before i saw letters on sat, i decided to get a taste of eastwood by watching one of his earlier films.
so i went down to video ezy(mjc branch) to borrow mystic river.
came back on thurs and watched it. after seeing letters, i conclude that eastwood films make you sad.
i saw million dollar baby the last time and that show was sad too.
however, while mystic river had a much higher level of tension throughout the show, letters was far from exciting.
i'm not saying it was boring, it wasn't. it was more like schindler's list. more sit down quietly and frown kinda show.
very engaging. well-directed. i'm glad i managed to catch the show(my resolve was tested in the process though)
interesting how he showed the different ways ti look at things like the war, the americans and the japanese...
now i want the soundtrack of the movie.
but i don't know how to get it without paying.
:(
quite a couple of soundtracks i want at the moment...everytime after i watch a show i always want some of the piecess that i heard during the show.
on my list now.
1. cinderella man.
2. road to perdition.
3. mystic river.
4. letters from iwo jima.
5. beyond the clouds.
6. the godfather.
7. shrek.
time to head down to hmv(mjc branch) to see if they got any of the above(althuogh i doubt they do..not so well stocked on music apparently)
