I watch a lot of movies, inhaling them, staying up late, plugged into my laptop. Like I used to, with books. And most of them are rather forgettable. Except once in a while, there's one that's just...amazing.
Shelter is this lovely movie that takes place in California, has all these shots of surfing and waves and people who seem solid and real.
And even though I should stop watching love stories, because they make me, ultimately, nothing but miserable, I can't quite stop watching, because occasionally I find movies like these, and I feel, for a moment, that love does happen in real life, that it is real and true and possible. Even for me.
Plus, in this movie, I relate to Zach so much it's not funny. But then again, anyone who's known me for awhile could guess why.
