Rob and Mel, brought your gfs to watch the show liao? a mild tear jerker show i would say, given that sherlyn can still cry when watching with me, haha (seriously, i can dull the most emotional shows....thats me).
I got the show's eventual plot rather early (not that i smart but you guys should know that sherlyn's brain's left hemisphere isnt the best...heez)
I'm not condeming the show, but was rather surprised at Rene Liu's talent in writting this story, though theres rumours on whether shes really just potraying out herself in the movie.
Toying between fate, insecurities, distance and partnership issues in the movie, yet able to potray it without uneccessary tragedies or drag............a simple master piece. The impeccable combo of the 2 leads prevailed in many of the scenes. Even the backup cast fit nicely into their roles.
Couple of laughs to try subdue the sadness as the show draws to the end.......beautiful movie, neither the deepest thought provoking show nor outstanding in cinematics...........but just simple and 'sweet'
The show centered alot around Rene's hesitations in life, either in dreams or love. i happen to be reading an essay on "how we make life and death decision".......a scottish philosopher said, "Morality is more properly felt than judged of; though this feeling or sentiment is commonly so soft and gentle, that we are apt to confound it with an idea."
Is it better to save starving babies than to keep your dying partner on life support? To buy it now and 'eat grass' the rest of the month? questions we faced once a while though seldom as extreme as the 1st one.
i find myself getting more entrenched into my comfort zone and hesitating to move out of the shell even on morality terms; helping or doing something meaningful.........
well, just some of the thoughts i have while on 225 rushing home to my bed............
regards
Alex
