The Life of Chuck (film)
The storyboard is simple, but is told in a reverse way to unlock the unknowns. Not to mention it's encouraging. Strongly recommended!
Materialists — why love is easier than what we think, and dating is more risky than we expect.
When I was studying sociology in university, I learned a term called commodification, an idea of how capitalism works that even humans can be a commodity trying to "be sold successfully” to make a living. The latest movie Materialists focuses on love and marriage.
Savages (film)
Savage, according to Oxford Dictionary, is "a member of a people regarded as primitive and uncivilized". It is a plural noun. The movie shows a group of savages. But, who are savages? Those who live in the forest or those who are carrying out deforestation and urbanisation?
When the Light Breaks
It was the first time for me to watch Icelandic movie. When the Light Breaks is only 82 minutes long, which talks about the grief of a group of young people after their (boy)friend died in an explosion in a tunnel, when he (Diddi) was heading to the airport flying west to break up with his current girlfriend, Klana, so that he can continue his relationship with another girl he really loves, Una.
