This weekend we saw two movies one old and one new both with the same underlying message. Coincidence? Maybe.
The older one was a Bond thriller called 'The Spy Who Loved Me', where the svelte Russian agent tells Commander Bond to have one - positive mental attitude that is. Of course you cannot be Bond if you do not.
The other is an engaging romantic comedy called 'About Time'. The romantic comedy genre has taken off big time and I think is directly proportional to the amount of anti-depressant pills being sold in the country.
The cast is not your A-listers but the story line is easy flowing and acting very natural. It is a tale of a family where the guys can travel back in time to a certain event and change the way things work out based on the observed chain reaction the first time around.
The movie is set in Cornwall, England on the coast where the protagonist grows up to be an adult and goes through life wanting to find and experience true love. Originally he merely wants to score like a pimply chap might in his teens but later finds himself attacted and eventually fine tunes the experiences to meet and marry the woman he loves played by Rachel McAdams.
After having babies of his own he finds that he cannot continue to change his future (which actually already took place) and that true life is to be lived by facing what comes with the utmost gusto as you can. It helps to go through life with a positive mental attitude so that each day counts.
