little mermaid

In complete relaxation mood....
watched Young Andersen.... taped yesterday from SBS.... before just taped it because its a period drama and abt the fairytale writer Andersen... expected something kiddish.. feel-good comedy....
But i was so wrong......
it was a sad....... dark piece that really explored the dark complexity of human character.... and the filming technique is really powerful... i was surprised... a movie from Denmark so beautifully done... almost like unexpectedly finding a jewel...
strongly recommended.... anyone who wants to watch it can ask me....*grin*
Thoughts drifted back to the Andersen fairytales i read as a kid.... and once i think in Grade 4 the whole class of us went to see a Little Mermaid play.... up to the scene where the witch gave little mermaid a knife and tell her to kill the prince so she won't die.... up on the stage little mermaid was struggling kill or not to kill..... while the whole class of us... (at least 50) all stood up and yelled: KILL! KILL! KILL!
i bet everyone else sitting there that day watching the play all got so freaked out..... grade 4 kids already so murderous....... and 50 of them.....
dunno why.... at that time we reali thought to kill reali made sense??hmm.....
but yeh...... my primary school friends and myself r all pretty decent law abiding ppl now.... so no need to sweat.....haha (everyone: r u sure????)
Revising Dae Jang Geum again...... its such a brilliant TV series!!! and so inspiring.... abt never to give up in adverse circumstances..... one of the most beautiful lines:
" 長今, 妳是那種即使放在雪地上 也會開出美麗花朵的種子 "
take care everyone,
