i've always had a soft spot for Jesse cos i loved him so much when i was younger and i heard about this film and wanted to see it but i couldn't find it anywhere! now i'm determined to get my hands on it!
lol i'm a bit of an acting snob too so if you say he was really good, i trust you!
I'm so glad I watched it. I stumbled upon someone's LJ entry talking about the movie and was intrigued by some of the quotes they posted.. then I saw that it was on instant play on NetFlix and I finally watched it the other day. I'm sure if you got the free trial on netflix you could watch it? Ugh, it's so fantastic. I've watched it like 5 times already.
People compare it to A Walk To Remember (because it's a popular and nerdy couple falling in love) but it's so much better than that. It blows Nicholas Sparks out of the water because it's just so real and not stereotypical, forced or rushed. I could feel things through Natalie, as weird as that sounds. You can feel how she falls in love with him. It's so gradual but it hits you hard. Jesse was phenomenal. I'm definitely a fan of his now.
Omg Chris. You don't understand. This movie has done me in. I just watched it again and bawled like a baby for like 15 minutes. Ughhhhh. That being said, you definitely need to watch it.
Beautiful picspam. I saw this movie, maybe six months ago, on Showtime or TMC or something, and after, I watched it every single time it came on for the next two weeks (and still do whenever it's on). Jesse McCartney was amazing in this movie. Completely reminded me of why I was so impressed with him as an actor so long ago.
He really was. It was disarming, because I really was not expecting it. I didn't necessarily have any expectations...I definitely didn't think it would affect me the way that it has.
I don't know if it's because some of it ties into my own life or if it's just the movie. But it has definitely left something with me. I wish more people were aware of this movie because Jesse would definitely be taken more seriously as an actor if people could see how great he is in this.
