Leap Year


Another romantic movie? Yes, I'm in the mood of romantic recently. The leap year is a Irish tradition that give the right to women to propose on Feb 29. Usually man propose to a girl, right? Although now, girls are brave enough to take the first move.

The story begins with Anna & Jeremy, who want to buy an apartment. Anna (Amy Adams) is a stage apartment, her job is decorating an apartment / house to be sold. While Jeremy is a successful cardiologist. When her girlfriend spotted Jeremy on a jewelry store, she concluded that he'll propose her friend. Happily she tell Anna about it.

But Anna was disappointed because she got an earrings instead of a ring. Earlier her father remind her about the Leap Year tradition, when he heard about Jeremy's schedule for Dublin. The right place, hopefully the right moment too.

On her way to Dublin, many things happened. Due a bad weather, she end up in Diggle instead of Dublin. She tries her best to reach Dublin before Feb, 29. With the help of Declan, a bar owner, she finally arrives at Dublin on time. When Jeremy sees her, he gets on his knee and propose her.

Wait... That's not the ending of the movie. You've to watch the ending by yourself. There are three things that make me breathless:

First, the beautiful scenery of Ireland. Wow! The sea, mountain, country side, and cliff are amazing. It makes realize the power of God. I wish to be able to go there one day. 



Second, I'm speechless to the words said by a bride. She said, "I wish my husband not to steal, lie, or cheat. But if you ever steal, please steal my sorrow. If you ever lie, please lie by my side in our bed everyday. And if you ever cheat, please cheat dead, because I can not live a day without you." Isn't it romantic? (Hope I quoted it correctly - cross my fingers - LOL).

Third, I love this question very much: if your house on fire and you only have 60 seconds to get out, what would you take? This question can reveal the most important thing in your heart. For me, I will get my brother and my dog.

Well, watch the movie and find out the ending!
