Me & EU

The past days, I've been playing flims on Netflix while working. Call it multi-tasking, but it's fun to turn your head to a nice film as a breaker from reading emails and doing layouts.

Yesterday and today, the movies that were playing were oldies but goodies. They were comedies from the mid-2000s, and they were very fun and feel-good films.

Aside from those factors, there was also a thread that connected these 2 films. They were both set in EU countries.

The first, "The Prince & Me" from 2004. This is about a Danish Prince who studies in Wisconsin to try and find "wild college girls from Wisconsin." But what he found was love. (More cheese, please!)

Bonus: this stars one of my all-time fave actresses - Julia Stiles! More on her later!

The second, "Wild Child" from 2008. Basically, it's the story of an American Girl who's exiled to a British boarding school, and this is where she learns more about herself.

Watching these 2 films, it makes me smile when I think about how uncomplicated yet compelling movies are back then.

Now, I have to look for more films of the same genre during the same time frame. Methinks that EU streak must continue.
