A tale of teen “love”, painted as mature love
PostedNovember 28, 2008
LouraFriend
from Ohio
Although clearly a tale of high school puppy love, the emotions shared between Bella and Edward were touted as mature, adult love which they were not. True love is sacrificial. Bella’s love was selfish. Time and again she put Edward, his family, and her family in harm’s way because she thought she could not live without him. Bella reaped all the benefits of this “love”-like his nearly divine protection, the thrill of being with someone “different”, the adventures he took her on, the attention and popularity of dating the hot boy in school, etc.-while Edward struggled constantly to protect her (and himself, and his family, and her family…) and restrain himself.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
