Passing Hearts


I can tell you that I wasn't thinking about the title being that literal when I saw it. As I got absorbed into this story I completely forgot what the title was. I was too preoccupied with trying to figure out what it all meant. I loved how it played out and set your mind to work out the missing information. My mind kept guessing what the reasons were behind everything. I had no idea why he was looking for so long in the mirror. I guess when I start watching a movie the first thoughts I have aren't "Why is he doing that?" or "What is behind that action?". Which I guess means I have a general lack of curiosity. At first I thought that a friend had died and he didn’t play soccer, because it didn’t seem right to play without him. It didn’t even occur to me that he had health problems. When he was attempting to make the phone call I thought hefelt obligated to talk to the family but just didn’t know how to so he hung up. I knew later on that it ws probably a complicated matter and had nothing to do with a friend because he skipped school to go to their house and didn’t tell his mother. I only knew it was a person who had donated him something when he went up to the boy’s to, not look at his stuff and remember the boy, but to find out more about who he was. It was a sweet story, and the kid did the right thing by going to the house to see the mom and dad even though it could have been bad because he didn’t know what he was walking into.
