hopeless romantic

I had just finish watching Notting Hill, for the umpteenth time. It never fails to lift my spirit, this movie. Watching the smile of Julia Roberts and the funny Hugh Grant radiates a nice feeling in me. The facial expressions, the dialogues, the scenes, are simply wonderful. Especially the dialogues.
The writer(s?) managed to write such simple yet meaningful enough to convey the message of the movie. Unforgettable lines such like "Surreal but nice; Come and sit with me; I will feel the opposite, if that's alright with you; I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking her to love her; and my favourite, happiness isn't happiness without a violin-playing goat" makes the movie memorable, at least to me.
They managed to choose the most appropriate songs as the soundtrack as well, perfecting the movie.
Maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic, but this movie is the one for me, reminding myself that there is one true love for each and everyone of us, and that we should not compromise on love.
