Brad's V Day

How did you celebrate your Valentine's Day?
1. It is HARAM to celebrate the day - fact.
2. It has been overly commercialized - square statement (from a single friend, Brad Pitt fanatic).
3. Everyday is Valentine's Day for us - sounds so cliche (from a married friend, traveling the world every year thanks to her pilot hubby).

Did you celebrate or did you not celebrate your most loved one? If it's not on the day, when do you exactly most rejoice the moment you share together? I can't help it but to be in that mood when February comes. Not necessarily on that day. Now, how did I celebrate it?

Since late January, after which the nomination for Academy Award was out, I've been curious enough to see Brad Pitt in his latest movie. For that, on Monday last week, I'd asked Mr. X to go with me and see Mr. Pitt's latest act which he got nominated for Best Actor on the immediate Saturday. I didn't realize that it happened to fall on 14th Feb. It was a pure coincident. It was a working Saturday for us. Normally once in 3-4 months, we'd go to see the movie as a couple on a working Saturday.

Then it happened as planned. We got the 4.20pm show for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (www.benjaminbutton.com). It was quite good performance by Brad. I would give him 4 out of 5 for his act. I think he acted better in the Legends of the Fall. For the story itself, it was a fantasy allright. But as usual, no matter how silly a Hollywood movie is, there would always be some hidden messages. I guess the key message for this movie is:
Cherish the person whom you love the most while you still have the time for it.
Brad is ageless! His fanatic fans can become fanatics forever and ever. Being 45, he is certainly still a hunk to be craved for by millions of women on this planet!!!!

Ok, where was I? Oh ok, it's about enjoying and rejoicing your loved one always. Never take your loved one for granted. True love will last forever, regardless of looks, age and financial status. You think you already have that someone? Or have you become that someone?

Wow..i'm so touched when you actually made an expression of praise and admiration for Brad Pitt,for the first time ever!!!! Every shot of Brad Pitt is jaw dropping for me..LOL!!!Yet to see the movie, heard from many viewers that the movie is extremely graceful depiction of life and love. By the way, the second statement did ring me a bell!!!

Well, being a fanatic for donkey years, I won't argue whatever your description of him. Jaw dropping? Was it more of drooling??
