Her death was haunting at first for me. I thought it was unfair. So much sacrificed just to die before getting to live that one adventure. It made me question the whole idea of living & dying.
Then the reveal: She lived so many adventures with Carl and that was all she really wanted from her life.
She doesn't regret she didn't have that one adventure because her life with Carl was the greatest adventure of all. She didn't die without closure. She lived the life she always wanted and wouldn't change a second of it...now she wants Carl to move forward to his next adventure. It was beautiful.
It was recently released in a local theater. I jumped at the chance to see it on the big screen. Big mistake.
Movie is way more sad than I remember. Artax was the obvious worst death.. but after seeing it in the theater, when the rock biter talks about losing his little friends... super sad.
I saw My Girl in theaters on my first "date" (like 5th grade, our parents dropped us off at the same movie theater and picked us up afterwards, but left us alone to see the movie)
I was not prepared for that ending. When he gets stung by the bees trying to get her ring back, and when she falls apart at his funeral because his glasses are missing....I was never so embarrassed to be seen ugly crying in front of someone before or since.
There are several fictional characters from books/movies/tv shows that I could list, but that was the first one that hit so hard.
It still f**ks me up how he never even had a life. Spent his childhood and teenage years with a family who didn't treat him well for not believing in their pureblood ideaology, spends the first few years out of Hogwarts fighting in a war, and his little brother dies (I believe that despite everything, Sirius loved his brother - he called him "soft", not "evil").
Then three days before his 22nd birthday. his best friends die and he gets falsely imprisoned in a notoriously horrifying prison for the murder of said best friends.
Escapes 12 years later only to spend two years living off rats and then another year trapped in the house full of his childhood trauma.
