If only every man can care sooooo much for his lady, with her and without her!

Rating: Null/10 (28 April 2014)

To be very frank, I did hear about this movie quite a lot in my college days, with almost all the girls going gaga about the story and the portrayal of the hero's thoughtfulness. I haven't read the novel but I guess my tryst with this tale had to wait until 2014. I am absolutely thrilled to see a love story being played with such humor surrounding it. Gerard Butler plays the Irishman with natural ease and Hillary Swank follows up on her part by being that girl in love, hung over by the death of her husband and yet lively enough to do everything that he asks of her from the afterlife. Planning ahead for all the letters being sent at the right time and how they are encountered seems a little too much drama but ohh well it was very believable and doable too.. all it needed was the feeling of caring for someone beyond the time when they can possibly care for you. Simple words to read but not so simple to adapt in reality. The open mindedness of Hillary's character is very appreciably put forward and she is willing to go follow the path of mutual happiness that her deceased husband has planned for her. Best scene... The first walk together! Priceless!!!
