Alright watched wicker park, one of those shows where you watched again to catch up with the details, and not for the ending. Great show in my opinion!
The following review are totally based on my opinions.
You can skip this part if you want to.+Time, distance, sacrifices, pretense, truth, hope and love
The beginning of the show was just a simple introduction of the two guy characters, Matthew played by josh harnett plays the main character, the other guy character simply acts as a catalyst for the plot. *The plot in this show, will never ever happen in real life, which actually makes the story so OH MY GOSH! Which i repeatedly said like 10 times at the back of the show where everything falls into place. Oh and there like half a dozen flashbacks, and when the flashbacks end, then you realised it is actually a flashback. So the film was pretty much weaving in and out of the main plot, which makes it a little confusing at the front, but if you persist watching on, and when things fall into place, you might just said OH MY GOSH!
It is also quite emo at the last 5 minutes, when Matthew looks at Lisa from behind. And him seeing her hurt, and all the pain they both went through. Wonder what went through his mind and heart. +
Yup. There is some nice music in the film.
We see how lies separate, breaks relations, hinders, and tears down everything. In the end the lies will get back to you, and the pretense will fall off, truth prevails, and we will see how you handle it all.
There were significant moments and destinations where it really relates to Cinderella. The bar was like the palace. Wicker park, is where the lovers hold their hope - their usual spot. The heels was used as the tool to identify the real princess. And here truth prevails.
And admist all this,
where distances and time made these two lovers go crazy, they both held on to hope. In love, there is hope, so if love remains, hope remains.However, in this show, prince charming was a big fat liar as well, so who said prince charming was that perfect? Prince charming made a mistake. Prince charming was willing to give up his fiancee just to pursue his first love. His past love.
So stick to one please!
Hold on to truth, hold on to love, hold on to hope. Let it all begin with God.
