Starling Lines

I got to watch a real cute movie the other day with Melissa McCarthy and Kevin Kline. It was called the "The Starling." And although there wasn't a ton to recommend it, Melissa McCarthy is so cute and fun that she can just about turn even a stinker movie into a winner. 

There was one moment though, . . . almost two, that got me.

The first one was when Kevin Kline says to Melissa McCarthy:

"Sometimes we push people away just to see if they will come back."

I liked that line. It would have been a little better had it been. 

People don't always push others away cause they don't like them or stop caring for them. Sometimes they push them away just to see if they'll come back.

I think that's a little better. 

then there was the line that Melissa McCarthy uses, and that is the theme of the movie:

"You can't move past someone or something until you recognize that some things are just out of your control."
