...." I forget to tell you the story happy ending..... it's you"...



Perhaps this is the best line taken from the film "Definitely, Maybe"....

Definitely, Maybe is a 2008 romantic comedy film from Universal Pictures, directed by Adam Brooks, that stars Ryan Reynolds, Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks, Isla Fisher, and Abigail Breslin.

Story about a father who's in the process of divorce and at the same time, his 10 years daughter anxiously asking question on who her mother is. Although he reluctant, finally he agreed with a condition .....that he will tell it like a story and most of details and names changed. I don't want to write summary of the whole story, as you may get it in more details in wikipedia or other sources.

This film intrigue me perhaps, because of the 90's background.... Bill Clinton running for president and Kurt Cobain song "come as you were". It is like a must song in radios and for youngsters that time...

As the story goes, the daughter finally discovered her mother identity from the story. She's so excited in meeting her after all this while, and at the same time hoping her mother and father can get back together again. 3 of them met in a park, and the parent discussing their separation. Her hope for reconciliation dashed and as the father about to leave, she ran back to him, crying and said, "what is the point all of this, if both of you getting divorce....."

The father gently stood on his knees, holding her arm and said calmly... "I forget to tell you the story happy ending... It's you".....

Each one of us maybe a father or mother to someone else, but we are definitely a daughter or son to somebody. We are the story happy ending...

And whatever happen between parent... don't let it impair and waste the children....
