The Last Song

The Last Song
So last week I went to see the movie "The Last Song" with my best friend Kristen, and pretty much LOVED it.
Well I didn't just "love it", I related to it. The movies about a young teenage girl named Ronnie (Miley Cyrus) who goes through a rebellion stage in life when her parents get a divorce. After having been shipped off for the summer to her dad's house, Ronnie is now forced to redevelop a relationship with her father. With her little brother and her father on her case, Ronnie feels like theres no where to turn but to herself. Having met a beach boy named Will (yes i know it sounds sort of cliche), Ronnie now has to deal with everything plus a boy on her hands.
Well here's the trailer for a better explanation -

Now to my blogger insight...
Well like I said before, I really relate to this movie because not only did i already go through a MAJOR rebellion stage but losing a loved one as well is something that has been on my mind since my grandma got sick with cancer. I dont really know how to react to something as huge as that but I guess watching a movie in which the main plot deals with something like this kind of allowed me to let out all my feelings towards it and let me really deal with it instead of denying what was actually happening infront of my face. As well, the emotions towards the love within the movie felt extremely real to me. Everyone knows the love stories in movies are highly fake and nothing ever really works out like that in real life. But the portrayal of the summer relationship between Ronnie and Will is bumpy and never easy which is what it is like in real life. I'm sort of like Ronnie in a way, I get nervous and scared to get close to someone because I dont know if they will hurt me or not. Love is a really crazy thing in itself too, like just the fact that people put huge amounts of trust into one person and give them opportunities to crush them is beyond me but I guess one day I'll really know.
Another reason why this movie really relates to me, is the father and daughter relationship. Mine and my dad's.. has always been a little weird and on edge. It's hard to explain but we've always had times when we got along and times when we havent. The relationship Ronnie has with her father is rough but grows when his sickness comes in the mix. I really dont want that to happen with our relationship, my dad's getting older and I can see the stress of life and the craziness of his jobs and bills getting to him every day. I try to impress him and make him proud of me but it gets harder and harder each time. I didn't really want this to become a sob story on my blog.. So i'll go on about the song in the movie thats motivating and beautiful. The song "When I Look At You" by Miley Cyrus, I feel it really fits in with the movie and its crazy plot. I really relate to the words that Miley sings and every time I swear it gives me goosebumps.
