No, Tom Hanks does not appear in the film Notting Hill. The film stars Hugh Grant, Julia Roberts and Richard McCabe.
The story was entitle "Dead Stars" to symbolize the love Alfredo had for Julia. At night, we see the light of numerous stars but what we don't know is that some of the stars are already dead. When stars are die, their glow diminishes then eventually vanishes. But for us on earth, it would take a long time for that to happen (consider the light-years it take for the light of stars to reach our planet). In the context of the story, Julia was Alfredo first love, thus young love. All along, Alfredo thought that he loves Julia but at the moment when Alfredo stares at Julia and touches her hand (last paragraphs), he realizes that the feeling has gone. Yes, he fell in love with Julia but his love wasn't something really serious and as I've said earlier, it was young love. It took him a long time to realize that he had no more feelings for Julia.
Alfredo fell in love with Julia the night he met her at a dinner party. This occurred eight years prior to his re-encounter with her, when he realized he no longer had the same feelings for her.
Alfredo chose Esperanza over Julia Salas.
The persona of the dead stars in the story "Dead Stars" by Paz Marquez Benitez is Alfredo Salazar. He represents a man torn between his duty to his fiancée, Esperanza, and his feelings for another woman, Julia Salas. Alfredo's internal conflict and indecisiveness form the central theme of the story.
The irony in "Dead Stars" lies in the contrast between the idealized notions of love and romance that Alfredo holds onto for years, only to realize their impermanence and the disappointment that comes with it. The title itself, "Dead Stars," symbolizes the extinguished passion and unattainable dreams Alfredo clings to, highlighting the irony of his pursuit of an unachievable ideal.
