    saw this yesterday. rented this based on it's trailer - it looked like a romatic comedy, and it started out as such but then mid way changed.

    this movie reminded me of bitter moon - where the story explores love, both it's happy side as well as it's dark side.

    this movie starts out with two kids, one with an ailing mother and another a porlak from a poor family which everyone teases. they become friends and to make each other happy they play a game of dare. initially it's cute, then funny and as they grow older you see that they have something very very special.

    then the turning point when the girl can not distinguish if the boy truely loves her of if it's all just a game... then the story turns very very dark.

    it's a great story and well told, just not for the faint of heart and not for those looking for a happy ending. it is NOT like 'when harry met sally' as much as it seems so in the beginning.

    watch it, but be forewarned it isn't your typical love story.
