Love, without the fear of losing?

Just watched "Love of Siam", a thai film about 2 boys whose love for each other goes beyond brotherly love. Now, there was a part where the main actor said that his greatest fear is loneliness. Because, when you don't have someone, you feel so lonely. But yet even when you have someone, the fear of losing him/her, makes you feel lonely as well.

He went on to say, can you love someone, without the fear of losing him/her?

Can you?

Sinema @ Old School

Was introduced to this fantastic place by my brother John and went there on Sat afternoon. It was also surprising to see Kate there.

Now, introducing Sinema @ Old School. It's a cinema that shows local films ONLY. Now many of you might think "Jack Neo", but I beg you to read on.

It is a cosy place to showcase our country's own film and a channel to inspire young people like us to broadcast our films. I may not be a film maker (I leave this to my dear frens from New Media and etc,) but John and I are big supporters of the local scene

The film that I watched was 'Lucky 7', a film made by 7 different producers who each produced 10 - 12 min of film. Each film maker continues the next segment having only watch the last min of what the previous film maker made.

A daring move i would say. And, if you were to patronise this place, please, do not go with the expectation of a Jerry Bruckheimer or Tsui Hark movie, but rather, go with an open mind to have a taste of nice local flavour.

Will go there again.
