Extremely motivating

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2009)

Every one has their movies they absolutely love. It may not be spectacular, but for some reason every time you see it you have to watch it no matter what you're doing. That is absolutely this movie for me.
I must admit that when this movie first came out I found it difficult to get into the story, and just never took the time. Then came Starz and they're tendency to run movies over and over again, and finally I sat down and watched it. I mean, I REALLY watched it, and then I was absolutely blown away. Iris's character was so incredibly easy to relate to, especially when you've experienced what she's going through: being in love with someone who doesn't love you back.
My favorite part in the movie is when Arthur tells Iris that she needs to be the leading lady in her own story, but that's not the only point of inspiration in the story!
This movie is extremely motivating for women, and any woman trying to get over a man seriously needs to watch it. It's not necessarily about finding someone new, but learning how to live after the fact. Men might like it too, although it is definitely more directed towards women.
