Years of Memory.

This time I'm writing about a film series that accompany us for years - Harry Potter. Almost everyone knew it, at least most heard about it before, the story it was a poor young boy received a letter from magic world, and how he fight with the very strong evil enemy and became the most famous wizard in that world. Let us rewind a bit, the first film was shown in 2001, this series became a decade long memory in heart. The last part of this film series Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows(Part 2) was released on July 2011, it was a sign that we  could no longer travel to that world again, as the poster of this said:"It all ends".

Though it sounded like a last train to Hogwarts, Harry, Hermione, Ron and other characters in the film were marked in our mind, they were like living in the mystery world forever, and we could just read the magic newspaper, they would pop out and start chatting. The best things of it is watching them grow up from eleven years old into a seventeen years old, we were like feeling how was it when they living in that world.

There were too many touching part in the last part: before Voldemort start to attack Hogwarts, all the teachers came to the ground in front of the castle, and chanted the incantation to made a protection, when the sparkle fly from their wands to one point of the sky, I couldn't help to cry, it like the last splendid scene since Albus Dumbledore was dead; when harry and Voldemort face to face decide to fight while the evil side had long-time experience with the most powerful wand, at this time Neville walk to the front and blame Vodelmort, he used to be a coward and supposed to be hide somewhere, but after he met Harry Hermione and Ron, he was no longer himself, he grew up into a brave person, knowing cowardice would not save him, he could sacrifice himself to exchange what was important to him. I could not remember all but I was truly moved by those things happened in a virtual world. There are so many vivid and lovely characters in the book, even the book and film were end, you don't know which moment they will show up secretly, and smile to you, then you start to cry, maybe it could be one of the reasons that it was best-sellers once.

I wish one day I could waving my wand, chant the charm that bring me to that land with Harry, Hermione, Ron...

You are the apple of my eye, I will cherish you into my soul.

You Are The Apple of My Eye to me is quite familiar because a bunch of my friends have watched, also the trailers and music video were spreaded everywhere.

I planned to watch it for two weeks but for some reasons I've done it yesterday, as what my friend said, it is not a blockbuster but for the 1980s' and 1990s' youth, it would remind you the secondary school life, which is the period of puberty. As many popular films, this is based on the novel of Giddens Ko, who is also the director of this delicious "apple".

Youth are always filled with romance and friendship,  there almost no exception for this type of movies, Chia yi is the typical good girl in a class, teacher's pet and the monitor, while the Ko Ching-Teng(also known as Ko Teng), the leader of his gang, play the role of troublemaker, due to a accident they were arranged to sit one front and another behind. Teacher asked Chia yi took care of Ko Teng, when Ko Teng did anything against rules, she would use her blue pen to poke the guy, so after many years the ink on the uniform still quite clear, it is the marks of youth also.

Chia yi normally didn't like Ko Teng, but once when teacher were finding the punching bag, she forgot to bring textbook, Ko Teng stood up for her and gave her his book, he was forfeited to do frog jump while raising the chair. Study is the main theme of this piece of music,but all the little things twisted in girls' and boys' mind is the every single note consist of the melody;)

They became good friends, time went by, after they took college entrance exam, they went to beach play water and have fun together because they knew it was hard to gather when they went to different places.

At the end of the movie, they are never together, Chia yi married to another guy, Ko Teng and his gang attended her wedding ceremony, it was like flash-back, when Ko Teng kissed the groom as he was kissing Chia yi, all the memory flash back, their youth their school life and their laughters...

Imperfaction is the sign of youth, it has flaws but its may become the reason you recall it.

The power of questioning.

3 idiots is a movie released in 2009, quite long time ago, but in  my memory it is still new and refresh itself every time I met difficulties, just told myself : All lzz well.

This is a story about friendship and romantic, very common topic, but the director and the screenplay writer add some 'spices' to it, made it stand out of those in the same genre. The name of this movie didn't mean the heroes were idiots, it was the short form of 'I'll Do It On my Term', three students from one of the best engineering schools in India strongly believe in this proverb.

There were three students from one of the best engineering schools in India, one of them named Rancho was a genius, he kept asking their discipline master about their education system. Was it a murder or a suicide?I was kept thingking about it, after a almost-graduated student committed a suicide because he could not finish the final project though it was a amazing design and need longer time. Before this Rancho saw his senior threw his design and helped him to complete, all the students started dancing and singing to cheer it, but when the masterpiece flied to that room of the senior, the carame showed he hang himself already, suddenly fell into absolutely silent. Two scenes became a comparision to hit the deepest part into your heart. This was also questioned audience about current education system.

The movie not only discuss those problems on the surface, some made us into deep thought. Hope u will enjoy it and understand the meaning of it.
