Learning To Love Our Self First

2008 is pretty special because it is a leap year, and this date has been chosen for the release of Penelope, a heart-warming movie that is supposedly a comedy that will also bring tears to your eyes.

If you have not heard of Penelope yet, don't worry, I have exclusive trailer of the movie to share with you but first of, this movie stars Christina Ricci. The last I watched her was in The Addams Family and that was more than a decade ago. How she has grown to be such a remarkable actress!

Christina Ricci as Penelope

Christina Ricci is Penelope, a girl born into a wealthy family but despite all her richness, have to live with a family curse that has given her the nose of a pig. This curse is such that it can only be broken when Penelope has found true love. But who would love a girl with such physical defect, right?

James McAvoy as Max, the only guy who loves Penelope as she is

Like a fairy tale that this movie is, there is one guy who loves Penelope as she is. I think he is more enamored by her character and so tried to blank his mind from her pig nose. Hah! Everyone thinks that he is only after her big fat dowry but the reason he appeared in her life was to get a picture of her!

Anyway, you have to watch this movie yourself to find out if love works out for Penelope or not. But before that could happen, Penelope ventured out into the big bad world, made her first friend and found love, love for herself.

My friend always tells me that we have to love our self first before we could love another and this ring so true in Penelope. If you would like further information, visit the official website of Penelope.
