I chose the movie "The Sweetest Thing" because it's the only romantic dvd I have here at school. It's a big chick-flick and kind of has a weak plot, starring Cameron Diaz, Christina Applegate, and Selma Blair. The main character Courtney and two of her girlfriends start out single at the beginning of the movie and go out to a dance club one night where Christina meets this guy who she feels is her perfect match. He tells her to call his room if she wants to meet up but she calls too late because of nerves and he already had left the hotel. Christina and her friend Courtney find out that Peter's brother is supposedly having a wedding so they take a roadtrip to go to it so Christina can tell Peter how she feels about him. When they get to the wedding, it's Peter's wedding, not his brothers so they leave embarrassed. Peter's wife breaks down and says she's in love with someone else and Peter said he didn't want to get married either and he finds Christina's address in a dress shop she had been to in town. He goes to her apartment and waits for her, first is rejected, then they fall in love. One of my favorite scenes is when Peter and Christina finally get together at the end. It's really cheesy but cute at the same time. This plotline isn't too great and follows a typical romantic plotline with meeting Mr. Right then there being a conflict and they happily ever after. The only thing a little different is that this movie's setting is more modern and humorous.
