MOVIES ALERT!

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN! these are the FEW movies that is a MUST WATCH!


1) Vicky Christina Barcelona

Two young American women, Vicky and Cristina come to Barcelona for a summer holiday. Vicky is sensible and engaged to be married; Cristina is emotionally and sexually adventurous. In Barcelona, they're drawn into a series of unconventional romantic entanglements with Juan Antonio, a charismatic painter, who is still involved with his tempestuous ex-wife Maria Elena. Set against the luscious Mediterranean sensuality of Barcelona, 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' is Woody Allen's funny and open-minded celebration of love in all its configurations.




2) Revolutionay Road

A young couple living in a Connecticut suburb during the mid-1950s struggle to come to terms with their personal problems while trying to raise their two children




3) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences.



4) The Reader

Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes star in The Hours director Stephen Daldry's haunting period romance tracing the complicated love affair between a German teen and a mysterious woman twice his age. Based on author Bernhard Schlink's best-selling novel of the same name, The Reader opens in post-World War II Germany, where ailing teenager Michael Berg has fallen ill with scarlet fever. Nursed back to health by Hanna, Michael eventually makes a full recovery and decides to thank his benevolent caretaker in person. Upon being reunited, Michael discovers that Hanna loves being read to and the pair quickly enters into a passionate yet clandestine affair. Later, after intense readings of The Odyssey and Huck Finn, among others, Hanna vanishes without a trace, leaving Michael heartbroken and despondent. Flash-forward nearly a decade, and Michael is a law student observing Nazi war crime trials. When Hanna wanders into the courtroom and takes a seat in the defendant's chair, her past comes into focus just as Michael uncovers the secret that will have a profound impact on both of their lives.



5) The Wrestler

This is a drama about an aging professional wrestler, decades past his prime, who now barely gets by working small wrestling shows in VFW halls and as a part-time grocery store employee. As he faces health problems that may end his wrestling career for good he attempts to come to terms with his life outside the ring: by working full time at the grocery store, trying to reconcile with the daughter he abandoned in childhood and forming a closer bond with a stripper he has romantic feelings for. He struggles with his new life and an offer of a high-profile rematch with his 1980s arch-nemesis, The Ayatollah, which may be his ticket back to stardom.

The Waterfall


The Waterfall


Refreshing it is,
Scent of the clean air,
Smell of greens after a wet night.
Heavy fog covered the grounds,
Too early for the sun to be up.
Picturing that moment,
Anticipating every step,
Breathing every little bit of nature,
Gave me shivers down my spine.
Journey to the top,
Was harder than imagined,
The view at sight,
Was everything i dreamt of.
Everything,
Perfectly positioned.
Marvelled i was,
The beauty of Nature,
and All its wonders.
I stood still,
Digesting each and every second.
For me,
It was this.
The gushing sounds of water,
Slamming against the rocks below.
The sprinkles of cold,
Hitting your face as you stood near.
It is then, I realised,
This is and will be,
My serenade.
That Beauty,
That Calmness,
That Unspoken Love,
That Waterfall.

The Dancer


The Dancer

Closed room full of mirrors,
Reflections of many sides,
Wooden floors made to smoothness,
and there, i see her glide.
I see the notes flying in the air,
Spreading through with so much flare.
I hear the beat penetrating the walls,
Waiting to soar to those who call.
I see her move with so much passion,
Love and satisfaction.
I see the glow in her eyes,
and all the light on her side.
I see a little me,
Waiting to break free.
