Session 3: My favourite movie.


All my favourite movies are romantic, but one that I specially love is "City of Angels", wich name in spanish was traduced like "An Angel in Love".

We live in a world where the angels are watching us in every moment, they live with us, but we cannot see them: they're just sends of God to guide us when we die and then take us to the Paradise. The angels can't feel anyhing, not even a touch or a smell: they don't have senses.
In this context an Angel - called Seth - is in a hospital waiting for the death of a pacient, and during the operation he sees the desesperation of a young doctor, Maggie, for saving her patient. In this moment, their eyes meet, and he believes that she could see him.
After that, he began to follow Maggie, seeing his pain about the death of the patient. Meanwhile, he was falling in love with her. One day, in the hospital, Maggie saw him - the reason was that the angels can be saw when they want to - and she also feels a special connection with Seth.
They started a friendship, and Maggie also falls in love with the Angel.
With the time Maggie realized that Seth couldn't feel nothing, and so she understand that he was not a human. She decided to leave him, and maybe get marry with another doctor, that "just can feel her". In this moment, Seth sacrificed his life like an angel and became human.
He went to Maggie's home to meet her, and with that's new, they decided to spend their lifes together. He can feels now, so everything was wonderfull for their both.
But, after a day together, Maggie dies in a car accident.

I like this movie because the following things that happened. After Maggie's death, Seth was alone in a new world of new sensations. He feels the pain, and we can think that we could believe that everything was in vain, because the romance with the love of his life was too short, God takes Maggie after just a day. But when another angel asks Seth if it was worthy, he answered "It was worthy just by feeling her skin for a second". I think it's so beautiful that a person - in this case, an angel - could give everything for love, for real love, even when it's just so sad, and when it's mean also pain, that I can admire that and believe that somowhere exist the real love :)

I do not like this movie, because it is contradictory. If God allows the angel becomes a person for one love that really exists, then if the girl died there are two options: or God is bad or God does not exist. Both options are contradictory.
