Wild Tales is a 2014 Spanish movie. It's a sequence of six short stories, all of which portraying the plight of humans who are cornered in life due to different reasons in different circumstances. The violent way humans responds to their conditions, to the injustice done to them and to the loneliness they endured in their suffering.
While all the six stories are great, the one that I loved most is the sixth one in which the bride Romina violently rebelled against her finding that he groom Ariel had cheated on her and had invited the same woman to their wedding. This is one of the strangest rebellion I've been aware of. She can't accept the reality and starts yelling at Airel about how she's going to torture him throughout the life she is going to have with him. The violence, however, dissipates itself and leads to a reconciliation that re-ignite the love between the couples. They start their life immediately in the hall, in front of the startled audience, who hastens to leave before the couple starts make love.
Love is choosing. Choice is violence. To love someone is to choose him or her in lieu of everything else. Love is a kind of violence, a rebellious violence.
