Can I also just say I am now extremely relieved that there was not a scene in the remake in which the parents had walked in on the teens having sex? That scene in the original with the mother standing on the stairway watching them for a good five minutes before going back to her bedroom smiling to herself has got to be one of the strangest and most uncomfortable things I’ve witnessed in a while.

The original movie might have done a slightly better job of making the passions come alive, but maybe that’s because its plot twists were so unexpected and because it was dealing with far darker story elements. Also, this version of Jade seems like a more well-rounded, unspoiled young woman with a bright head on her shoulders than Brooke Shields’ airhead character was. Spoiler: David isn’t the creep who sets fire to the family’s home and spends years locked up in an insane asylum as a result. Secondly, the remake does a good job of making the main characters more likable.
It never bothered to show you how they met or why they fell in love – it just expected you to not question any crucial story elements at all and to just go with it. For starters, they actually give us a story arc to work with whereas the original just threw these majorly undeveloped characters at you and told you they were madly in love. They actually give us a story arc.Īlthough this is technically a remake, this version of Endless Love is a far cry from the original. This version of Endless Love is a far cry from the original. The two get to know each other better and embark upon a whirlwind romance that moves more rapidly than Jade’s rich, somewhat conservative parents (especially her father, played by Bruce Greenwood) would like. Apparently David has been watching Jade from afar, though she never knew it because she’s been socially withdrawn since the sudden death of her older brother several years earlier. The movie begins with the two just graduating from high school. Starring Gabriella Wilde and Alex Pettyfer as star-crossed, doey-eyed lovers Jade Butterfield and David Elliot, Endless Love is about two teens who fall madly in love with each other with the reckless abandon that can only be found in youth, much to the concern of their parents. And if you want my honest opinion, I think I actually prefer the remake because the original movie was just too bizarre and pointless with its plot for my tastes (but I’ll harp more about that later). I had never really seen the original Brooke Shields movie until this week when I watched it on Netflix out of curiosity. Isabella and Olivia are also actresses.I’m not going to go into this review by bashing Universal Pictures’ Endless Love for being a remake of the 1981 movie of the same title. She is also "unofficial stepsisters" with Pandora Cooper-Key and Cressida Bonas, Lady Mary-Gaye's other daughters.
