Sara: Hollywood had never done love or the works of fiction any good.

Movies change stories so much these days that they are leading us to believe that only certain types of girls or guys can fall in love. Funnily enough; once again it's all about image. Except the girls in the movies come with both the image and the personality, same with the boys. So then normal people go out searching for this, they find the image and think the personality comes with it. They are almost always wrong. I realized this while watching Dear John the other night. In the book, there was a plain girl with brown hair and compassionate eyes. She didn't seem to have a perfect body or long legs. Of course, on the big hollywood screen they made her a blond with large breasts, extremely long legs and a fake sympathetic face. Her face was really saying that she didn't care. No hollywood. Bad.

"I wish everyone was loved tonight"

For once I'd love to see a plain girl on screen who may or may not be slightly overweight with a pretty face. That's all. Maybe it would help some people in what their thoughts on love and who should be loved are. Is that really too much to ask?
