Tristan and Isolde (The Movie)

Tristan and Isolde Movie Trailer - Large

Well I have been waiting for this Trailer on iTunes so I can write this specific Blog post. Now Tristan and Isolde is the classic love story of a gentelman named Tristan who is injured in battle and takes a funeral boat and it washes up in Ireland and he meets the beautiful Isolde and Tristan and Isolde fall in love with each other but they don't know who they are. When they part Tristan enters a tournament to win the hand of Isolde but on behalf of his Uncle. As you can imagine young love will not stand for this and they have an affair with each other.

Now most people think oh this is where you got your name from. Nah my Mom tells me she got it from the book all creatures great and small which was based on two novels and was later made into a TV show that you can find on PBS on occasion.

But anyways they made a Tristan and Isolde movie starring James Franco if you are to lazy to click on the link he plays Harry in Spider Man and Sophia Myles. But the movie comes out on January 13th and normally this isn't the type of movie I would watch. But hey I have seen the Opera of Tristan and Isolde a few times I might as well check out the movie to see if it has Merit.

I can picture a new generation of babies being born with the name Tristan. Just like when Legends of the fall came out there were a whole slew of Tristan's everywhere. Women having babies and wishing they had Brad Pitt's so they named their son after the character in the movie.

I always like to think highly of my name and like the fact that it is really original. But I guess some things just tend to fall easily into our laps. But I will be seeing this movie for the soul purpose of it being Tristan and Isolde. Perhaps one day I will get ingured in the heat of battle and wash up in a boat on shore to find a beautiful women that is wanting to be with me. But as they say. Only in Hollywood.
