Written by jessiegirl, here is an excerpt:

Tyler reads to his hurt sister, his arm around her as she cuddles into the comfort of his love. Tyler reads about Orpheus:

“…to bring the joy of music to earth. His voice rang so pure and true that the fiercest warriors put down their swords and the savage beasts lay spellbound at his feet.” And Tyler’s voice rang so pure and true…

-“D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths”, by Ingrid & Edger Parin D’Aulaire. 1962. p.101

When it comes down to it, Remember Me is a tragedy. Not in an academic sense, and I won’t go into that quagmire of definitions. You’d be bored to tears.

Let’s put it this way. Classical tragedy in a work of art usually means the hero has a tragic flaw which brings about his downfall, like Hamlet or Oedipus. And, although Tyler has many flaws, none of them contribute to his downfall. For me, tragedy always depends on human intent and actions and their consequences.

Look, we recognize tragedy. We just know it, feel it. It pierces the heart and tears at the soul. And stories are breath to us; we can’t exist without them. Tragic stories have existed from the beginning of time.

But when we cry, and we do, and we should, we do it not only for Tyler, for his bereft family, but we do it for our own losses, and then we do it for the fact of Loss. Tragedy moves from the very personal to the universal, and back again. It encompasses everything.

Thanks again to DanielA for sending this in!

Jennifer Lawrence (I had to google her as well ) is in the UK at the moment doing some promotion for her movie ‘Winter’s Bone’ and she’s in today’s The Herald magazine and she mentions Twilight, Rob and Remember Me. The article says:

“She’s read all the JK Rowling books. Twice. “I’m a sucker for all those things. If I know something about the UK, it’s because of Harry Potter,” she says. “And then I got hit by the Twilight train. I think it’s a female thing. There’s some sort of chemical there.” In truth it’s a Robert Pattinson thing, the actor who played Cedric Diggory in the Potter films before fronting Twilight. “I was immune to him until I saw Remember Me,” she says. “Now I’m daydreaming about him.”

Another one dazzled. I love that she mentions Remember Me !
