My Sassy Girl




Last Saturday, when switching channels, I came across this movie in Star Movies - My Sassy Girl, a romantic comedy movie. It’s bloody good!!! I fall in the category of people who have watched very few English films. If someone asks me which my favorite English movie is, all I need to do is to choose between Titanic and The Jurassic Park. I find it painfully difficult to follow when there is limited lip-movement (Does that take so much effort to move your lips apart and talk more clearly?). Now that most of the English movie channels provide ‘English’ subtitles, it is a lot easier for lesser mortals like me! At least it encourages me to watch English movies without the natural feeling to gaze away from those channels.

Back to the topic! I liked the movie a lot. I even watched it when it was telecast again at 1.00 am the following day. Later, I came to know that the English movie (starring Elisha Cuthbert & Jesse Bradford) was a remake of a South Korean movie. (I’ve to watch that one!) I also hear that the Hindi movie ‘Ugly Aur Pagli’ is its Bollywood adaptation (Don’t know how far it is correct).

The movie had lot of interesting, catchy dialogues. A few of them as I remember; (the wordings might not be exact though):

“Sometimes you choose a relationship, sometimes they choose you.”

“Destiny is to build a bridge to the one you love.”

(And this is the best!)

“Once in your life, if you are lucky, you will meet someone who divides time; the time before you met her, and the time afterwards.”

Sometimes, movies reflect life; sometimes, life itself seem to be a reflection of movies.

So when am I going to meet “my sassy girl”? Or, will I ever get to meet her? (even a not-so-sassy girl would be delighting!)

No, I suppose...
