Holidays! It's time for drama (and movies) :DDD


Currently catching this 2006 drama: Maiden's Vow, starring Charmaine Sheh and Joe Ma
Interesting drama as it spans out the life of women from 4 different generations from 1880 to 2006
Stories for the first two generations are depressing ;_; but it got more comedic from third generation onwards luckily. I've yet to reach 4th generation :/
Charmaine won "The best actress" award with this drama in 2006

However not recommended to people who always want a happy ending, this drama doesnt have a happy ending I think.


NEXT, I WANT TO CATCH THIS SHOW, Departures. It's coming out in 5 March 2009
Shall catch it with gekka muhaehea
Actually i also want to catch slumdog. lol. but i guess this come first >=D

Film info:
Daigo Kobayashi (Masahiro Motoki) is a devoted cellist in an orchestra that has just been dissolved and now finds himself without a job. Daigo decides to move back to his old hometown with his wife to look for work and start over. He answers a classified ad entitled "Departures" thinking it is an advertisement for a travel agency only to discover that the job is actually for a "Nokanshi" or "encoffineer," a funeral professional who prepares deceased bodies for burial and entry into the next life. While his wife and others despise the job, Daigo takes a certain pride in his work and begins to perfect the art of "Nokanshi," acting as a gentle gatekeeper between life and death, between the departed and the family of the departed. The film follows his profound and sometimes comical journey with death as he uncovers the wonder, joy and meaning of life and living.
