- dear adrian,
i've just come back from a general meeting of the polyu film club organized by brandon. it's lucky that i was there as i was very excited with the topic and the decision they had to make - voting for 7 movies that will be shown in polyu in sem b from the film nomination list (40 in total) we prepared last night. the results were not satisfactory for me but somewhat anticipated :
- rashamon (jap)
- all about my mother (esp)
- whisper of the heart (jap)
- made in hong kong (hk)
- three colours : blue (fra)
- pink floyd the wall (uk)
- boys don't cry (usa)
- i've watched only 3 out of the 7 movies : all about my mother (8.1/10), boys don't cry (8.4/10) and three colours : blue (9.1/10). it's really bad to see that my favourite movie of all time, the english patient got only 2 votes in the first round. i really wanted to vote if i could but too bad.... i'm not a member of the club. but generally all people who voted got good tastes for movies though their tastes may vary from one another. what disappointed most was towards the very end... when both hitchcock's psycho and pink floyd's the wall got same number of votes, they didn't pick the former which is definitely a horror/suspense classic!
brandon, you did a great job today. you did everything right and everybody was pleased with the process as well as the results. bravo man!
oh yeah final point, i skipped 3 and a half hours of lessons today. don't let my mother know or i'll die! just kidding....
anyway got to go now, see ya tomorrow night.
jason
