Brilliant drama, “Blue Valentine” manages to really set the tone of an atmospheric picture that is elevated by a strong cast of talented actors that simply possesses great chemistry on-screen. Directed by Derek Cianfrance, a director who is skilled at crafting, thought provoking, absorbing dramas, successfully!

It is a very sad movie and very real at the same time, because there are really a lot of things in woman’s hands. She decides the future for her family, husband, daughter. If she wants, she can give a chance to the relationship, if not than there are no arguments in the world that can help her out. You cannot order to your heart! In this movie is shown a story of one man and woman, how they met each other, how they started living together and all the things they had to go through, as well as the tough choice that they had to do. And many years after, comes the moment when this woman cannot hide anymore her indifference towards the person who married her even though she had a child. Maybe she never even loved him. Because a loving woman during six years of mutual life has to have a different need- the desire to have a child from her beloved man. But here there is no such story, and her feelings are dying as never existed. She had the fault for her dog’s death, and this way it is underlined even more the drama of this movie. This movie is a great example of how you should not fight for the family. There is no romance in it.

The best thing about this movie, is that it is made about you, about me, about us. We all know how to look strong, but in reality we are weak. I am sure there were a lot of girls who were tired and not didn’t love anymore, but they have found themselves in the words or acts of the main hero. And men were acting the vice versa way, they were not ready to say goodbye and to let go everything so easily! But in real life everything usually happens in a different way. I think the film director has managed to do the impossible! He caught the feelings and the mood of people who had a crisis in their relationship a loong time ago, and was able to comprise thousands of stories and fates in one single movie! I am sure that every person no matter the gender who will ever watch it, will stay under impression for a very long time! And after watching it will feel weird and empty, and sad in a way or another! This movie will help realizing many things in the successful and stable relationship, as well as in the relationship that “live” on the love of one person!

In the movie “Blue Valentine” are shown very well the worst sides of the family life, that happen in the ordinary life of ordinary people. But it is shown in the genre of drama. and i can say that everything in this movie is turning off! Even such innocent things as doing something together, or going to the supermarket. Yes that was the idea of the movie producer, to show how during the marriage people are growing apart. That was very difficult for me to watch this movie, but the good things is that i “opened” my eyes on lots of things, on lots of problems going on in my marriage as well! Of course the heroes make typical mistakes and if they would really want they could have corrected the situation between each other, but sometimes people are just too stubborn or proud in order to do it, and it is killing me the fact that it is easier for them to say goodbye to each other and find someone else in order to go on the most difficult path of communicating and getting back to the point of happily ever after with the person nearby.
