Review of The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005) by Samantha S — 07 Jan 2010

This was a beautiful movie!!!!!!

It is both sad & happy in an odd way, a life story that will stick with you for a long while to come after watching.

I went into it with a little bit of worry on account of what I had heard about it but it was beautiful, thats all I can say about it.

Its a weird world where the lines of love can become tangled in suck a way yet still continue to be pure & innocent.

The story of a love so strong, so true, & so innocent. A love between a father & daughter, of two best friends, of what would have been in another life two lovers. A love that is so beautiful & pure when looked at correctly that you cannot find flaw in it.

The story of a father & daughter who live in near solitude yet have all they need in each other. With the entrance of another woman & two teenage boys though, their lives are transformed & turned into something full of pain & regret instead of love & peace.

A story that holds true to the end, that keeps you wondering & hopeing until the end.

See it, if you know what it is to love in any form.

Beautiful preformances by both Camilla Bell & Daniel Day-Lewis!
