I realized I liked her in every movie/show of hers for some reason, no matter how cheesy it was. I don't think it's the Slavic blood that flows in both of us or anything, lol.

She needs to do something about the hair, though. Backcomb the hell out of it and she's good to go.

I don't know, everyone I personally know that has seen the movie generally views Fredrick just as I do; maybe the only negative comment I've heard would be about how he kept "bothering" her when she wasn't interested; so I don't see what signs he supposedly gave could have been misinterpreted for all those people to think so badly of him.
Oh, his movies are considered to be not emotional (that's why my brother loves them) but I say bullshit to that.
Ha, I should give it a shot, then. Probably won't find the novel, but I can watch the movie.
Now that is acceptable, because there's Mel/Dan victory in the end, haha. Okay, I'll admit, I wouldn't mind Dan/Katie McGrath that much (because I absolutely adore that girl) but that's it. I won't compromise about Dan any more :P
Oh my god, they do! Can't believe I never paid attention to it, but the eyes especially! That would be a strikingly beautiful family, too. I wonder what their parents would look like, haha.
August the matchmaker. I like it.

I agree with him on that. It gets really boring when you see them in the same type of roles every single time. But he looks so foxy as a soldier so it certainly wouldn't hurt anyone if he played one again.

Oh, I'm a pro as far as Windows Movie Maker is concerned, but I never tried working with Sony Vegas or any of those fancy video editing programs. And sadly, I only have one I favorited; there are almost NO Fred/Sho videos and the ones that are already there are not quite with the music I'd pick, but here's a good one:
