a rain tree has to rain

it was the most amazing sight: rain pouring from a tree and a broken lamp post that still works.. (wait till i get my hands on the photo)

that was what we saw as we took a stroll down clarke quay after watching the screening of Smell of Rain.. how apt..

as we were in awe at witnessing such a supernatural occurance and contemplating calling the news hotlines, we saw a sign in the vincinity that read: Miracle, Biennale Arts Fest. BUT i checked the website and it says the fest would also kick off on 4th Sept this yr.. so can anyone tell me if what we witnessed was really part of the fest or a supernatural occurance?!? if that's part of the fest, it really cool.. if not, it's still cool..

now abt the movie screening... if there is one thing that irked me most, it's the sound design.. why is there korean dialogue when the TV was obviously showing a channel 8 show?? and the dialogue is the same in scene 2,5,7,9,14,20..... every scene that has a tv switched on.. at least haf the cheek to change it ok.. even tho i dun understand korean i still know that it is the same dialogue.. there no really no part of the sound design that i like.. non at all.. other than maybe some of the original music.. bad sound is really a turn off..

ok i'm an ebm student, i can never watch movies the way others do.. it really becomes a torture sometimes.. white balance, lighting, steady cam shots, continuity, jump cuts...... these things will inevitably run thru our mind when we watch something..
it's THE CURSE..

p.s. at least i think the male lead is cute.. and the female lead also not bad to look at.. haha..
