The story is supposed to be based on a French book and having read it I can say that it wasn't true to the original story!
I still liked the movie though!!
I saw it for SMG, and ended up loving it. I must say, I did not understand Sebastian's redemption, though, and I wish he'd stayed with Kathryn. But it was so beautiful and heartbreaking as it was, I really can't complain.
I love Cruel Intentions. It was playing on TV the other night, actually. I haven't seen the second or third, and from what I've heard I probably don't want to. The first was too good to top, I think, so they shouldn't have even bothered. It's weird, but I can't even pick a favourite character. I like them all, and they all just.. work.
cruel intentions is my absolute favorite romantic drama. i fell in love with reese and ryan because of this movie (and i'm not one to follow celebrity couples). you can image how sad i was when they split... but hey, it's all okay. the movie's still fantastic, it can still make me cry whenever i watch it, and they ryan and reese are still hot.
just one thing... let's all just pretend the second and third films never happened.
