All you need is love* - The Beatles

Opening sequence of Enchanted:-
Giselle sings for her prince. Prince sings the same song at the other end of the forest. Prince hears Giselle. Troll attacks Giselle, tries to eat her. Prince arrives and saves Giselle. Giselle falls - literally - on the Prince. They decide to get married the next day!



Now that's how a love story should go!!!!! Spontaneous singing, declarations of love, talking animals, trolls...

Why do we make things sooooooooooo complicated these days? There's the mind games, the lack of commitment, the feelings of uncertainty, matters relating to career and religion, financial considerations, views of parents and frens, social acceptance, timing... Give me trolls anyday!

One of my fav quotes found on me FB profile:-

That's your problem! You don't want to be in love. You want to be in love in a movie.

Can i change that now to "I want to be in love in a fairy tale movie"? Isn't all we need is just love?

OK - back to the movie...

*Yes, this will be played during my wedding a'la Love Actually! One of their best known and loved songs, it is the 362nd best song of all time according to the Rolling Stones mag.

It was a nice movie, but the complication of real life made things worthwhile. ....
