Forget Paris

     Forget Paris is a romantic comedy movie. Watching "Forget Paris" actually was fun and entertaining. It is a movie that bring us the experience of love in real life setting on how love blooms between two random people. The relationship between Mickey a NBA referee and Ellen an airline employee starts in France. This happens because Ellen helps Mickey to relocate his father's casket which went missing. Besides that, Ellen was kind enough to company Mikey for his father's burial because she believed that none should be alone for their loved ones funeral. Here, Mikey had the feelings towards Ellen then he decided to extend his visit to Paris. There both of them spent a wonderful time together. Until they decided to get married and move in togrther.

     I could link the Strenberg's Triangular Theory of love (1986). This is because in different scenes of the movie shows the different types of love. In the beginning they had romantic love which includes passion and intimacy between two of them. It was because they was in a state of love where they did not think about the commitment they should have in a relationship and they just was having a fun time in Paris. Then after a while they got married there was only companionate love because the passion towards each other was reduced ad ca be said absent because both of them are seem to be busy with their own career and Mikey was also away from Ellen most of the time and Ellen was also seem to be busy with her work after she got promoted. The physical and sexual desire towards each other seem to be reduced significantly in the scenes where Ellen was alone at home waiting for arrival of Mickey. Mostly, everyone will have the aim of achieving a consummate love which is very difficult type of love to achieve but it is even harder to to maintain it. Later on in the movie I could see the effort both of them to achieve consummate love.

     In another part of the movie I understood the importance of give and take policy. This is because initially Ellen gave up her job just to be with Mikey and later Mickey took a one year of leave of absence and worked as a car salesmen which he did not like.But here I could sense the ability of both of them in giving in for their partner's happiness. In addition, Mikey did also took care Ellen's father when shes not around even he found that Ellen's father was annoying. Ellen also sent her father away to her brothers place because she understood that Mickey was not happy with hr father around. Here I could see the the give and take policy and understanding between both Ellen and Mickey.
     In a nutshell, this will be a movie that everyone should watch because such incident could happen in anyone's married life. It is how we face and deal with the issues that arise. in a married life there could be a lot of ups and down that might arise unexpectedly. We should not give up on the relationship but we also should work harder to make it work as shown in the movie which ended with a happy ending.
