Movie!

Foreign Correspondents
In the first part, "Dear Jenny," I thought it was inappropriate for Melody to write to the French guy pretending to be Jenny. If she insisted on writing to him she should have just done so to inform him what had happened and maybe introduce herself to him. Maybe then she could have kept writing to him, but as herself. Although, I can understand why she wrote to him. She was lonely, and wanted to be a part of something. She saw his love for Jenny and wanted someone to love her like that, so she decided to put herself in Jenny's place. That's why when they show the pictures she is the one with the French guy.

Jonas was really weird. He obviously had a huge crush on her right from the start. He seems like a do-gooder, so I think he may not have been genuinely concerned for her in what she was doing, but more so felt like it was wrong in general and hence she shouldn't do it. So he probably would've felt the same about anyone doing that and not just Melody.

The second story, "Love, Trevor," was the one I liked the most. I think Trevor really did care about Mira, but like his friend said, it's not enough to live off guilt and lust to survive a marriage. So that's why he didn't marry Mira even though he does like her. He just didn't like her in the way he would need to in order to marry her.

Mira obviously doesn't want to go back to her country. She's terrified of what will happen to her if she does. It's still a dangerous place. That's why she flew Trevor out to see her, in hopes that he would marry her and make it so she wouldn't have to go back there until it's safe. Of course, she souldn't have tricked Trevor into coming without telling him why. I think she just didn't want to have him say no right off the bat and have all hope be lost. She was hoping to make him love her and decide to marry her on his own while he was there. Sadly he didn't, and he just left. So eventually she had to go back to her own country.

The only thing that really confused me in this was the ending. How on earth did Melody wind up talking to Trevor? My only guess is that maybe Trevor's friend moved into the place where Jenny and Melody lived and maybe he wrote his letter to Mira but never sent it, and instead threw it away. Then when Melody went back for the letters she found that one too and wrote to him. Heck, maybe it was Trevor who had the light on her that night. Crazy crazy... but maybe that's how it went.

I know this movie wasn't supposed to be about entertaining us, but I really liked it! I thought it was really interesting and liked how there was so much thought in it. It's not something you just watch for fun, I agree on that, but since it made us analize the characters so much it held my attention. I like movies that make you think. Thanks for showing it!
