Outrage (initially was それぞれに)
Damn early morning seven o’clock only got Fire Alarm. Can’t the stupid hostel management do something about it? And then there is blackout. Damn it.
Watched “Duplicity” with Wayne and Raja and dinner with Yihfang joining us. Quite a nice film, some parts were a little boring though. It’s about this two spies who are on espionage duty and in the end realised that they were fooled by some random lotion. Or maybe cream. There is a different between the two.
People tell me Roberts is hot. OK lah. For her age, actually can lah. But she look like Sharon Phua in heels in the movie.
I got my 海角七号 DVD set and Piano solo already!!! I am so thrilled and elated. WOW. There is this 海角七号 doorsign, the seven letters, the DVD, some stamps, a Korean film festival poster and that wooden box in the movie. Damn worth it for that price. After all, we paid for its flight ticket, didn't we?
海角七号 was such a great movie. It was simple, no graphics and the tzai stuff in Transformers or Wolverine (which I think both suck), and it just featured reality, embracing lives. It’s a pity that China censored parts of the movie.
精彩有很多种类
单纯应该是其中最隽永的,也是最令人回味无穷的
不要迷失在自己梦想的伟大性里
而是自己先去体会它感动的地方,就像珍惜一颗微小的松果
未来它才有可能在自然中长出漂亮硕大的巨梧
坚持是个简单的事儿,却也是最折磨人的事儿
在生活中发现精彩,或许不易
但是倘若没有精彩,即便是有着巨富,也不过是空有虚表罢了。
Anyway, there is this new film coming up by this director, called Seediq Bale 赛德克·巴莱. It’s about this Mona Rudao 莫那·鲁道 tribesman who wanted to chase the Japanese out of their ancestral homelands. In the end the Japs put poison gas, so all die lah, haha. Something I like about this kind of “history” films is that, they always show strong loyalty and faith. It is the strong faith in the protagonists’ hearts that touches me. Think about Valkyrie, or the Red Badge of Courage. The character 忠, is a principle I embrace. And we should.
