Just watched “Remains of The Day” on tv, for the n-th times… I lost count :D … Still, I thought it was an interesting movie… kinda boring for certain perspective, who really wants to watch flash backs of bitter english butler’s life anyway, but the more I watch it, I was hooked by the subtleties. I don’t know, maybe if I watch Indonesian “sinetron” I will also find such subtleties.. hehe.. but no, thanks, I simply can’t stand watching teenagers acting up like adults, wearing suits and play managers and directors of certain great company… Ok, back to Anthony Hopkins movie… Everytime I watched it, I always felt that it was a new film, until I saw Christopher Reeves, still young, walking and making great toast about amateurs and professionals… creepy…

I couldn’t care less about the picture, the camera angle or anything as such, cos really, I don’t know much about that… I just picked up , after that n-th times watching it, the subtle and mostly hidden emotion inside each character… it was brilliant I must say… not because it was a grand drama we’re watching, but because we can really relate to each character’s feeling… very simple, subtle… well maybe it’s just me, but in general, how many times we feel helpless when somebody we love passed away, how many times we simply let life chances passed away, while we actually can grab it ? plenty I guess… everything was just muted emotion, subtle, and never outloud, as most things in our life is simply being thought but never said.

Next movie was “Russian House”, also touching, maybe we could talk about it some other time… or not… I’m so tired and sleepy now.
