These are the movies worth watching for us, who deeply
appreciate arts or like international acclaimed arts movies, I dont
mean blockbusters.
a) Mrs Brown starring Dame Jude Dench.
She acted as Queen Victoria, who have a close companion called Mr
John Brown when she was still in mourning over the death of Prince
Albert. Their companionship was so close, she was nicknamed Mrs
Brown for this movie I guess. A must see, as this relationship was
played out as close, but not lover like, also acted by an acclaimed
British actress Jude Dench and for people steep in British history
and culture. Btw, anyone who have the VCD for this movie, I am
willing to buy at high price.
b) Il Mare. Korean Movie
This movie is beautiful. Set in Korea, its about a lady who moved
into a house, once owned by an architect who passed away. She
discover her mailbox is the channel for communication between the
architect who is in the past and her in the present. It started a
love relationship between both of them, and over the space of time.
Wonderful, and heart wrenching, as the lady discovered she is the
cause of his death, and struggle to write back to tell him to stay
away from the scene of death where he will meet his accident.
c) A Beautiful Mind. By Russell Crowe
Many of my friends find this movie strange and boring. But it is
actually a well played out movie about a man dealing with
schiznophrenia (did i spell rite?) and with the support of his
wife, struggles to climb back to reality ,and sanity. Talk about
strong bond between them.
d) Wasabi. International acclaimed yet again French Japanese movie.
Acted by Jean Reno and Ryoko Hirosue. Directed by Luc Besson.
Simply about a French cop who is a former spy. Discovered he had a
daughter 20 years after his Japanese girlfirend who left him passed
away. He flew to Japan to attend his funeral and to meet his
daughter, and also to discover his dead girlfriend has connections
with the Yakuza.Many things happened, and the daughter build great
bond with the father. This movie is damn hilarious.
Well thats all, anymore I will post.
