*Oh*...
I never quite realised why I liked the movie "Notting Hill" so much (Julia Roberts, Hugh Grant). I just watched "Roman Holiday" (Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck), and it's finally hit me why I liked the former movie so much. Growing up, I watched a lot of "old" movies: "Rear Window", My Fair Lady", "Sabrina", "High Society"...etc... and Roman Holiday was one of my favourites, but the only thing that I didn't like was the ending because I grew up with the notion that the guy always gets the girl. It didn't occur to me that the writers of "Notting Hill" may have been inspired by "Roman Holiday", until I watched the ending of the movie again. When Hugh Grant goes to the press conference at the end of "Notting Hill", he wins back the movie star's heart... In "Roman Holiday", the journalist doesn't get the princess at the end of the press conference... how sucky is that?
Got my hair trimmed today, and (I think) I managed to persuade my stylist to use my hair at the Aveda workshop next week. Gotta sleep now, work again tomorrow! Ta.~
