Hey! Have u ever bought & watched a dvd shown in black & white before? When's the last time u watched any show older than 1932? coz i just did. for 2 bucks. The movie's Scarface: The Shame of The Nation and is directed by Howard Hawkes starring Paul Muni. Oh.. due to censorship, the slogan behind had to be added.. an attempt to shame the mob and discourage support for gangsterism. An original classic and perhaps the most brutal gangster story then.. it's actually quite nice.. i'd thought i would fall asleep very early into it.. The best part of the movie is actually the realizing that how hard the directors had to fight censorship to get the approval to broadcast it. The history of these films is interesting.. many political red tape etc.. oh yeah, i also watched Fun With Dick & Jane. a comedy of a barking electrocuted dog and ingenious, devious methods of commiting robberies. i did my movie review assignment based on it. had to figure out the structure and breakdown of the movie and explain it in class next week. haiz.. movies will never be the same for me again. they're homework now.. well,.. i found the movie pretty nice coz it had a happy twisty ending.. argh.. i am such a sucker for happy endings.. melodramas make much better movie endings from a cinematographic point of view though.

tried doing up a rough of a storyboard for my trailer but i guess i might just wanna change the story again. the most difficult part is to choose a movie to do the trailer on. coz i hv to consider whether i will be able to shoot it with my limited budget(actually there ain't any..), equipment and actors..


i will keep trying.. winners never quit and quitters never win.. i won't give up just yet..
