Hrmm... Let me see if I can remember what this here blog thing is for...
Oh that's right... Crapping on about nothing. I did warn people this blog would be like an episode of Seinfeld... 3 months of nothing.
So what have I been doing? Well, have been back at uni since early March... That takes up most of my time these days... Semester is nearly over... Should be catching my breath any day now...
On top of that have been doing the usual working, etc... Nothing special there...
Went and saw
Curse of the Golden Flower the other day... Good film, even if it is a bit depressing. Chow Yun Fat is a talented actor... If I didn't know it was him playing the king I wouldn't have picked him. He is quite a different leader compared to
Anna and the King. Poisoning his wife because she is sleeping with his son from his previous marriage. Just gotta love how some people deal with their problems, don't you?
In some ways, Gong Li plays a similarly bitter and twisted character as she did in
Memoirs of a Geisha, but of course wielding different power in that movie. Still, she shows that she can do the bitter and twisted role fairly well. Mind you, I can't say I'd react to the knowledge that I'm being poisoned in any other way - especially since her reaction is pretty much the only thing that she can do.
