Hello guys, so the main reason why im blogging is because i have this sudden urge to blog. Secondly i just wanted to do another movie review, this time it's My one and only and i watched them in Star Movies.
First off, this movie is about a teenage boy living in the 1950s recounting his journey from New York to California, specifically Hollywood with his mother and older brother and along the way they encountered challenges and heartaches. I personally like the plot very much, it's simple and original though predictable at times, ye itt engages me to actually sit through everything and pretty much watch the whole thing. Im not really a fan of Renee Zelwegger partly because i am not very familiar with her work but she did a great job in playing a witty, independent-ish woman and a mother who knows nothing about her child. sad, but it's really entertaining to watch how she discovers a lot about her sons from their road trip.
Im going to have to admit that im not an expert in American culture particularly before my time but she did a great job is portraying a women in the 50's.
The movie has this sombre feeling to it but it didn't affect you emotionally, maybe because of the way the movie was shot but idk. The movie was abit slow but ironically the story progresses rapidly, i just don't feel bored watching it, it's a good 'feel good movie' in a sense that at the end of the movie you had a positive experience of watching it. Apart from that, this movie eventhough it's told from the perspective of a teenage boy but at the same time it also has that feeling of romance and glamour. Then again, America in the 50's is uber glamorous.
Don't they? I'll leave you non-existent readers with that.
