Last summer, when my friend bought the book for his sister, I judged it by its cover. I thought it was yet an other "Notebook" but I was wrong. This summer, I somehow I ended up downloading the movie because the title suited me. Having started the movie, I realized it was that last summer book's movie. Even so, I felt like I should go on with it, and so I did to see how it'll turn out. I can only say I'm ashamed of my passed judgment based on arrogance and ignorance."The Fault in Our Stars" is one of the things in life that's intensely beautiful enough to move me. What I admire most about this story is it being so realistic. You don't see cheesy idealistic events or plans going on through the plot. For instance, when Hazel's on the stairs, she doesn't play the typical damsel in distress, she gathers herself and believes she can do it. (Spoiler) Van Houten is considered to be Hazel's fascination subject due to his work. She loves his work and automatically loves the author as well. (Huge Spoiler) When she meets him in person, she learns he's not as idealistic as she thought he was (or equally idealistic as his work). (Spoiler) I like Gus's quote, "You're a shitty person, but a good writer." All in all, I appreciate this movie very much.
