Blue Valentine

Love and how quickly people fall out of it is what this movie is about.  A married couple try to get back to where they were when they fell in love but fail.  As you watch their struggle for the happiness they once had you realize that life has gotten the best of them.  This movie shows how quickly people change and how quickly you can find yourself just going through the motions.  Marriage is hard and takes effort.  That effort is required 100% of the time.  This movie shows how easy it is for people to forget what it was that brought them together in the first place.  It is a sad movie and shows that not everything in life has a happy ending.  What I have taken from this movie is this: if you want a happy ending you have to work for it and work for it every day of your life.
