The world of entertainment is full of unforgettable stories and stories that continue to be revisited years after their release. While some leave us with a sense of bittersweet satisfaction, others leave a lasting impression due to their heartbreaking action. Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess's One Day falls into the latter category.
Based on the novel of the same name by David Nicholls, the film is a raw, unfiltered tearjerker, perfectly capturing the brutal reality of life's unpredictability. And its ending is sure to leave someone devastated.
David Nicholl's 2009 novel One Day, on the surface, seems like a light romance between two friends who, despite their mutual attraction, choose not to be more than friends. Over the course of the novel and later the 2011 film adaptation, we explore their lives as they fall in love with different people and eventually end up together. Seemingly a truly heartwarming drama, it is towards the end that we are faced with the true reality of life: unpredictability.
