(Ivaine)

Of a young man called Tristran Thorn and how he wished to bring back a fallen star to the young woman, Victoria, he pined for daily. And how he fell for the star, whose name was Ivaine, in the midst of a search for the heir to the throne and whilst under attack from witches who wished to eat the star's heart.

Leyah (serferrant) | 291 comments I had this movie on for my birthday sleepover once. Just once. Sheeeeeeeeeesh, they all hated it. HOW COULD YOU? They obviously don't belong to the race that knows Joseph. I'm so glad you people, at least, do!

L | 1252 comments Some Quotes that I feel compelled to share..


"He stared up at the stars: and it seemed to him then that they were dancers, stately and graceful, performing a dance almost infinite in its complexity..

he imagined he could see the very faces of the stars; pale they were and smiling gently."



- beautiful Quote!

{As my mind lingers upon a certain face.. all I must do then is look up at the stars with hopeful longing and dare to dream!}


_


"no man can live forever, except he who possesses the heart of a star, and Yvaine gave him hers entirely."


- Quote that makes you wonder about immortality, the meaning of life and love!



_

Finally, Yvaine's thoughts are encapsulated exquisitely..


"..love is uncontrollable, unpredictable, unconditional, unexpected and unbearable!"


- Quote that states simply how, the more you love a memory the stronger it becomes.
