"I cannot let you burn me up,
nor can I resist you . . .
No mere human can stand in a fire and
not be consumed"
Possession
I watched the movie Possession for the first time last night.
(This is the one starring Gwyneth Paltrow)
It is a beautiful story about an inconvenient romance.
It is complicated, secret, and opposed by culture
but it produces beautiful results.
I LOVE stories like this.
I deeply believe that all relationships do not have to follow a cookie cutter format for the people in them to experience true romance.
Sometimes, not being able to be together at all creates a type of romantic passion that would not exist under other circumstances.
I highly recommend this movie if you like Victorian England, poetry, tortured romance, and/or Gwyneth and Aaron Eckhart.
Another AMAZING movie along these same lines is "Dangerous Beauty"
One of my favorite movies of all time, I highly recommend it!!!!!
Do you have any tortured romance-type movies to recommend to me????
Love,
Ambria Monique
