I love this movie. It is about everything i love. Books, movies, adventures, and the innocence of a child. Most of the all - appreciating the value and purpose of each of our lives.

It also strikes me that HUGO is also the name of the Genome organisation! Both search for the meaning of life differently.

In the end, we are only humans. It is the magical world of music, books and movies that coloured our world and lives.

Opening the universe to one and all - if we believe!


Spring Awakening

Spring has awoken. And it was an eye-opening surprise - for different reasons.

This is the first Pangdemonim production I have seen. I always applaud anyone who has the guts to pursue their dreams to the fullest. So i clapped with two hands and feet for Adrian Pang and his associates.

It was enjoyable but somewhat marred by the occasional inappropriate tittering of the audience. Not just the younger members but the older ones as well. The "mature theme" was clearly broadcasted but are my fellow red-dotters so "unexposed" or is it a matter of the audience not being ready for it? For goodness sake, the play was written in the 19th century and its already the 21st!

So perhaps the play was made for this little island - the issues being tackled and mismanaged by the characters remain as contemporary as ever. Despite the gap of over a 100 years.
