SPEAK

(my favorite part of the movie--it made me cry a bit)

I've always believed that the obstacles or the joy that we experience through our lives are inevitable and of the upmost significant. A person can defy themselves through experiences and afterwards they can choose their direction to improve, or stay the same. This may seem like it's mostly coming from my optimistic side, but I believe no one fails after their mistakes. Which comes to mean that if you find yourself in either the same situation and don't apply your knowledge with the present situation--you still don't fail. You keep going. You fall, and you make the same mistakes over again, but somehow even in the deepest end you have a true epiphany. With any experience, I believe we all learn it just depends if we accept the truth or let away at us. Everyone has a voice; though there are those who cannot physically speak they do have their ways. No matter how long it takes; hope is always waiting for one to recognize one's individual brilliancy.

Being a Kristen Stewart fan since her movie "Panic Room", I have to say that Melinda (SPEAK) is by far my top 5 of roles Kstew has portrayed. Throughout the whole movie I was so focused on her mind set, and how she viewed her surroundings ever since that incident she went through. The character was so riveting that when she came around and knew what she had to do, I was struck by the message. The movie really tugged on my heart strings when Melinda (KStew) shows her art teacher (Steve Zahn) her hidden room in the school filled with her drawings of trees (symbolism). 

When I saw Zahn's eyes water, and KStew's eyes search for approval--I was attacked with a short clench in my throat and I saw the beauty of the character in watercolors. With this movie I was instantly latched onto the character and her pain. I had the deepest sympathy and I was very proud of her at the end. 

I would most definitely recommend anyone to watch this movie. I appreciate Kristen Stewart even more now as not only an actress--but a person. To be able to capture that in a movie is just beyond brilliancy. Kristen performed in such simplicity that it awed me. It was so natural to her. Please do watch the movie SPEAK. It's on YouTube, I recommend watching it through "WeLoveMcFlyForever" channel.

NOTE: I thought it was incredibly adorable how Michael Angarano and Kristen Stewart had the faintest spark of some puppy love going on here. Watching it now, and knowing that they've been going on strong (yes they are dating) since they were 16 years old is just so nice. I'm betting they met on this set and that's when something ignited? Anyway, they had great chemistry in the film!

Goodnight.
