it’s telling different aspects of love as shown through stories in the movie
i have wathced this movie many many times. however the scene that touches me the most is the Juliet and Mark scene… it’s heart-breaking
Mark loves Juliet all along but he can’t let her know cos she is already together with his best friend. Instead he has always been cold and unfriendly to her.
then she married Mark’s best friend. in the wedding Mark was the camera man but what he was shooting are ALL Juliet but nothing else, not the groom, not the guests, not the solomization, not the rings exchange, not the kiss…
it’s christmas eve… finally Mark decided to do something:
Mark is so sweet…and the way he confessed to her is so sweet…
…
With any luck, by next year…
i will be going out with one of these girls…

but for now let me say…
without hope or agenda…
just because it’s christmas…
and at christmas you tell the TRUTH… to me, you are perfect…
and my wasted heart will love you…
until you look like this…

MERRY CHRISTMAS

last time when i was watching this part… i got tears in my eyes…
over heard the rhythm in one of the youtube clips this morning. it sounded so familiar to me. i had to have heard it somewhere before… after digging deeper on the net, i found the song title: 『Wish You Were Here』. what i remembered is actually the gregorian’s version:
this gregorian’s version has more electronica and chanting elements. it is one of my favourite tracks from the band.
this song is originally from Pink Floyd (rock version):
however, my favourite version is this sparklehorse’s cover version featured by Thom Yorke. i like it mainly cos of its rhythm: soft and catching. the best part for me is the guitar and piano.
someone claims that Thom Yorke’s vocals was recorded over the phone from his hotel room, and that the “noise” in the background is from the TV in that hotel room… duno whether it’s true or not…
