Good submarine movie
Hmm, I thought it was a pretty good submarine movie! Just a pity that after all the compelling build-up to their only chance of survival, the movie ends and is not quite resolved. And yes, it's true that the lead actress' talents were not shown at all.
The relationship between the two actors were also not aptly fleshed out through the flashbacks. It also seemed like much of the crew was too cooperative, and the weak attempt to inject a black sheep only failed to add to the suspense when his attempts to disrupt the status quo were quelled by the other crew members.
But overall, I was glued to my chair. A thumbs up. Just too bad for the ending.
Tong nian de peng you (1984)
Simple, straightforward and moving story
This is a simple story about how people manage to forge firm friendships and care for others even during the hardship of wartime. Simple things like the distribution of biscuits, which everyone looks forward to, takes on a poignant significance when life is austere.
But forty years later, kids in a childcare centre still rush for it when they hear shouts of "Come collect your biscuits". Some things, like the innocence of childhood and the treasured simple treat of biscuits never change.
Worth a watch.
