love of his life is a young actress

so, I watched this movie a couple days ago. Cast by Rachel Bilson and Tom Sturridge,who-happen-to-known-as-Rob Pattinson-Bestfriend (So?). Anyway,,the story is about Will Donner (Tom) and Emma Twist (Bilson) his neighbors and best friends. Separated at the age of 10, Emma grows into a beautiful, bright young woman while Will never quite advances emotionally. Now a young adult, he remains a sweet, innocent boy trapped in a man's body. Will needs to reconnect with Emma and continue the "relationship" that was never allowed to bloom into their teenage years. She increasingly becomes the object of his desire as he matures. Stuck in childhood, Will is determined to track her down and profess the love that he's held inside for so many years.It's the story of a poor dude, a real nut case, who dresses like a tu*d with pajamas an sneakers and his hat. He's been following the "love of this life to be married girlfriend" - only problem is, the girlfriend doesn't know bout it, or him, because he's been hiding and stalking her for years. In fact, everybody knows about this but they're so sick and mentally challenged and indecent that nobody has told the poor girl. Only dude's bro has some sense in him. All other people find that normal. Finally she'll realize he's been stalking her and she tells him but he's a real dummy. "I go where you go" he says. Cute. Sheet that's stupid. Poor girl just helped that loser a long time ago when they were kids and now she's rewarded by a pluto hanging around.


Will Donner:
If I had one wish it would be that your life brings you a taste of happiness that you brought me.
That you can feel what it's like to love.


As for the acting, nothing outstanding here but overall satisfactory. Rachel Bilson's acting skills are very limited but she always does an OK job. On the other hand,Tom Sturridge was great. His character was not an easy one but he played it very well. Again, the script is to blame for the character's flaws because as far as the way the role was played, it couldn't have been better. Richard Jenkins and Blythe Danner did the best they could with what they were given. I should also mention the soundtrack which was very good and fitting. Overall, it's a sweet little love story but you shouldn't watch this film with high expectations.

Great soundtrack as well! One of my favorites at the festival this year; I highly recommended to download!!
