Every year this time , a lot of up coming movies showing in cinema , to one extend that my schedule is full of the dates of the upcoming movies that i want to watch.
Today i spend some time at home watching the last independent movie that i have borrowed from my friend, " Alice lives here" . Sometimes i think this kind of independent movies should make known to public. It speaks the reality and it makes people think.
Alice lives here -
A small, unknown farming village in Malaysia, is the centre of an intense struggle against the powers of big government and coporation. The story of how the citizens of Broga fought the construction of the largest municipal waste incinerator in Asia, is told through the eyes of Alice Lee; a Broga villager. This documentary traces the change and political awakening experienced by Alice and the people of Broga-Semenyih.
A nice masterpiece ! Reveiled the reality of the ruling of our government. Some scene is quite sarcastic and provocation.

Kopi O Khau Sikit , Kurang Manis
My friend bought a few independent films recently....the films awarded for 2006 Freedom Film Festival [ The Invisible Children , Kopi O Khau Sikit Kurang Manis , Rainy Days , Twelve 11 ] , 2007 Freedom Film Festival [ 10 years before Merdeka, She is My Son , Bo Lang Chai ] and another one entitled ' Alice lives here ' .
She borrowed me and i have just watched the ' Kopi O Khau Sikit Kurang Manis ' a minute ago . Most of these films are about human rights and some issue that we Malaysian are not aware of - betul jugak apa orang cakap , orang Malaysia ni agak selfish lah, care sendiri je , kiasu dan kiasi !
Kopi O Khau Sikit Kurang Manis is a documentary about how much our Malaysian police love to ' drink kopi ' . I like the title so much .... hehe .... It reveiled the ugliness of our police force. Man, 1 word , i'm lovin it !
Should watch more this kinda film .... sometimes it makes people think.

My first play.....
My lecturer has always been mentioning about stage play. Well , I have not been to one before . I'm quite curious of how will a stage play in Malaysia looks like , untill today my first visit to a stage play in Bangsar Shopping Centre, The Actor Studio.
All in all, i enjoyed the play. Well, it cost me RM22 for the play, no matter what also have to enjoy it lar ! Haha....it was really a nice play, honestly . The storyline was interesting . I'm very impressed with how the director actually brought the flow of the whole act and the storyline. The director brought the whole senario on the stage and as though it happened vividly in front of the audience's eyes. The story line is clear and creative as well - though there was a small part that i do not understand. I guess it is too creative that this donkey could not understand !
** Went with a few friends of mine ....
Well , BSC is definitely a high end place - we can't find any cheap food for lunch. All they have are Chilis, DOME, some other classy restaurants and pub .... well, we ended up having our lunch at Delifrance. Haha, don't mention it , i spend RM 22++ for my meal ....WOW! Next time should get my lunch before i go!
Where was i just now? O yeah, the play.... we were there for the ' How I Learned to Drive ' stage play by The Oral Stage [ to know who they are and what is it please kindly visit http://www.theoralstage.com/ ] . They always have new upcoming interesting plays . Go check out the plays , you might get addicted to it !
