Les Choristes
Les Choristes歌聲伴我心 (2004)
Director:
Christophe Barratier
Main Actors:
Gérard Jugnot / François Berléand / Jean-Baptiste Maunier / Marie Bunel
Feedback:
It is a story which could happen at any time, you might find some deja vu within it as we might comeacross teachers like clement who has 'heart' more or less in our growing age. It might be someone who taught you music, math equation and dancing. The image of a 'helpful' teacher is the biggest selling point of the film.
I can't help comparing it with Wes Craven's Music of the Heart, which is also focusing on how naughty,helpess kids being turned into talented children with hopes for the future. What mark the difference between the two films is that Clement was still nobody after his hard work on training the students singing on stage while Roberta became known to others and established a funding for further training the talented kids.
There are performance of the choir in both films, but the former film paif little attention to the audience reponse while the latter one highlighting the final stage performers which is what the audience expected.
In Les Choristes, the director does not portray a perfect picture in which every naughty kids can be changed, there are still kids who are hopeless and not easy to change. In Les Choristes, Clement left the school without any students running out of the classroom and hugging, farewelling He walked away lonely, leaving the audience a sense of longing to know more about his whereabout though we knew from Pepinot(who was adopted by Clement when he left the school) that he taught music for his whole life.
By the way, Morhange's little voice is so sweet that you might find yourself being occupied with it after the film.

Yuen Long with mum and sister
After slackering my morning in library and a two-hour lunch with Peggy,Rainsta,Lisa and Shun Him, I went to Yuen Long with mum and Yan under the hot hot sun.
I felt my skin was burning when walking along the Hong Lok Road.
One Fang was closed for a break ,so we had a tea time at the neighbouring shop--Tainwan restaurent.
Delicious sour spicy soup noodle and a cold Mint milk tea.
Shopped at thousand colour mall.
When we reached out the open space,it's twilight already.
The temperature was comfortable, people came out again, the summer night breeze was so good.
Mom insisted buying the Hang-heung wife cake.....and the shrimp additives .
Take the photo sticks with mom and yan.....
P.S. Rainsta,let us add oil together in Am730....so good can be stick with u for half and a month, I will be a coward if I was left to face them alone.

Finally hand in the ENG329 paper!!!
I was much more luckier as I had burnt my last drop of oil to hand in the paper before enjoying my lunch,after the lunch hour, sorry,all works couldn't be printed out.(the early bird always catches the worm)
Then taking photos with sea-dog, she's leaving LU this year, gonna to really miss her.
peggy was dozing off after the lunch hour under the suffocating atmosphere.
I was too when watching Ghost in the Shell(that means I watched nothing at all).
I drew a b-day card for dorothy, we had tea at Big Finger Restaurant to have the delicious tea lunch.($6 to have Dorothy's b-day celebrated,poor dorothy)
Three jokes:
1.Next time if you try to play a joke on someone,please make sure u send the right number or u will end up just like Waiwai .
2. Next time when u write a b-day card to somebody,make sure who 's the one being celebrated or u will end up like Crystal.
3.Next time make sure u are not O typed blood before u wait someone at a place full of insects or u will end up like me.....(11 places being bited)

A Happy Day
I saw old people lying there dozing, it's such a harmony community which reminds me the secondary school years I used to had in Lok Fu.
Me and Peggy.A piece of evidence that we really had gone to the park to do our research project on the park performers.
However, it turned out to be no performers in the park. The complaints made by the Tuen Mun citizens towards these performers are driving them out of the park which is a lost to the park staggers.
I used to heard musics echoing from the park while waiting for the 506 in on the way to my tutoring class in Melody Garden.
But now, in the name of protecting a small amount of people's right of enjoying their life, the government stopped the music without arranging another place for them to carry out their performance.No wonder Hong Kong is moving further away from its develpoment as a spirited and artistic city.
Then had a wonderful lunch with rainsta,peggy in New-way.
On the way to New-way, all of a sudden, we met PK Hui and his son ,his son is still as cool as PK.
Dinner night with Pineapple-orange,Mei Kwan and Bonnie.WE walked down the Women Street in Monkok wondering where we choose to have our dinner. The menu of Bing Kit COW COW attracted us and it hadn't disappointed us in the end.
In the end of the night, the crazy four of us went shopping in Monkok, we drew the lucky egg of Japanese toys-- Mei kwan was the one with a mouth capable of telling what egg you would took.(Thanks for the Keroro egg,so cute).
