The Lake House

Photo from Yahoo Movies

I only needed to see the billboard, movie title and a line that says something like " an impossible love". It was a quick thought, a deja vu of "Il Mare" a Korean movie I watched months ago. It was in DVD, a "pasalubong" from bestfriend Oya (she is sooo into Korean movies and tele-novelas) who just came back from China. Today in the papers I saw it again and read the article...yes, somewhat, well, very similar. I searched the web and found out that this is indeed the U. S. version of Il Mare. I'm not going into details about the movie, I want you to watch it... I enjoyed the Korean version and "cried a lot". Not as much as I cried while watching "The Notebook" but it was a good cry.
An invitational gala premiere will be at Glorietta 4 tomorrow. Regular showing on all Philippine threatres will be on June 14.
Don't forget to bring a box of tissue.

Since I'm a sucker for love stories, I'm gonna watch this. :)

First time for me to hear about this film. It looks promising. But I don't think it's currently shown here in Switzerland *sigh*.

(Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment there.)

Oh, I can't wait to see this movie. I cried like a baby in the Notebook. So, thanks for the warning.

Hi... thanks for popping by my blogsite. So Lake House is HW's version of Il Mare? Then I won't be catching this, I suppose.

thanks for dropping by my blog, jane.

it looks like it will have to be a looooong wait before this gets shown here in germany, if at all. i might have to watch out for the dvd instead.

Hi Robin, my friend bought the Korean version in DVD. But I think this US version has no pirated or even original DVD copies yet :)

Hi Jayred, tnx for dropping by too. Oh well, you might want to keep it in mind though just in case it pops out in your theatres.

Hi Ate Bing, glad you liked the new template :)
DVD copies are a better option because you can always watch them in the comforts of your own place at your convenient time.
