The fault in our stars

picture taken from: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2582846/

I will not lie to you: I cried a lot during this film. While I had been strong, and not cried when reading the book, I was a puddle when actually faced with a film that deals with the mortality of our two romantic leads: (Hazel) Shailene Woodley  and (Gus)Ansel Elgort . I loved their chemistry, the sweetness of their exchanges, and the stakes set up by their illnesses and friendship.

The story line was about Hazel and Augustus are two teenagers who share an acerbic wit, a disdain for the conventional, and a love that sweeps them on a journey. Their relationship is all the more miraculous, given that Hazel's other constant companion is an oxygen tank, Gus jokes about his prosthetic leg, and they meet and fall in love at a cancer support group.

How romantic can this get. I was really touched and I realised that true love is there and it comes when you least expect it. In the movie Hazel didn't even want to interact with people and going to that cancer group support was her mother's idea and surprisingly that's were she met her one and only true love.

The sweetest part of this movie is that they didn't let their illnesses to stop them from falling in love. The best part is they even had a code It's okay. Seriously how sweet and romantic could this be.

It's a rather sad, and unconventionally dire story, but one that is worth telling, and does justice to all those living with cancer and in love.

And just when I thought that these characters Shailene and Ansel would be actors in more sweet and romantic movies, to my surprise there they were in the movie Divergent and this time they were brother and sister. Crazy hey.....Divergent falls under the genre of adventure, sci-fi and thriller different from the drama and romance in The fault in our stars.

Shailene has starred in movies like The Secret Life of the American Teenager and The Descendants among many other movies.

Ansel has also starred in movie like Carrie and Men, Women and Children among also many other thrilling and exciting movies.
