Weekly Film Review: Endless Love


What is my film about?
David has had a crush on Jade since the first time he saw her in the tenth grade. With high school coming to an end, David has never spoken to her until her family pulls up to The Inn, where David works as a valet. She and David fall madly in love, a love that only grows stronger as parents try to tear them apart. David knows Jade's past, but as his secrets are slowly revealed, Jade's trust is tested and leaves them wondering if they are truly meant to be together.
Location and production of film:
Endless Love starring Alex Pettyfer was filmed in Georgia. Universal has started production in Georgia on a remake of the 1981 film Endless Love which starred Brooke Shields and Martin Hewitt. This time around, Alex Pettyfer and Gabriella Wilde are set to star in the movie which will open on Valentine's Day 2014

  • ·         Family

Scene:
*Father gets stuck in house set on fire, boyfriend goes into save the Father*

The scene takes place in the room where the fire grows heavily and heavily. The micro feature I spotted was performance as the Father lost a previous child; he wanted to take his belongings before he left the room, but he wanted to take almost everything, which was slowing him down from escaping the fire that broke out in the room he was in. The boyfriend comes in and tries to drag the father out, but he becomes unconscious. The father drops his son’s belongings and picked up the boyfriend. This indicates that the father dropped the son’s belongings, realising that grieving  was keeping in the past, neglecting his daughter’s happiness with the boy she’s with (because he doesn’t like him).
