fucking åmål. Well. I saw this movie Thursday called Fucking Åmål. It's Swedish and well, uh, Åmål's the name of a sort of hick-city. And, uh, I kind of got obsessed with the movie. I've kind of already slapped the title "Possibly My Favourite Movie Ever" onto it. *shrug* The movie is about - hmm, love, I guess? And being different and being bored and having courage. It's about Agnes, (the dark haired girl) who's 16, has no friends, a lame birthday and who loves Elin (the blonde girl) in secret so much her heart might burst. And it's about Elin, one of the most popular girls in school who is dying of boredom and has probably made out with "at least 70,000!!" guys and who wants to go to a rave and do druuuuuuuugs and get drunk or fall in love, just SOMEthing before she diiiiiies of boredom. It's about being a nobody at school and knowing you can't have the one you really really want. Only... somehow, it happens. The ugly duckling gets the beautiful swan girl. it's like magic. And it restored my whole view on love. *smile* I still think it's an embarrassing and overdone state, but if things like this can happen, even if it's just a movie, and make me feel this giggly and happy, then... maybe I can stop roll my eyes just for a second. belated birthday. Happy belated Birthday, JessicaBunny. :) my weekend. ..will most likely consist of me trying to find money to buy the Fucking Åmål soundtrack, book and t-shirt. Pathetic. |
