And when it happens...

Of course this is the kind of film where they have a fight and it starts raining and then she proposes and then they kiss and she doesn’t even care that she’s getting all wet and now there’s a rainbow!

at least I now know where this comes from

This is like the cheesiest crap EVER!lol he’s the only good thing in this stupid movie. 

Don’t take this as a criticism of you not liking the movie. I get that it’s not everyone’s cuppa ^^ BUT. I have to say I think all the TREMENDOUS cheesiness is quite intelligently done because the whole thing is told from her perspective. And this is how she seels herself and her life. She dreams her life away like those cheesy romances she writes and thinks she can have the same kind of epic and completely unrealistic kitsch.

This scene as well as the one with the ridiculous green screen just reflect that. It’s not meant to be serious in a way that it shows this is REALLY what happend, but this is how she perceived it and how she wanted it to be. It’s basically a parody on cheesy romances. A very tragic parody. I could point out more examples as to why I think it’s really well done, but you’re still watching so I don’t want to spoil ^^

Just try to see it as that: as a reflection of her deluded mind. Then you might enjoy the movie a bit more because it’ll start to make sense.

Ehhhh, I don’t know. I think it needs a bit more of a wink to the camera, if that’s what it’s really trying to do - you know, like a Baz Luhrmann kind of acknowledgement that this is all a bit make-believe. But it falls just short of that, I think, and fails to move from hysterical to tongue-in-cheek. Some kind of acknowledgement of the real world might have helped in this, I suppose. I guess I’m just disappointed, because it’s a fantastic cast and it looks just beautiful, but it’s so cliched and rather heavy-handed and never quite hits the mark, or figures out exactly what it wants to be. 

On another note - are the orchestra really playing ‘Once Upon a Dream’ from Sleeping Beauty in that scene where they meet for the first time?
