One of my favorite movies of all time is Serendipity. I’m a
huge fan of the thought of destiny, and this movie flirts with that idea a lot.
It is a chick flick that takes place in Manhattan (another reason I love it so
much) about two people who meet one Christmas Eve looking for presents. They
fall for each other, but the woman won’t immediately give her number to this
guy so she writes it in a book then sells in back to a used book store, and the
guy writes his number on a $5 bill and buys something with it. She insists that
if they are meant to be together they will come across one of the numbers and
they’ll know. However they leave that night and don’t see each other for many
years. It isn’t until they are both preparing to get married that they can’t
stop thinking about each other and realize that they might in fact want to see
what would have happened. When all seems lost, the girl finds the $5 bill with
his phone number and the guy is given the book with her number in it by his
fiancé. It is clear in that moment that they are mean to be with one another. It
may sound cheesy but it is such a great movie, and emphases the thought of luck
with out looking for it.
