Little Manhattan

I missed love when it’s simple like you’re fall in love with a boy in your class, when that you spend a whole day steal a look at him and blush when he caught you look at him. I missed love when there’s this peculiar thumping in your heart when you speak to him, can’t look him in the face and all the words came out of your mouth was all wrong. I missed love when it’s still a silly thing, a phase you’re afraid to acknowledge it because your friends will make fun of it. I missed the day when fall in love is times when you feel alive the most. Because he’s there, and because the world is so pretty and you feel like you can live forever yet you can’t bear a day without seeing him.

I missed the kind of love they portrayed in Little Manhattan.

It was creamy and pinkish kind of love. It goes aawww from the beginning to the end. You watch this kid went through his every stage of his first love. You feel his butterflies when he saw the girl after spent some hours loitering around in front of her apartment wishing to see her, you glee with him when he ride this kick scooter with her in the back (I don’t know you can do that!), you awwed and want to hug him and tell him that every thing will be all right when he through the “I want to forget this girl” phase, all of it.

It was a good first love story. And it was pure and simple. As simple as

Are there any more beautiful words in the English dictionary than "See you tomorrow?"

With kids nowadays who grow up so fast before their time actually comes, seeing this movie was nice, it kind of give you positive perspective that somewhere in a corner of the world, there are still some people who live their life good.

Meanwhile, I leave you with its soundtrack, Matt White singing, Love~

PS: I hope Matt White didn’t do his hair like that.. And didn’t open his mouth like that and gave that kinda eyes.. And then the video clip would be perfect.
