I saw Blue Valentine today.Wow, what a bittersweet, achingly saddening movie. Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling were so real, so evocative of the emotions of pain, sadness, love, heartbreak. Everything from the near abortion scene, to the blowout at the doctor's office, to the sweet tenderness of that first date and the music/dance...to how she stopped driving to run to the woods and to be near tears. To him blaming her for not locking the dog cage.
Best movie I've seen in a while. And god do you want them to make up and be together. Yet you understand why they are being torn apart.
Both she and Natalie Portman in Black Swan nailed their performances. Both Oscar worthy.
