The Butterfly

Please let me know if he does. 😊 He went up in my eyes when his fan boy comments to Michelle Yeoh after she hurt her back encouraged her to go back to acting.

Apparently this was his major inspiration. It’s been awhile back but I think I read he might have used some of the music? It’s been ages since I watched KB so I couldn’t say for sure although this has my curiosity peaked.

Me too! There were a lot of questions left unanswered. I wondered about her parents too.

Treasure each moment. 💕

I envy you. My dad died several years ago. We used to watch old movies together. 🥲

It’s not long though it did drag in the middle. Maybe it was the beginning of the trope of forgetting to use the woman a title was named after?

If your dad likes wuxia this would be a fun one to see. So many of these old films didn’t survive to the present time. It’s a nice bit of history.

I’m surprised you could make sense of this review. I wrote this in a hurry last night right before falling asleep. Ugh. Found numerous typos and mistakes. 😆

Thanks! That is what I chose to believe too

These two were amazing together. Their body language spoke volumes. The question I have is did they finally consummate their love offscreen right before he left and was that his child?

I can't wait to hear about it! Looking forward to your review. ^^ I'll have to wait and hope it shows up somewhere legally on-line.

Zhang Yi Mou is one of my favorite directors. I suspect there were too many cooks in the kitchen on this flick. I hope you are able to find it inexpensively on Prime in your region. ^^

I rented it on Prime. If you enjoyed the part you watched you might like how they wrapped it up. I found it to be an average fish out of water and now the fish has to help fight aliens movie. 😄

Seriously, if there is going to be a giant monster we need to see it. All of it, not just the impossibly long tentacles 🐙

Thank you. 😊 It may be a little too perfect world but I found it relaxing, especially after watching a couple of very intense titles recently.

What an interesting article. Thank you! Older people have all sorts of personalities and traits just like younger people. Are still viable and vital. It’s always nice when they are portrayed positively and when they get a little romance of their own! 😀

Romcom 💕

I have rated many dramas below a 7 and I’m not new either.

I’ll deal with it philosophically instead of statistically-If everything is great nothing is.

The second half was entertaining. Really helps if you’ve seen the first one because there is no help in identifying characters otherwise.

Thank you. 😊. It does tackle some difficult issues. Best to be in the right mood for it.

You are very kind, thank you. 🥰

I ran across this movie on Prime recently and was intrigued. I was ready for a slower, artistic movie and this was just the ticket.

At first I thought the wanderer was what you are talking about and that could still be what the director was going for. I searched a bunch of sites trying to see if anyone knew for sure, but couldn't find anything. The drawing of Sora was what really sold it for me, a picture of his granddaughter shown only through the love of a grandfather. And if felt like she had an "aha!" moment when she saw it. When he looked at the house as he left it felt like he knew they were going to be okay. I might be reading too much into it. I suppose it's up to the viewer to ascribe meaning to him.

The treatment of the recruited student scholars sounded like it was brutal.
:(
