Love and Die
This story is a typical romantic
comedy with an unexpected twist. This
story involves a couple and the girl that the guy is cheating on his girlfriend
with. Sounds pretty typical, but the difference is what happen after the
girlfriend finds out her boyfriend is cheating on her. You would think the
girlfriend would just leave him, but she doesn’t she does more she finds the
other girl and what she does to her is very surprising, there was a murder a horrible
murder.
The names of the main characters
are; Chris is the boyfriend, Ruth is the girlfriend and Britney the girl that
Chris is cheating on Ruth with. Also; involved in this movie are Britney’s best
friends Nataly and Rosie. There were other people involved, for example the guy
Britney went out with, Ruth’s friend who coincidently are Britney’s friends too
and many other people that while not main characters they are important people
that help Britney through all this. In
the movie I would like Channing tatum to play Chris he has similar
characteristics are Chris, and Channing Tatum would be able to really get in
the character as Chris. Ashley Rickards would be playing Ruth, just because
Ruth is punkish/ rock and roll and Ashley has played rolls in which she is punk
and emotional which makes her the perfect candidate to play Ruth. Sophia Bush will be playing Britney; Britney
has a strong personality she’s very independent, she knows what she wants and
goes for it, at times she’s very lonely or so she feels. Sophia Bush has been
in One Tree Hill and she played a girl that was very independent, she has
experience playing this roll, she’s very talented and sure she can play the
roll of Britney. Bethany Joy Benz would play the Roll of Nataly the reason why
she would be the perfect person to play Nataly, besides Bethany looking like Nataly,
Bethany in One Tree Hill played one of the best friends of the main character,
which is what Nataly is to me. Bethany played an outsider, lonely, quiet lonely
that with time bloomed to be an outgoing person that will do anything for her
friends, totally and completely the same as how Nataly is. The other best
friend of Britney the one that has known her since they were small is Rosie,
she is a strong opinioned girl that keeps all her feelings and emotions bottle
in, tells no one what is going on, but she’s the first person who will help you
if you ever need it. Like every other
person she struggles to find who she is and what she is capable of doing, she
struggles in love because she trusts no one. Hilarie Burton in One Tree Hill
plays a very vulnerable girl who struggles with her identity, ideal to play the
part of Rosie. Also, in One Tree Hill Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton play best
friends just like Britney and Rosie. You might ask why I want all the actors to
be from the same show and the answer to that is, everyone in One Tree Hill were
friends or were people that interfered with their friendships or relationships
which is what happened to Chris, Ruth, Britney etc. etc. Chris is the only one
not from the show because he was knew to their little circle, Ruth’s character
is from One Tree Hill, but she later on came into the show just like Chris.
All the other Characters in specific
one guy that Britney talked to would be played by Paul Walker the reason
honestly is just because he is very handsome and has some resemblance to Ray
the name of the guy Britney was dating. The other people where Britney’s sister
who would be played by Alexis Bledel, the sister in law who would be played by
Emma Stone every other person that was apart of Britney’s life was played by an
extra not very important who played them since they were in and out of he life;
they did not last long enough in her life for actors to have an actual roll for
those people.
Now with that brief description of
who are the characters and the actors that will play them, is time to talk
about what the movie will be about. The movie will be about Chris and Britney,
they met at work when Britney started working at Fedex the first day they both look into each others
eyes and it was love at first sight or just a really strong connection. They
went months dating and talking, when Britney found out that Chris was talking
to another girl name Ruth she was devastated, Britney felt horrible she thought
she should of listen to her best friends when they told her that Chris was only
but trouble. Britney confronted Chris and he finally told her the truth that
Ruth was his girlfriend when she heard that she tried ending thing with Chris.
The situation was very hard because they all worked in the same place Britney
couldn’t stand seen them together especially since their was still feelings
involved between Chris and Britney. Britney needed to forget about him she went
to her friends for advice, they told her to forget about Chris and move on let
him be with Ruth they said and you just find someone else just move on. “
Panoptic- meaning doing the norm because of the idea that people are watching”
(Barker pg. ) Making Britney want to end thing that is why she went with her
friends, but didn’t listen to their advice she continued to go out with Chris
knowing he had a girlfriend; why did she allow it you ask? Well it was because
she had strong feelings for the guy, but one day came when Britney found out he
went on vacation with Ruth and that was the breaking point for Britney she
ended whatever they had going on. Even though it killed her she told him not to
talk to her ever again; times goes by and Chris keeps trying to talk to Britney.
Britney at that time is talking to Ray someone that would help her forget about
Chris. Chris makes all types of promises to her and she falls for it. Once
again her friends tell her that all he is doing is playing with her, but it
turns out that he actually broke up with his girlfriend to be with her. Britney
and her friends where ecstatic so many years and Britney and Chris were finally
together, they all though things were very good and that nothing could go
wrong. They did not expect what was going to happen next, a couple of months
pass by and Ruth finds out what Chris and Britney were doing so she seeks
revenge. One night Rosie, Nataly, Chris, Britney and Chris friends go to a
cabin to forget about work and just have fun, what they didn’t expect was to
see Ruth there. A fight burst out when Ruth sees Britney, problems happening
from the first day to the last day. Everyone is gone from the cabin; Britney
stays alone when she starts hearing noises she thinks that her boyfriend and
her friends are playing a joke on her. Ruth caught Britney and little by little
she tortured Britney, she cut off her fingers one finger at a time, then her
toes, stabbed her 10 times and to end Britney’s life she cut of her head and
Ruth enjoyed every minute of it. When
everyone comes home they are frighten to see what is left of Britney in the
living room, with Ruth standing next to her holding a knife. Such a beautiful
love story ends in tragedy and who is to blame the crazy ex or Britney and
Chris for going out knowing Chris had a girlfriend.
You ask why you should pay for this
movie to be made, simply because it’s a movie with a simple message do what is
right no matter what the feelings are. The author Baker talks about language
that it’s the formal system. This movie has clear language people would not
have a problem interpreting the language or the message of that language. You
should make this movie because the characters show a real connection amongst
each other; it shows that love at first sight does really exist. Like in Doctor
No written by Cyndi Baron, Chris was a womanizer just like James Bond, but the
difference is that in this film you get to see a man go from being a womanizer
to being faithful to one girl. Yea I know what you must be thinking why does
Britney die at the end why isn’t it a happily ever after, and the answer is
that this movies is trying to show that life not always has a happy ending
thing might be hard at times then be good, but if things are done wrong
something bad can happen. As I read a book
called Walden on Wheels the guy was
in a horrible debt didn’t know what to do he called that debt blue cloud, it
consumed him, he didn’t know if what he was doing to get rid of the debt was
the right thing. That is exactly how Britney felt like she had a blue cloud,
their so call relationship was consuming her and killing her little by little. Although
Chris and Britney’s relationship was based on their similar personalities they
did things completely wrong. “Personality consists of a relatively enduring set
of characteristics that define our individuality and affect our interactions
with the environment and people.” (Bjorklund pg.146) There simple personality should of made them
realize they were messing up. This movie will show people that we are all humans
and make mistakes, that love exists, that things could haunt you if you do them
wrong. The movie is romantic comedic and a horror film making it the best
combination for a perfect movie. “Students were
asked to report on their romantic comedy movie viewing and beliefs about
romance. Results showed that individuals who watched these films in order to
learn reported stronger endorsement of romantic ideal beliefs than those who
did not watch to learn” (Hefner, Wislon). This study is a strong proof that college
student like romantic movies, that is what’s going to make this movie a big
hit, also there’s not a dull moment in this movie keeping the viewer wanting to
watch it and not leave during the movielike it has happen before.
