I watched Love Actually

Love Actually was one the movies that I always wanted to watch. I came home, and I turned the TV on, and I saw it was Love Actually. My roommate's girlfriend showed up, and she said that she loved the movie. I wanted to watch it because it was one of the favorite movies of Taylor. The whole movie, I was thinking of Taylor. As a Persian, all loves presented in the movie was very superficial, but I could understand it. I could understand the feeling of Taylor watching this movie. I liked the movie because it was exactly the genre that I like.

American's love is very superficial in comparison to the love represented in Persian stories. It was quite obvious in the movie. Everybody got whatever he/she wanted, and got happy because of that. In true love stories, you never get what you want. Even in Titanic that was a kind of love story, the boy got the girl. I think that the whole story could me meaningless to an American if they both died before having sex with each other. It's not true in Persian culture. In fact, it could be more meaningful if they could never be together! I think that Taylor knows it now. It is not love if you can have it.
