This movie (3-D animation) is about this couple being betrothed when Victor, the groom-to-be, finds himself wedded to a corpse named Emily. The movie is really cute, and very dark. I suppose I missed the concept of bright pinks and greens and purples in movies (wow, I never thought I'd say that)...
However, throughout the entire movie, I could sympathize with Emily, the Corpse Bride. She was an innocent throughout the entire movie. She just wanted true love, her dream wedding, a true romantic at heart. Even though I knew Victor had is bride-to-be still in the Land of the Living who was worried about him, I couldn't sympathize with her all that well. Sure, she had lost Victor, but at the same time...I don't know, haha.
I suppose this is because I can relate to Emily really well. When she sang her song comparing herself to the bride-to-be and she felt she came up short, I know I always do that. Then there were lines in the song that went:
Or dance
Or Sing
But she still breathes air
Who cares
Unimportant
Overrated
Overblown
If only he can see
how special you can be
If only he knew the you that we know...
Well those lines, haha, They are quite amazing. Unlike Emily, however, I can't play piano or sing or dance, but...but...I can write. I'm altruistic (although that makes me feel selfish when I say that), and I'm uhmm, I'm good with kids? And the other lines remind me of my friends who are always there for me. =]
Bahaha, oh life.
