Posts from AnnaSophia Robb / Bridge to Terabithia

I'm glad you took a look; thanks to this, I got to know many people better, and saw them from an unexpected angle. :)

Now that there's been an increase in interest, I want to post two related Articles.

The first one.
“Paterson isn't afraid to raise agonizing, terrifying questions in her books. ‘The Bridge to Terabithia’ (this is the title the book has in its first Russian translation – M.K.) was written after her son David's best friend, 8-year-old Lisa Hill, was struck and killed by lightning. The author admits that she tried to find meaning in the tragedy, which seemed completely meaningless to her. She wrote this book primarily for herself, coming face to face not only with Lisa's death, but also with the realization of her own mortality. In that year, she was diagnosed with cancer, and she says that she could already hear the tolling of the funeral bell.”

And the second one.

"But far from the huge advertising posters and film shoots, AnnaSofia lived an ordinary teenage life. For example, she chatted on the phone, listened to music (among her favorites, she names: Coldplay, U2, The Beatles, and Frank Sinatra..."

Watched the movie. I hate the treacherous music teacher who calmly sawed through the rope over the ravine and then, as if nothing had happened, invited Jess on an excursion. It's all clear here: the music teacher was fond of Jess. Why would she invite a boy on an excursion? And the boy liked the teacher. And Leslie loved this idiot, she believed him... But seriously, the film opens up emotional wounds if you have them and if you have lost loved ones. Leslie doesn't appear until the end of the film... Just like in life. The boy is unlikely to cope with the tragedy with the world he and Leslie invented. After all, it is a world of fantasy for two people. It simply cannot exist without one of them. Even if that's not the case, this world will never be complete without Leslie. The only and beloved daughter of her parents, so unique and lively. Leslie, it's a pity that you're gone. I will miss you very much.

By the way, I watched the movie too. Probably about a month ago. The movie itself is decent, but it didn't make me cry. Maybe the fact that you praised it so much somewhat lessened its emotional impact. But overall, it's good: not annoying, not stupid, not pointless. Although, I had to listen to my roommate's opinions about pedophilia during the viewing.

I remembered another actress who played Matilda in Leon – Natalie Portman. After her huge success, there was a period of silence or mediocre roles. It's interesting what will happen to AnnaSophia Robb as an actress? She seems destined to play in dramas. Especially if her character dies at the end – success is guaranteed ;)

P.S. I caught myself thinking that if that trollish girl from the eighth grade was the main character instead of Leslie, there would be significantly less concern about her death. I'm just that cruel and insensitive ;)

Yeah, dramatic roles clearly suit her:) Anyway, I think you can guess what else you can watch – Have dreams,... and sleepwalking. By the way, the troll girl is there for a reason) She was there so that Leslie could also change, like Jess, and overcome her fears...

True, I had to listen to my roommate's reasoning about pedophilia while watching it)

Similar statements have already been made) Oh, come on, everything is fine, they just don't understand anything;).

Come on, it's okay, they just don't understand anything.

They are bots!

Yeah... they were showing "The Bridge" on TV today and yesterday, I thought we were in for a boost :)

Well, a little AnnaSophia to spice things up *jokingly*

Yeah, I finally watched "Bridge to Terabithia"...
I'm impressed... It's better than "Avatar".

And did the teacher really cut the rope? I think I missed something.

Welcome:smile12: :smile12: :smile12:

Leslie is better than blue-faced cats, and besides, it's the kindest movie:rolleyes:

Did the teacher really cut the rope?

The two worlds didn't get along, and that's why it broke...

Did the teacher really cut the rope?

It's all my imagination. There's always a desire to find a reason, especially for such an absurd death, especially the death of a close person... It's frightening to think about what Leslie is going through now, alone, with no future. No, that's not right... When a person dies, an entire universe dies with them...

I thought the boy would find her in Terrabithia, although that would forever tie him to childhood... or something even worse :smile34:
