A positive tear-jerker

Rating: 10/10 (4 February 2002)

You are saying how can a tear-jerker be positive? It is in a lot of ways. Love is a powerful thing and can do wonders. It is where the nice guy or girl finish first for a change. This also explains how opposite attracts. The story: Landon is popular and Jamie is not. She is plain Jane and moral to boot. She is scorn by some groups which does not discourage her. She changes Landon's look towards her by being who she is. He sees her beauty, outside and in, falls in love. She wishes not for him to fall in love because something is wrong with her. I love the movie. Mandy is very good and beautiful as Jamie. She makes me think of a hometown girl who fits the bill. Being clean and wanting respect of who she is. Shane is good too as well as Daryl Hannah and Peter Coyete.
