Norwegian Wood.. Shh!

Source: blog.goo.ne.jp

Catching a movie is a good break away from the rallies. Away from angsty, angry, rallying people.

The movie's based on a novel by Haruki Murakami. Shall not summarise the story because the story's best read in detail. Movie-wise, it was a decent film adaptation.

But do, do watch it at home.

The film's a quiet film. A lot of silences. A lot of pauses. A few landscape/scenery shots (Yakki kept going on about how beautifully the scenes were shot). Even the sex scenes, they were not the loud bim bam erotic type. More love than lust.

So, it was not enjoyable to watch it in an ill-maintained theater with buzzing ventilation noises and rustlings of popcorn bags and giggling teenagers.

Buy the DVD instead. You'll enjoy it better in the comfort and quiet of your home.

And by the way, all the female characters are quite kawaii. Even the older one.
