Memoirs of a GeishaI just caught Memoirs of a Geisha today.
Personally, I think the movie is ok only, a bit on the lengthy side, but perhaps it's just because the book itself is lengthy as well. I don't remember much about the original story written in the book to actually compare if there are any "
discrepancies". I guess I should find some time to re-read the book again. That was like 4 years ago since I read that book!
Anyway, I've always wondered why a Japanese would have blue-grey eyes, like, why I don't have?! I'm also Asian
what. The color of rain, they say. I also want....
I think that the gal starring as
Little Chiyo in the movie is quite beautiful. Must be a babe in future.
In other matters, I was crossing the road today and this woman was carrying a tote with a bunch of
dunno-what flowers protruding from the tote and swinging like nobody's business. I swear to God that the bunch of freaking flowers protruding out was about an arm's length and any non-suspicious person will get his/her face hit by the stupid flowers. Everybody walking past her was trying to get their face out of her way, like, "
siam" suddenly. She was like, STILL oblivious to it, and continued talking with her friend.
At one point, I had this intention to grab the freaking flowers and stomp on them, then apologize to her innocently, "
Sorry ah, your flowers just happened to drop on the floor, and I so happened to step on them. But lucky you, the cars have not run over them yet, if not will be in a sorrier state...."
Sometimes, I'm like so evil.
