![]() ![]() But the facts on the ground-unemployment numbers, foreclosure rates, deaths from terror attacks-are simply not dire enough to explain the present atmosphere of malaise.Īmerican anxiety springs from something much deeper, a sense that large and disruptive forces are coursing through the world. ![]() There are reasons to be pessimistic-a financial panic and looming recession, a seemingly endless war in Iraq, and the ongoing threat of terrorism. Other polls, asking similar questions, found levels of gloom that were even more alarming, often at 30- and 40-year highs. In April, a new poll revealed that 81 percent of the American people believe that the country is on the "wrong track." In the 25 years that pollsters have asked this question, last month's response was by far the most negative. ![]() ![]() ![]() Trust me, I’ve seen more than my share of corny movies and still I love how this movie goes all out and celebrates its mush, never for once pretending to be anything else. Like it generally happens, fate brings them together in the winter musical and sparks fly. Both Shane West and Mandy Moore are quiet and earnest even as they set out playing caricatures of the high school jock and the church-going weirdo respectively. But the electric lead pair and Switchfoot’s remarkable songs more than made up for the cliches. I completely agree that the film doesn’t break any new ground when it comes to telling the boy-meets-girl story. ![]() The way they were able to capture the naivete of that first love still gives me a warm feeling when I think about it. And even though, the author went on to hit the Hollywood mother lode with Nick Cassavetes’ The Notebook, it was the Mandy Moore-starrer which set the ball rolling for me. The film was one of the earliest adaptations of a novel by Nicholas Sparks, many of whose stories went on to become feature films. It was Adam Shankman’s A Walk To Remember starring Shane West and Mandy Moore which released more than 16 years ago. And much before Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling passionately kissed in the rain came a movie which made me weep a lot more than The Notebook. Before The Notebook, there was A Walk To Remember, a classic teen romance based off the book by Nicholas Sparks. Doesn’t matter how mushy a movie is, as long as it is sincere. ![]() |
