2046 (hope no spoiler)

caught 2046 today. little bit disappointed. the first thing i noticed was that Tony Leung's voice had been dubbed over. i always wondered - how do they do it? one of them speaking in cantonese, the other in chinese, and they're still supposed to convey the exact emotions intended? i suppose its a bit like talking to grandparents... but still, i feel a bit cheated.

and then the actresses - they are just too glamorous in real life to be in 60's hairdo. thought they looked ridiculous, but i guess its just me not being used to seeing them in that style. doesn't suit them ;-)

also don't think the whole sci-fi thing fit well into the film. all a bit weird, but this is not to say that the film doesn't have its merits. lots of nice looking shots that work well as photographs + good soundtrack. very visual and of course, you can't leave out Tony Leung. ;-)

anyway, did the walk from Lido through BG, to SMU then did 20 laps at the pool. i'm getting used to this routine. it's really good. so if anyone wants to join me after their crazy marking, etc period, let me know. it will be fun.
