Il Mare rants

June 25, 2006

Ok, so I watched Il Mare, and it was beautiful, although nakakdistort ng logic. Biro mo, yung girl from the future and yung boy from the past (depends on your time frame) tapos nagcocorrespond sila through the "magical" mailbox. Sorry nga pala kung nagco-code switch ako ah. Tinatamad na rin akong magsummarize, ang dami na namang nakasulat dyan sa net eh. Click mo nalang ito, para hindi ka na mahirapan.

Wala lang. Ang lungkot na sana eh, kaya lang nabuhay pa yung guy, lalo tuloy gumulo. Sana nga namatay nalang siya, hindi naman sa sadista ako...pero parang mas fitting. Tsaka sana siniksik nalang niya sarili niya sa mailbox, para pagbukas ng girl bigla siyang magpo-pop out na parang jack in the box at pwede na silang magsama. pero hindi nangyayari yun eh. sa cartoons pwede pa. hehe. This movie gives a whole new meaning to the saying love knows no bounds.

Kakaiba talaga gumawa ng love films ang koreano ano? Pansin mo, yung My Sassy Girl, Windstruck at Il Mare wala man lang kissing sin este scene. Not that naghahanap ako ng ganung scene. It's just that naging trademark na ng mga romantic films ang kissing scenes, kaya refreshing na walang ganun ang mga ito but they can still make your hearts flutter. aww, soo mushy.

Pinanood ko rin kanina yung Pretty Woman, and Richard Gere is überly charming while Julia Roberts is stunningly gorgeous. I dig Vivian's (Julia Roberts) no-nonsense character, she's very intriguing indeed. No wonder Edward (Richard Gere) looks at her that way - with amusement, respect and love evident in the twinkle in his eyes.

And I'm getting to be such a sap. Oh well. Gotta snore.

Currently listening to: wala.
Currently reading: The Catcher in the Rye
Currently watching: wala naman
Currently feeling: marsh mellow

hi! i'm a korean movies/series/celebs addict. hehehe! i must agree with you na kakaiba ang trip nila but i love all of it. you should watch other korean films. dami magaganda. i prefer il mare kesa sa hollywood remake na the lake house.

about the kissing scene, parang hindi kasi proper for them to kiss sa movies/series and kung meron man, maiikli lang talaga. weird kasi yung customs and beliefs nila.

and about my sassy girl, may hollywood remake din daw although i can't think of any celebrity na pwedeng gumanap.

ay napahaba ang aking comment! di halatang koreana ako haha! hilaw nga lang :)
