Feast of Love

I really liked Feast of Love... I figured it was going to be another pointless romantic comedy, which I enjoy so I would have watched it anyway. It was still a romantic comedy, but the characters and plot were so well written and developed that it set it apart from others of it's kind.

The story was centered around a man named Bradley. It starts out with his marriage that he's been in for six years. His wife soon meets a woman, that she falls in love with (I know not the stereotypical way to go, but it was really believable and sweet the way they fall in love), and shortly leaves her husband for. You don't see much of the wife after that, but it's a fitting ending for her, and you know she's happy.

The man was actually a really good, loving husband, so you feel sad for him rather then happy like you do in some movies like this. He ends up meeting another woman, who he doesn't know it but is sleeping with a married man (who is a complete jerk) on the side. She is an independent, fierce woman, and likes Bradley because he is sweet and sensitive, and she likes being a lady for a change.

The two marry, Bradley is really happy, but they keep showing scenes with the woman where you realize that she is actually in love with the married man. They haven't been seeing each other since she told him she was to marry Bradley, and run into each other later. The man leaves his wife, and sadly, the woman leaves Bradley.

Bradley is alone, and heartbroken again. He intentionally cuts off the tip of one of his fingers, claiming he want his outside to feel the way his inside does (awwhh! This was so sad). Thankfully, Bradley falls in love with his nurse at the hospital, and this relationship works out.

I loved this movie because it was about the best and worst things about being in love. It was beautifully written, and the character of Bradley was completely lovable.
