Pieces of April was pretty good!!!
"Pieces of april" charts the trip of a dysfunctional family to a Thanksgiving dinner organised by April, the eldest daughter. Throughout the course of the movie, the audience is gradually enlightened on why April's family hate her and it gets to see how much April wants to do something right for once. There's this super cynical mother who contracted cancer; a caring father; a goody-two-shoes younger sister who always tries to please everyone; a goofy but sweet younger brother and a slightly senile grandmother. It was shot with a hand camera or something cos the images are quite unstable sometimes but this lends reality to the film. After watching it i went home and gave my mother a big hug.
My cousin's 21st birthday celebration was quite enjoyable....i talked to my another cousin Benjamin for the longest time. I think this is like the 2nd time that i'd ever talked to a guy for so long. Which was good....i kinda found out that guys are quite easy to talk to actually...so yeah, that's great. Uncle Ron was farnie as usual. When we went to collect the birthday cake (which was a
HUGE one by the way), he told the shopkeepers that the cake was for him. He said he was 21 "minus my woking days and all the holidays". The shopkeepers were very nice and joked with us as well....so gao xiao!
Wanna watch "Taking Lives" which stars Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie. Johnny Depp's got another show out soon called the "Secret Window" and it looks suspiciously similar to an ealier movie of his called "The Ninth Gate"... Anyways, Johnny Depp's one cool dude and i wouldn't miss seeing him on the big screen for nothing. =D
