2 good films...

This is the 2nd+ week at work. not much OT in the past cos not much for me to do as i havent learnt tt part of the job yet... wanted to OT just now, but it was raining very heavily, thus din OT cos(by experience frm those who OT often) hardly any cabs would wana come in even "on call".

caught 2 good movies in the past week. Core screening of In America and a free invite to My Girl (thailand). a good movie will bring u thru the characters' ups n down, tears n joys and these both movies done tt.

however, after watching In America, i dun think Samantha Morton derserved an oscar nominee nod at all for best actress for her just-pass acting. but i think she got the nod cos it was a very very good role to play, with a lot of space to develop and show her acting talents, or her lack of it. she played a mother, inspite of being ill, despraetely wantin to keep her unborn child, cos she has lost one and nvr could forgive herself. her husband too... whn the elder daughter sang desperado, tears just flowed. till now, while recalling, i'm still tryin hard to hold back my tears. it was kinda like a despo call to her parents, after a year plus, to forget the pain n just let go, embracing the new life tt thy have now, w/out their brother. i think the kids who played her daughters in the film betta deserve the oscar nominee nod. anyway, the film reminded me of Angela Ashes, all abt irish families moving to the US for hope of a betta life.

My Girl, funny, sweet, romantic, n sad at the same time. the film reminded us something tt we always forget. always tell the pple ard you how u feel. lert them know your true feelings n how u feel, esp if u like/love/have a crush on them. if u have said, who knows something good might have happened. but if you did not, who knows the next time u'll c her is 20 years later at his/her wedding...

its stilll rainingggg... nice weather to sleep... hopefully i dun oversleep tmr... hopefully it stops raining tmr nite so i can OT... hehe...
