The film "P.S. I love you"

Plot

There lived Holly and Jerry, a pair of young men in love. They had everything: tender feelings and petty domestic quarrels and stormy reconciliation. I wish the film would end there, but Holly's calm, everyday life ended with Jerry's death, a sudden, stupid and insanely insulting death ..

The girl, heartbroken from the loss of her beloved, did what all truly lovers would probably do if, God forbid, this happened to them - she put on her boyfriend's shirt, hung the windows with curtains, began to absorb alcohol in liters, look old films, every minute stumble upon things reminiscent of past happiness and cry, forgetting to at least periodically take care of hygiene and food. This Kingdom of mourning was violated by friends and mother who suddenly came to Holly's birthday. This is where the most interesting thing begins: in an unknown way, Holly receives a letter from Jerry, which is written as if from the other world, it gives her small parting words and makes her follow the rules written in it so that after a while the next letter will come. This is how Holly comes back to life. This process is complicated, painful and sometimes seems obscene, but ... life goes on. HIS is not, but life is.

Actors

First of all, you probably need to talk about Hillary Swank. A girl with such an unremarkable appearance in order to brilliantly play the main role needs to be at least an experienced actress, she really has plenty of experience, but probably it was some of her inner qualities that allowed her to so organically get used to the role of Holly. Now Swank herself is associated only with Holly, that is, it is impossible to separate these two girls, which emphasizes the true skill of the actress. Personally, I would give her an Oscar.

Gerard Butler has long proven how perfect a man he can be. I don't know if he is like that in life, but on the screen he is always courageous, seductive and somehow naively in love. The role of Jerry is not so big, but he played it impeccably sincerely. Sincerity of feelings in every word, in every gesture, in every look. Probably, it is in those moments when he is on the screen that tears begin to run.

How not to say about Lisa Kudrow (the same charming Phoebe from "Friends"). It is difficult not to perceive Lisa as Phoebe, but she has to, because the actress is multifaceted and can successfully play any role. Nevertheless, in "P.S. I love you" Lisa probably learned a lot for her heroine from the image of Phoebe, which harmoniously blended into the film. Lisa played one of the girlfriends of the main character, just such a simple cheerful ordinary American girl, which we are all used to seeing the notorious Phoebe.

My impressions of the film

I still remember the emotions that I experienced after reading the description of the film in JOY magazine in the section of films that will soon be released in cinemas. I don’t go to cinemas, I don’t like it there somehow, but for the sake of this film I was ready to buy even the most expensive ticket. I waited and waited, all the deadlines passed, but the film still did not appear. After 2 months, I found out that the film had failed in screening and was canceled. I was now waiting for the disc. At least pirate. At least some! And he was not there. After another 8 months, my beloved man, in an impulse to make me pleasant, traveled to all the shops and markets of the city, barely found some pirate collection with this film and six more low-budget ones. God, what emotions I had! During the week, every day I watched the film several times and each time I sobbed as if I saw it for the first time. You know, this is just one of the few films that is worth the main shelf of your video collection and which will be reviewed by you more than once, no matter what film tastes you have, I assure you.
