Today's movie proposal: She said maybe, from Netflix

Published on September 21, 2025 at 4:54 PM

Today I'm going to tell you about the latest film that has had an impact on me in some way.
Right now, I'm on a Turkish kick: I want to learn a few Turkish words and, as I shared in my last blog post, I want to try lots of Turkish recipes, especially desserts.
I've already made Baklava, but it needs some improvement.. Dolma, grape leaves stuffed with meat and rice, is another thing I'm eager to try and share with you.
Today I'm going to talk about my last favorite romantic comedy: Netflix movie “She Said Maybe!”
For now, it portrays the connection between many young people of Turkish origin living in Germany, and this connection will take a young couple to their parents' homeland, Turkey.
From the beginning, I was captivated by the vibrant colors and stunning landscapes, something you expect in romantic comedies and that keeps you glued to the screen so you don't miss a single scene.
Then, of course, there is the story of the roots of a wealthy family from Istanbul, with all its glamour, parties, and luxurious hotels, and the central plot: losing the love of your life for a million-dollar inheritance. Is it “worth all the money in the world”? Why did I write this sentence? If you want to know the reason, you'll have to watch the movie, because I can't tell you everything, right?

Why did I write this sentence? If you want to know why, you'll have to watch the movie, because I can't tell you everything, right?
And, of course, the landscapes, colors, and music chosen for the film have a certain je ne sais quoi that is undoubtedly an integral part of a film that captivates me: its soundtrack.
In this case, it left nothing to be desired. In one of the most impactful moments, we hear a beautiful song, sung in a soft voice: “Ocean” by Alice Phoebe Lou.
I'll share the rest of the songs here, all of which are simply stunning and perfectly suited to the film.

Hoje vou falar-vos sobre o mais recente filme que, de alguma forma, teve impacto em mim.
Neste momento, estou numa onda turca: quero aprender algumas palavras turcas e, conforme já partilhei no meu último blogue, quero experimentar muitas receitas turcas, sobretudo doces.
Já fiz a Baklava, mas precisa de ser aperfeiçoada. O Dolma, folhas de videira recheadas com carne e arroz, é outra das coisas que estou desejosa de experimentar e partilhar convosco.
Hoje vou partilhar os meus comentários sobre o filme da Netflix: "She said maybe!".
Para já, retrata a ligação de muitos jovens de origem turca que vivem na Alemanha e essa ligação levará um jovem casal de namorados á terra dos seus pais é a Turquia.
Desde o início, que me cativaram as cores vibrantes e as paisagens deslumbrantes, algo que se espera nas comédias românticas e que nos prende ao ecrã, para não perdermos nem uma sequência.
Depois, claro, há a história das raízes de uma família abastada de Istambul, com todo o seu glamour, festas e hotéis luxuosos, e o esquema central: perder o amor da vida por uma herança milionária. Será que "vale todo o dinheiro do mundo"? Porque escrevi esta frase? Quem quiser saber o motivo, terá de ver o filme, pois não posso contar tudo, certo?
E como não podia deixar de ser, as paisagens, as cores e a música escolhida para o filme têm um certo "je ne sais quoi" que, sem dúvida alguma, faz parte integrante de um filme que me cative: a sua banda sonora.
Neste caso, não deixou nada a desejar. Num dos momentos mais impactantes, ouvimos uma canção linda, com uma voz suave: "Ocean", de Alice Phoebe Lou.
De resto, partilho aqui as restantes músicas, todas elas simplesmente deslumbrantes e completamente bem adaptadas ao filme.
