Hello people,
that's my short essay of the movie >.<
I'm impressed of it !
At First Sight (1999) – by Irwin Winkler
Love is such an invisible thing, you can’t see it, but you can feel it. The love story “At First Sight” was just a beautiful thing describe about love between the two different people came from different world. The story started from a blind man (Virgil Adamson), he after met a girl (Amy Benic). They don’t know each other but destiny bring them come closer, and then they were falling in love with each other. Their relationship portrayed in the movie, is pretty romance, it was like an adventure to build their love more firmly. I realize that love is always being there while we haven't got ready.
Virgil Adamson was a masseur but he was blind since when he is born I guess. One day, Amy visit him and experience his talent skills, she doesn’t know Virgil was blind at first time until she met him for quite a time. This makes Amy wondering how could a blind man got that talent, and she got to know him more. This should be the first scene that Virgil shows the power of senses. He do everything with his feeling and this is how he survive in his darkness world.
Love is one thing that we can’t explain; we can just go with it and put on our courage. Virgil is sightless, however he be able to see Amy’s beauty by caressing her face and feeling her soul. Hence, love can create incredible things;
it makes people want to explore it more.
The soundtrack of the movie, “Love Is Where You Are” had fitting well with the storyline. There is one part that Virgil was healed and he can finally see the world. At the end he was back to the history, he lost his sight again. Virgil was so in fear of being in the dark, is actually he was in fear of losing Amy. Sometimes love is confusing us, but we’re still loving even we know that we will get hurt by something. It was a trick on Virgil, a dream for him to love with a girl, and got him back at first place.
Amy is always belong with Virgil during the suffer time. That’s how strong the strength of love was being. Amy never giving up on this relationship, she was trying to rebuild the love again and again. Finally, Virgil he have no fear with this situation because of the love give him a little bit courage to cope everything that he worried. He realized one thing, you don’t know how wonderful the world is until you lost your sight, until you can’t see the world.
In Conclusion, it is not only a love story also an inspiration to encourage us to live a better life. Before the end of the world, leave without regrets.
