Detroit Metal City + Antique Bakery Juz finished watching DMC on mysoju.com hehe. I think it's a very nice show about dreams... Lessons from the movie: 1) Your dream isn't my dream. My dream also isn't your dream. It can differ in beliefs, but respect it. 2) Are you living other people's dream or what you think is the 'right' dream, or have you truly asked your heart what your dream really is? 3) Dream gives us a reason to live on. 4) When you succeed in achieving your dream, there will be people around you to cheer for you. In the pursuit of your dream, it's impt to find someone that supports you. 5) No man is an island. When you achieve your dream, sometimes you are also helping others achieving theirs. Likewise, if you decide to give up a dream halfway, think of those who will be affected by it. 6)Pursuing a dream is a JOURNEY. When you begin the journey, things do not go smoothly. Sometimes, there are obstacles along the way. But these obstacles will help you to find out what you truly want to achieve at the end of the day. You may not get what you wanted from the beginning, but you will definitely not regret the journey but instead become thankful because now you know yourself more than when you began. .......... I also watched Antique Bakery, it's a Korean movie @ mysoju. I think girls will like the show. HAHA. It's the opposite of long and draggy soap opera style that Korean drama and films like to adopt. Everything looks like it is fast forwarded, just right for us to get the plot progress. Which is my style! Everytime I watch draggy parts of a Korean/Taiwan drama, I will watch by fastforwarding the video. Save time. Secondly, I like the message of the movie. You know I like to read deep into movies' messages...so Antique Bakery is about a man who had a terrible experience of being kidnapped when he was young, he survived the ordeal but this experience impeded him from certain aspects of normal life. For example, he has an unbearable hatred for gay men or most men. He also has an unbearable hatred towards eating cakes, which is an irony that he is the owner of the bakery. Also, he suffers from intense nightmares about the kidnap but it is always blurry and he can never remember what happened. And the end of the movie shows him making the decision to forgive his kidnapper, letting him go right before his very eyes....I thought that final scene was touching. Thirdly, I super super love the cinematography!!! The sets are brightly colored, very antique too. I think the film quality is super good or something. But if you decide to watch Antique Bakery, you may think how come it is quite different from my description....so just to say that the show is a COMEDY. Comedy with subtle message though. :) Labels: daily rantings 5:38 PM
