Okay. I quoted a film title (originally message in a bottle) for my blog post this time. But I’m not gonna talk about that movie. I’m gonna talk about other movies. Just finished watching She’s The Man. Amanda Bynes played very well in this movie. Plus lots of refreshing sights of Laura Ramsey and Alex Breckenridge. I really like Laura’s hair. Her blonde hair was…..great. Reminds me of Elisha’s. Well, the movie is not an Oscar material, but it’s a good one. Lite, funny and like other teenage genre movies, it has simple moral messages such as friendship, trust, courage to go after your dreams, and of course teenage romance..;p. A very entertaining movie I must say.
Yesterday I also watch 16 Blocks. Bruce Willis and Mos Def were good. I thought it was just another action movie with lots of gunshot but like She’s The Man it has some moral messages too. I think the whole point of 16 Blocks is to remind us that people CAN change (if they want to). Even the ‘bad’ cop like Jack Mosley (played well by Bruce Willis) could get that ‘moment of truth’ and made a decision to change. He would have never thought that his simple task to escort a witness was a turning point in his life. Eddie Bunker (played by Mos Def) liked to say Good Sign in the movie. He said his encounter with Jack was not a coincidence, that it was a sign.
Made me thinking (again). It seems like every single event that happens in our life is not mere coincidence. Like there’s some kind of master plan (a script) for each of us. Life is like a big movie, where we all have a role we must play, from the moment we were born, till the time we close our eyes forever. This reminded me of a line from my friend’s blog… no matter how hard you try, if it’s not meant for you….you won’t be able to get/achieve it. And some people live their life unhappily coz they deny this. They don’t find happiness coz they want things that are not meant for them. The question now is, How do we know what our role is? What is meant for us?
It’s just a thought…only a thought…if my life is for rent…
Dido - Life For Rent
I haven’t ever really found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologise that once again I’m not in love
But it’s not as if I mind that your heart aint exactly breaking
It’s just a thought, only a thought
And if my life is for rent and I don’t learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine
I’ve always thought that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone and live more simply
I have no idea what’s happened to that dream
Cos there’s really nothing left here to stop me
It’s just a thought, only a thought
And if my life is for rent and I don’t learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine
While my heart is a shield and I won’t let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won’t even try
Well how can I say I’m alive
If my life is for rent…
