Alex and Rosie have been best friends since
they were five. They played, went to school, kept company and celebrated
birthday all the time. They even knew each other with an eye contact or a
smile. Although they are not in a relationship, it is clearly that no one can
replace each other in their mind.
But speak to LOVE, Alex and Rosie don’t
know how to deal with it. Like on Rosie’s 18th birthday, they missed
and broke up some rule. As a result, fate changed, they had their own new life
and became not so close.
However, love will find their way. They
kept connecting in some way though many obstacles stopped them. Finally, they
realized that they indeed love each other and don’t want to let it go. After 12
years, they get together and cherish each other forever.

“I will always truly completely love you.”
What kind of love can drive people crazy?
What kind of person can be worthy of being waited for a whole life?
For the world you are just one person; for
the one, you are the world. We are all eager to find the one that can
understand us most, who can see our inner beauty, and who can tolerate all little
faults in our lives. But what if we miss the right one all the time just as
Rosie and Alex did? Life is a mix of choices, in which choosing this one means
losing the others. We all have to make our own choices, and be responsible to
ourselves. It not only applies to love, but every phase in our life. Sometimes
we have to risk something in order to achieve our goal.
To me, the best character of Rosie is to
never give up. No matter what happens to her, she always adjusts herself to the
situation and looks at it in a different perspective. She’s never defeated by
any obstacle in front of her and never stops pursuing her dreams however far it
is.
“Love, Rosie” is not only a romantic movie
that can easily make you cry and laugh, and occupy your mind for weeks after
watching it; it teaches us to cherish what you have and fearlessly pursue our
dreams.

The songs in the
movie “Love, Rosie” was great. For
example, “High Hopes”, “Start Again”, “Take me back to the start”, “Love me like you do”, “Alone Again”, and “Use Somebody”. I love “Use Somebody” the most, because I think it was the perfect song
to interpret the movie. Though many people love me, they are not you. Everyone
in the world is all looking for someone to love himself/herself, and no matter
how far we go, we will find the right one. It is never too late to fall for a
mate.

“I like just as you are.”
Sometimes you don't need to change what you
are to satisfy others, to meet the social standard for “beauty” or “perfect”,
there will be the one to appreciate what is inside of you and what you really
are. Maybe to the world you are just one person, but to that particular one
person you can be the world.
Crying for those who underestimate us is a
waste of time. We can't be defeated by those who hurt our hearts and don't care
about it at all. The best thing to give them back is to be a better person for
our own sake. We all have to love ourselves more before giving love to someone
else.
The most interesting thing about this movie
is that Bridget Johns met the same Mr. Darcy in the classical romantic movie Pride
and Prejudice and it’s the modern version of it. The pride of Mr. Darcy makes
the girl (both Bridget in this movie and Elizabeth in Pride and Prejudice) have
prejudice upon him, and in the end they can’t help but love each other.
It’s nearly impossible to have such a
gentleman in the reality to fall in love with such an ordinary girl who doesn’t
have a perfect body and always does some silly things like us. However, what is
good about watching movie is to indulge ourselves in the perfect romance!

1.Out of Reach-Gabrielle
Gabrielle’s voice is a little husky, just
like classic Rhythm and Blues. The atmosphere of this song is calm, and can
somehow ease your mood. People said “Out of Reach” is one of the classic love songs of love
movies.
2.Killin’ Kind-Lynne Shelby
This song is amazing. Lynne Shelby is a great singer with a great voice. I felt
like see the beautiful firework in the night sky when I heard this song. By the
way, the MV of this song is filled with “blue”.
3.Love-Rosey
The style of this song is really cool. Rosey sang straightly and freely in a low soft
way, and made this song a little gloomy.
This song is a classic jazz music. You will
have a picture of all the celebrities are chatting in the banquet hall when you
are hearing this song.
7.All By Myself-Jamie O’Neal
This song has many versions. I really enjoy
the way Jamie O’Neal sang. To
be honest, All By Myselfis the only song I remembered I have had
heard in the movie. (I forgot others because I watched the movie with
concentrated attention.) This song is really powerful and has strong appealing.
8.Just Perfect-Tracy Bonham
The song is soft and tender, with a
sympathetic mood.
9.Someone Like
You -DinaCarroll
This song is fascinating. DinaCarroll is good at putting her whole heart into her
voice and touching our souls.
10.It’s Raining Man-Geri Halliwell
This song is really fervent, like having a
parade.
11.Stop,Look,Listen(To Your Heart)-Diana Rose & Marvin Gaye
Listening to this song is just like being
transported back to the past. This song is interesting and lovely, make me
think of the pure time I had.
12.I’m Every Woman-Chaka Khan
The song is resounding and full of
confidence.
13.Pretender Got My Heart-Alisha’s Attic
Like a ghost closing you with little paces,
the style of this song is bizarre, and in the background of the song, you can
hear someone is talking in a rustling voice.
