Brokeback Casanova

A love story that should not be told
Not for the squeemish or the homophobic
But seeing 2 guys make out is both
cring-worthy and yet sexy at the same time
so thats how i ended up with 1 eye closed and 1 eye opened
for the whole show ;p


even with a starbucks mocha valencia in one hand
i could actually feel the cold bealkness of Brokeback
Althou i think the feezing aircon played a huge factor
hmm


maybe it was an agreement between the movie studios and the cinemas
: *you blast the aircon higher when screening our movies soo that the audience can really experience the show..*
soo next time you watch a show about the Sahara
dnt be surprised to start sweating ;p
or feel ur feet wet when u watch a show about flooding
that would be cool
:: the ultimate movie experience
:: almost as real as being in the movie ;p


but that somehow seems to be cheating on the director's part
then it wont require much cinematographical genius to engage the audience
and to make them feel for the movie


But i digressed
like i always do ;p


I can really relate with the movie in a sense
i could understand how the extreme elements in the wilderness
can bring people closer together
its like when i go for the extremely tough treks
even though we are only together for a week
but feelings can be intense
not that i actually wanted to french dian liang or meiling at any point in time
lol
althought there were points of dispair
when you just feel utterly in need of human affection
to remind you that you are
only human....
when i really wanted to devour the person beside me ..
maybe i was just feelign hungry i guesss ..
hahahaha
just is highly likely ...


since im constantly hungry when on treks
I should go more often
its the only time you can eat as many chocolates as you want
and not worry about gaining weight
not when you are worrying if you can survive the next upslope ;p


Incidentally i watched Casanova
which starred *Heath Leadger*
(no i do not know how to spell..thanks you very much) too.
His persona was soo differnt in both films that I was ready to give him an Oscar at the end of the show.
but it is not mine to give ..of course
although it was a little cliche
a little disney-like-fairy-tale-ending
a little silly
but still
entertaining and sweet
awww..


maybe because we have all heard the storyline before
~the feminist falling for a don juan with
and the don juan giving up his philandering for true love..
yeahyeah
maybe we are all jaded


there was a report about how some korean art students staged a play
- a fake marriage on a train
aimed at inspiring people ~ touching their hearts
reminding them on the beauty of romance
there was a huge outflow of support for the supposed "couple"
but when the truth was out
the backlash was twice the magnitude
the koreans felt cheated and that the students should haev staged it at a theater or sumting...


Sighz
come on
cant they see that
their out pouring of support was a sign of success for the students
that they have managed to touch the hearts of others
and inspired many
that all the passengers on the train that day
have been touched in some small way
and their lives enhanced.
to have it played in the theather would not have the same effects at all
a waste


it is a pity that shows the closed mindedness of a society
the rigidnesss
the coldness
bah!


i wonder how would singaporeans react if it should happen here
probably they would react in the same way
but i sincerely hope that not all sinagporeans would be so
utterly void of imagination
that instead people would applaud such an amazing act of charity
that youths of today still would think of enhancing the lives of others
and only for themselves


i give my seats up to old ladies
yes
but my act of kindness
is nothing compared to vast amount of heart
that those stduents have
because that requires a differnt set of social conciousness
that great people posess


~a day of lazing but not a day wasted~ :)
