Movies

I peered up the stairs at the girl sitting there, with a single tear streaming down the side of her face. One half of her face was obscured by her ebony curls, while the other was completely in view, with her hair tucked behind her ear. I walked up the stairs and sat next to her, feeling a bit odd, especially because the previews had just ended, and the movie had barely started, and she was crying. That tear continued to fall throughout the entire movie, whether the situation was happy or sad, there was a steady stream of saltwater streaming down her smooth cheek. When I asked her why she was crying, she said something that confused me a great deal, because she seemed so passionate about this odd opinion.

"Even though several important characters die, and a magnificent creature is attacked and killed, the guy gets the girl and the movie ends on a happy note and 'everything is ok', isn't that just terrible?"
