Rectoverso

Adapting a novel into a movie is not an easy job, I tell you. The magic of a novel is in the words, while the magic of a movie comes from its visual and story. It�s no wonder that there are many novel-into-movie adaptation do not work out. For me, �Rectoverso� is better be enjoyed as a novel instead of a movie. It�s actually a compilation of short stories by Dewi Lestari, one of the most well-known and highly-acclaimed author in Indonesia. I remember I had a chance to read one of the short stories in �Rectoverso�, and I recalled that experience as an amazing one. Dewi �Dee� Lestari had a rare ability to play with metaphors in words, and while the book itself has a sense of audio-visual imagination�more than just words��Rectoverso� the movie is not as good as the book.

So you're never regularly writing any reviews for months and suddenly you come up with a yearly recap? Really, Bar? Haha. The thing is, I am still on the same track. I watch movies even though I didn't really write any reviews (except some short ones I usually write on Letterboxd ) and of course I always rate the films I watched. But this year I'm trying something new; I will not only list my selection of last year's best films, but also figure out the best ones from acting, directing, writing, and technical departments. read more �

This is Park Chan-wook �s debut film in Hollywood. The most popular film from this South Korean director, �Oldboy� , is one of my favorites. However, I can say that compared to �Oldboy� or any other Park�s films, �Stoker� is much tamer. No blood, not even thrills. Supported by great performances from actors like Mia Wasikowska , Matthew Goode , and Nicole Kidman , is it fair to conclude that �Stoker� is not as interesting as �Oldboy�? read more �

Even IMDb doesn�t quite understand what ILO ILO means. The winner of Camera d�Or of Cannes Film Festival 2013 , ILO ILO is a Singaporean drama by debut director Anthony Chen that centers on a family living under the '90s economic crisis that hit most Asian countries. But, more than that, ILO ILO also talks about immigrant worker and how she�s involved in the dilemma of child-parent relationship. Its honesty in reenacting the situation is the key power that successfully brings ILO ILO to major critics acclaim all over the world. read more �
