Blue Valentine 2010

This film was recommended to me by a friend that knows me all too well. "It's a good movie-not my favorite, so don't get your hopes up-but I'm sure you will like that it's not the typical uplifting story with the traditional ending...." Great recommendation! Written, and directed by the same-Derek Cianfrance-This film follows Cindy (Michelle Williams), and Dean (Ryan Gosling) through their trials of falling in, and out of love, while raising a daughter. Jumping back, and forth from current day, to when they first met.... A very touching, emotional roller coaster-I'm sure anyone can relate to that has fallen in-love, or has lost. A stellar performance from Gosling (Remember the Titans, The Notebook, Lars and the Real Girl) , and very believable Williams (Dawson's Creek, Shutter Island, and Brokeback Mountain). I'll say "great" film rather than wonderful, because their is nothing happy about this movie-but I believe you must experience emotion, to know emotion... and you will "feel" this movie. I give this one 12 eggs-thanks for the recommendation... Loved it!!
