How Can Ageless Love Stories Fan The Flames Of Filipina Girls’ Hearts
Most women are self-confessed hopeless romantic.
Filipina girls are no exemption. There are still a good number
of women who get teary-eyed when they hear someone professing undying love to
somebody. Women’s hearts melt every time they see couples holding hands
and looking at each other’s eyes. And famous and ageless love stories still
have a certain effect on them, one way or another. The
Titanic was a very big blockbuster hit all over the world. Hundreds and hundreds
of Filipina girls were seen queuing in movie theaters when this
movie came out. The story of how Leonardo DiCaprio’s role, Jack, fell madly
in love to Kate Winslet’s character, Rose, was a never-ending topic of discussions
over the years. Though the ending was tragic it was the love story that most girls
are romanticizing about. Another love story that most
Filipinas can really relate to is the 1990 hit film Ghost that made Demi Moore
a superstar. In the Philippines, it was not just Demi’s hairstyle that was
admired by the girls but the movie also strengthened their belief that love is
definitely forever and nothing can stop it, not even death. In a country where
people are still very superstitious, movies like this can really have a great
impact on the people. The Beauty and the Beast is another
movie that is originally intended for kids but appreciated by most adults, especially
the women. Filipina girls especially love this movie because
it centers on love and nothing else - that love can make the impossible possible. Dirty
Dancing was another hit of Patrick Swayze, which was actually released before
his team up with Demi Moore in the movie Ghost. Filipinos in general, fell in
love with this movie not just because of the story of great love but also because
of the dancing involved. Filipinos love to dance and if it is mixed with a very
nice love story then it is a sure hit, just like the other movies in the same
genre, Grease and Moulin Rouge. Filipinas also love movies
like the Notebook, A Walk to Remember, Message in a Bottle, Nights in Rodanthe,
Dear John and the Last Song, which are actually all novels by the very famous
Nicholas Sparks that are made into movies. All of these movies ended with someone
dying, but Filipinas really love heartwarming movies that would really make them
cry or weep inside the cinemas. These kinds of movies are really a hit among couples.
And most girls usually associate their relationships with most of these films. Movies
like Romeo and Juliet and other classics like Gone with the Wind, Casablanca,
and the like are definitely included in the list of the best date movies among
girls in the Philippines. Anything with a very good love story are well accepted
by women in the Philippines. In retrospection, it
actually does not matter where you are from movies with love as themes are really
approved of by the people. Filipina girls are just maybe more
wholehearted when it comes to these kinds of movies, since Filipinas are known
to be more passionate and expressive when it comes to love and relationships.
