The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

I recently watched this film, although I think that the storyline or plot was not very strong it was  a beautiful film. I love the strong friendship between the four girls as they were always there for eachother even when they were having their ups and downs. The most interesting thing about this film is that it expresses itself in many ways and not just Romance and love stories. Each friend always go through something different and believe it or not only one out of the four finds love.
Lena - Shy and quiet went to Greece for the summer and fell in love. I think this was the warmest story out of all four friends. It was very sweet and magical in a way as well, this was my favourite friend story - they fought till the end.
However, I think that the pants do not bring magic or miracles to all friends, although I would like to believe it does but I really can't. Everything that happens could be due to coincidence, the nature of how one person has affected another to change - leading to the endings that were meant to be.
Carmen had to be the character that had the worst heartbreak, neglected by her father who left her when she was young making her throw a rock through the windo as a result to show how angry or upset she was.
Bridget's mum passed away when she was a young child, I believe that she misses her dearly and to help her forget she would try to divert her attention elsewhere, so through boys. I guess she is rather pretty therefore also being a flirt helping her get what she want. She realises this at the end, and what better then expressing your feelings to your best friends.
Tibby, the weird one. Met a friend while all the others were away. Did not get of with a good start with bailey, but I guess we all get used to those hang abouters. They grew closer after Tibby learnt she was ill, and unfortunately they could no longer hang together.

What I really love about this film is the strong friendship bond that they are experiencing, they stick together through thick and thin which in life is probably the most non extinctable bond apart from love. Family, Friends and Love are the three main things we survive on, because we know without these life would not be as easy as it is now. However hard you think life is now, try facing it without these three vital life needs. That would be difficult!!
