10 Things Movies Tell You Are Normal (But Totally Aren't)

2. Getting To The Airport On Time To Confess Love

Classic cliché!! Basically... (skimming through the details) towards the dramatic finale of many Rom-Coms we see either the leading actor or actress finally admit to his/her feelings towards the other and rush to the airport to profess his/her love to the other before it is too late. However... Usually when this epiphany takes place, the person who is planning to board the plane is checking-in at the airport already. Yet they manage to be reunited regardless of traffic and security!! If that was the case in real life you'd be lucky to see the plane flying above you. It isn't only illegal to run past security (which says a lot about how useless security are in films), but what about your passport? Boarding pass? Temptation in Duty Free? 100ml liquid check????? The person boarding the flight must have had to do everything in S...l....oooooooo...www... M......ooooo...t....i...ooo....n......!! An impossibly romantic situation!

As a one-of-a-kind twenty-something film fanatic and culture vulture... I have a 1st Class Honours degree in English Literature with Film Studies & Media Cultures. Along with recently completing MA by Research in Film Studies, I aspire to be a film critic and yearn for the opportunity to roll around on the red carpet (with or without Christian Bale in his Batsuit). Always openly embracing films of all genres and nations, although anything Studio Ghibli related will always have a place in my heart. Believes normality is overrated!
