Wonderful.

I loved it. I added the lines:

'The emotions felt after a death are the most beautiful ballet. Guilt dances a slow adage with hurt. Fear dances a quick allegro with worry. Sadness waltzes on its own at the back of the stage. Then when it is time for sadness’ great solo…'

to my favourite quotes on Facebook (naming you as the author of course). They just made a lot of sense to me and sort of spelled out the exact feelings after losing a loved one.

This piece is beautiful. It follows the style of the film so well. Very nice.

Very interesting. The words really flow, almost poetic, and it really matches the character and her-for lack of better words-'way of being'. The repetition is also a key component because it helps to create the appropriate atmosphere. The description of the events and the narrator's realization work together really well. The writer also does an excellent job of explaining what she is thinking, what is going through her mind, even though she has no one to talk to [[its a monologue]]. The fact that it is a monologue makes the message seem more important and is embeded into the reader's head.

Wonderful...you captured the beauty and simplicity of the movie effortlessly. The words are not labored or pretentious. It flows like a dance.

That was breathtaking. I absolutely love it. You write so beautifully in your own unique style...and I loved how you talked about the emotions dancing. Your writing is beauty. Keep up the wonderful work! I love this movie and your writing!

I can see what you're trying yo do here. Maybe you should have gotten a better sentence to go in between the lines (rather than 'It's only a paper bag, you know.'). Anyways, you might have some real potential here. Keep it up.

relly poetic

that storie is tight because itreally touch my heart...

Oh, this Fic was written so beautiful!

I was beautiful, don't you just LOVE American Beauty?
I really like what you write

this was written absolutly beautifully. tell me, who wrote it... i mean, who's pov? I love the passage where the emotions dance. again, this is great. write.

Jane? Really? Sounds more like Ricky. Nevertheless, quite poignant and riveting.

Wow. Very powerful.

This was a beautiful reflection on the movie. I think that more movies should take on the challenge of evoking such emotion and passion from an audience as 'American Beauty' did. What is life? Why are we so concerned with things that aren't important? Perhaps the filmmakers did decide to keep Lester Burnham's eyes open after he was killed because only then could he fully see the wonder of what was laid out before him. Wonderful prose, I commend you.
