a lot, Ith. i'm sure with your advice i'll get over her eventually. 52fm described you as being wise and it's certainly been shown to be true. hope you're having a good day after your cranky morning

i've been waiting all yr for this day. i got my exam results today, and i got what i wanted. so i'm off to university to start a new life. how ironic that of all days in the yr my 'charlotte' chooses today to decide our friendship is no longer important. furthermore, i cant pinpoint the reason why i...

well said

another thing...how would one judge the analytical and emotional views of an extreme individual eg. a terrorist? how much of what they believe is ingrained, or conditioned? does that count as the emotional side overwhelming the logical, or does the fact they probably believe in what they are doing c...

Pi is a film by darren aronofsky, director of requiem for a dream. i havnt seen it yet tho, so if you want to know what it is about i'm not the person to ask. but i've heard it is very good, and obviously ithildriel and 52FM have good taste in movies (eternal sunshine and magnolia are great movies a...

yup, i would agree it is a left/right brain thing. but i think there must be a framework of rules and concepts of right and wrong/good and bad for analysis to take place. for example, science itself concerns finding the discrete rules that govern our universe and its existence. within the boundaries...

ok, put simply, i think we learn what is logical, but the emotional side is purely us and our desires. how we learn it and how responsive we are to it determines how strong the logical side is in proportion to the emotional side. as babies, we do not think logically of consequences, but as we get ol...

i havnt seen the film Pi yet, so i cannot reference that, but i think it depends on what you mean by the term 'logic'. obviously the emotional side is the direction of your own impulses, my take on the logical side is it is the aspect of your subconcious that conforms to society's view of what is ri...

amazing story. i have personally seen how easy it is for people to look the other way in these types of situations so it is an incredibly brave and loving action that you took, and when one leaves this plane of existence, they can ask for nothing more than to have those they love around them. thank ...

i found out that she thinks of me as 'just good mates' from a reliable friend of mine. it was an actual record of a conversation they had, so it's true. furthermore, there was a major film event weekend we were going to attend together (with others present), but she cancelled, and trying to get her ...

thank you very much for the advice and support, ithildriel. you raised several points i had never realised and opened up an option i am seriously considering. i will be moving away to university in a few weeks, on the other side of the UK, and i do not plan to return home much. and in those yrs we w...

yes, but i'm almost certain she doesn't. but she is such a guarded and conservative individual i am never sure. every so often she can do or say something that completely throws me off guard, and when surrounded by (male) friends she comes to me, even when we did not know each other that well. she i...

not so much a moment, more a period of alienation and loneliness while abroad followed by an intense desire for another who you can communicate and connect with. theres a girl i always liked, and when being abroad together i found myself immensely attracted to her. even little things like phonecalls...

crudely forcing my way in, i just had to comment on this particular thread as it is one i can relate to completely at this moment. i hope you're feeling better sw25 (i realise its been a while since the thread was started, so hopefully that's a resounding yes), i found that surrounding myself with f...

i'm 19, male, live in the uk, i went through my own lost in translation relationship last yr, and subsequently rediscovered the movie. having detailed seemingly every aspect of it on the LiT imdb boards, i was referred here. and having read some threads, it's certainly heartening to find myself amon...

i experienced something very similar, albeit with a girl i already knew rather than with a stranger. she is very beautiful (the truth), and also the type of girl who is very playful, unfortunately because of this i was never sure if she felt the same way about me, as she has a way of saying and doin...
