last nite went to dinner with vivian, and we went to a korean restaurant to have some really spicy food.. the food is great but it's so spicy that i had drink like 10 cups of water during the dinner...guess the water and the food just kinda got stuck in my stomach, and it kinda almost caused me to throw up...
what makes thing even worse, even though i already went to the restroom three or four times b4 we left the place, just right after i got into my car, i already ...Read more
If you are asked to choose a film character that best represents you, who would that be?
I have been rewatching "In the Mood for Love" and I suddenly feel like recently, I am so much like Chow Mo wan (Tony Leung).. No, I am not as handsome or cool as him, and I am not married, but the way he thinks, what he is doing, just reminds me so much of what i have been going through in recent years...people who know me well probably understand what i am saying...
If i am standing in fron...Read more
最近幾天一直都在追看有關四川地震的新聞﹐每一段報道都是這樣令人動容﹐每一張照片都讓人感到痛心。
已經捐錢了﹐也向身邊所有人呼籲﹐可是心裡仍然欠缺踏實﹐總覺得沒能做到什麼。
看到一幕幕捨身取義的故事﹐只有感動﹐生命雖然消逝了﹐但是仍然閃耀著人性的光輝。好像以下一段報道﹐看完後我是真的熱淚凝眶﹐差點掉下眼淚(沒有誇張...)。
"搶救人員發現她的時候，她已經死了，是被垮塌下來的房子壓死的。透過那一堆廢墟的間隙，可以看到她死亡的姿勢：雙膝跪著，整個上身向前匍匐著，雙手扶著地支撐著身體，有些像古人行跪拜禮，只是身體被壓得變形了。
救援人員從廢墟的空隙伸手進去，確認她已經死亡，又衝著廢墟喊了幾聲，用撬棍在磚頭上敲了幾下，裏面沒有任何回應。當人群走到下一個建築物的時候，救援隊 長忽然往回跑，邊跑邊喊“快過來”。他又來到她的屍體前，費力地把手伸進女人的身子底下摸索，摸了幾下，他高聲喊“有人，有個孩子，還活著”。
經過一番努力，人們小心地把擋著她的廢墟清理開，在她的身體下面躺著她的孩子，包在一個紅色帶黃花的小被子裏，大概有34個月大，因為母親身體的庇護，他毫發未傷，抱出來的時候，他還安靜地睡...Read more

went to see "Mongol" today at the SFIFF, couldn't believe that a 2pm screening on weekday was a a full house, guess the oscar nomination definitely helped a bit..
the film is fine, but not as good as i expected. cinematography is superb (beautiful landscapes) and asano tadanobu gives brilliant performance as temudjin (aka genghis khan), while sun hong lei i...Read more
Just wanna ask you guys a hypothetical question:
If you know you can't win a battle (the chance of winning is perhaps less than 1%?), will you still fight?
一個假設性問題想問大家:
如果有一場明知不能勝出的仗(勝出機會可能低於1%)﹐你會不會去打?
btw, i just went to see Big Man Japan at SFIFF, and it is definitely one of the most bizarre yet captivating films i have seen in a while, definitely worth to take a look for fans of japanese monster and ultraman films!
SFIFF began last week and there are quite a lot of films I wanted to watch:
Alexandra (enjoyed Sokurov's Russian Ark and the Sun)
Big Man Japan
The Man From London
Mongol (Tadanobu Asano as Genghis Khan)
Still Life (have seen it several times on DVD but wanna see it on the big screen)
Umbrella
Up the Yangtze
Warlords (saw it at Castro! nice! but too bad it is a shorter version 17mins shorter than the dvd i saw)
this year no hk filmmakers come...Read more
Not sure if you guys know that there was a protest at CNN office in San Francisco yesterday. About 2000 people attended the protest, which lasted for more than three hours. The crowds were gathering outside CNN's office and packed the street corners. They were basically asking for an apology from CNN and the firing of the commentator Jack Cafferty.
I am not sure if this is good news material, but as a local news media, when you realize there are thousands of people gathering at the financial district o...Read more
