				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Apartment is a simple story about a true love. I really enjoyed watching this masterpiece from Billy Wilder.</p>
<p>Like all romantic movies, someone loves someone else, here, Mr. Baxter loves Miss Kubelik. However, unlike lots of romantic movies, Mr. Baxter doesn&#8217;t try to own Miss Kubelik. He just wants to see her happy even if it costs him his job or losing Miss Kubelik. Actually, I think, this behaviour may be the only expected and accepted consequence of of loving someone. Sometimes, we think that we love someone, but basically, our behaviour shows that we only love ourselves!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rubby Sparks is one of the best romantic comedy movies that I&#8217;ve ever seen.</p>

	<img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center" src="http://www.cs.duke.edu/~zahedi/wp-content/gallery/cache/315_web20_700x500_rubby-sparks.jpg" alt="rubby-sparks" title="rubby-sparks" />
</a>

<p>In order to be loved, don&#8217;t think about changing other people. If you are alone, then the first thing that I would say is enjoy every second of it. However, if you are alone and you are not happy with this, then you definitely need to change yourself. You just need to think about things that you can change about yourself. This is something that can make you adorable and this is a way that makes people love you. Everybody knows at least one bad habit or behaviour about himself or herself, which, I think, could be a perfect point to start. So, if you&#8217;re seeking a friend to love you, make yourself more lovable for yourself.</p>
<p>By the way, I personally prefer the French poster!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Something important that I have learned during this short period of time that I am in the United States of America is to concentrate your efforts on changing the system instead of people. If the system is working well then people will change accordingly, but if the system is corrupt and the only thing that you are thinking about is to change people, you should know that even a perfect person is being corrupted by an ill system.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For me, the best movies are those that blend romantic comedy and drama. I really enjoyed Woody Allen&#8217;s last two movies, &#8220;<span style="color: #ff0000;">To Rome With Love</span>&#8221; and &#8220;<span style="color: #000080;">Midnight In Paris</span>&#8220;.</p>

<p>After watching sufficient number of romantic movies and considering my personal observations, it seems that you couldn&#8217;t find “true love” in our modern world. Today, when you hear that someone is “in love”, it presumably means a temporal, out of control, meaningless, and unreasonable feeling that might cause a lot of problems for everybody involved. Hence, in our cruel, soulless, and modern world, no psychological pain is “worse than the total agony of being in love”. Finally, I would like to quote “Love means exposing yourself to the pain of being hurt, deeply hurt by someone you trust.” from anonymous.</p>
