Leap Year Will Improve Your Outlook On Life

By Sadie Faulkner

Romantic comedies are typically seen as the types of films that only woman are allowed to enjoy. However, all woman still attempt to push them onto the men in their lives in order to get them to understand more about woman and love. Fortunately the movie, Leap Year, is a movie that both men and woman will equally appreciate.

The movie starts off with a young woman sadly disappointed in her boyfriends lack of commitment. He seems like a genuinely good person and does no harm by her. However, something seems to be missing in their relationship. That little spark that gives any relationship that special magic seems to be missing.

However, this young lady refuses to believe that this fact is true even though in her heart she knows it is. Therefore, she proceeds to Ireland to propose to him on a leap year. Ireland has a so-called famous tradition that a woman can propose to her boyfriend on leap year. So off to Ireland that young lady goes.

While in Ireland she encounters nothing but obstacle after obstacle. However, she is lucky enough to stumble into a young man who helps her along the way. She does not realize it at the time that this man is actually trying to help her. The young woman attempts to push him away and hold her head high. Yet as the movie progresses he slowly starts to get to her.

This man is eventually able to wear down the young woman and get inside her head. He is able to get her thinking about what truly matters most in life and relationships. She is a hard-headed woman who is extremely independent due to her long history of misfortunes. However, despite all of this he is able to manage to get some goodness and sensible words into her.

The young man turns out to be a good man who helped her through all of her struggles along the way. Without his help she never would have completed her long and treacherous journey. Throughout the time they spent together during their journey the young man is able to impart some wisdom upon this young woman. He is able to show her the true meaning of life. This is the message that the audience should take away from the film.
