I just saw a commercial for one of those "heartwarming" hallmark movies and started wondering how realistic/ christian some of these cliche plots are. Is it harmful to dwell on these ideas? Are they selfish fantasy? Only worldly relationships? Anyone have any thoughts on some of the following?
the reclaimed love - A relationship that fizzled is rekindled years later. (ie Sweet Home Alabama)
the about-face - A hateful(or at least strongly dislike) relationship gets replaced by a strong bond of love after being "stuck" with the person for an extended period of time. (ie Beauty And The Beast)
the white knight - A charming, handsome, well off [usually]man falls for a poor, troubled girl and "saves" her. (ie Pretty Woman)
the forbidden love - Two people who society says shouldn't be together, fall in love. (ie Romeo And Juliet)
