unexpected, unexpected

I have always liked Coldplay, I have always liked The Scientist, but I never knew it was related to a certain movie, until the end of the movie when my eyes were a little blurry. Suddenly, I understood the meaning of the familiar lyrics.

At the beginning of the film, Matt is choosing a ring for his fiancee, and the next second, he meets a woman who looks like Lisa, a pair of former lovers, in the hotel. Then I started to track Lisa, the story developed smoothly, everything was expected, until the appearance of alex, the truth was revealed little by little, I started to hate alex, she ruined everything beautiful, but when I heard alex say: Maybe the first time she saw you, Maybe she felt the way you did the first time you saw Lisa, You remember that? What's the reason to blame her, matt has got Lisa's love and alex? She was obsessed with matt first, so she took the camera there to fix it, so she let matt meet lisa, does love come first?

After listening to The Scientist, I have a different mood. You can't do crazy things for love like Alex, live by the rules, and you can only leave your tears in other people's stories. Am I being too sensitive, even if I am, it's rare anyway.

Wicker Park quotes

  • [Alex films Lisa with her new video camera]

    Lisa: Come on, let me film you.

    Alex: No, you first.

    Lisa: Come on, Alex. Are you shy? You can't be shy if you wanna be an actress.

    Lisa: [Lisa holds up a book] Here.

    Alex: Shakespeare.

    Lisa: [Lisa continues to hold the book up to Alex and the camera] This is your big break.

    Alex: That's Shakespeare. I can't do that. That's too hard.

    Lisa: [Lisa begins to quote Shakespeare at the camera] Haply, when I shall wed. That lord whose hand must take my plight shall carry half my love with him, half my care and duty. Surely I shall never marry like my sisters to love my father all.

    [Alex begins to grows jealous of Lisa's natural acting ability]

    Lisa: So true, my lord. In life... Ah! I blew it. I'm sorry. That was bad.

    Alex: No, that was amazing.

    Lisa: [Lisa tells Alex through the camera] You know, the thing with acting is, Alex, you just have to commit. Otherwise, you're just a phony.

  • [Alex remembers the flashback of when she told Lisa that Matthew had been sleeping with another girl, which was a complete lie]

    Alex: [Alex cries to realize how horrible of a person she is, with Luke on the other side of her dressing room door] Luke, I'm so sorry.

    Luke: No. Shh. It's okay.

    Alex: I'm so sorry.

    Luke: No. Please, don't apologize. Please. God. I know you're doing the best you can. I just... I want to you to know that I... that I love you. All right? And I don't want to play games anymore. What's the point? I'm just terrible at them anyways.
