Ok, nothing too poetic and lengthy before I leave, but i'm sure to miss the Jalan Kayu prata and mutton soup very very much, as with all my friends back here. But when you gotta go you gotta go...so goodbye Singapore, hello Japan.

See you folks in Tokyo. :]

Bernado Bertolucci's The Dreamers = People drinking, smoking crack and having sex. Those were the highlights, in any case. Going to wait till I have more brain juice before attempting to write more about the film. For sure though, its an immersive piece, with richly and opulently textured sets, and what I can say, more than your fair share of opulent, nude female figures.

One week to my departure for Japan, clammy hands, nausea, pre-nihon anxiety seeping in. To add to that, there's been little worth catching it at the cinemas, not to mention my having to miss Hellboy.

I pray Bertolucci's Dreamers will at least salve some of the pain before I take off.

Some pictures of my rented place in Meguro, Toyko, where I'll be staying. Big thanks to Mr Takeshi, my landlord of sorts. I like the big windows just next to bed.

Also, the Singapore International Filmfest website is up, is it just me or there are so few films this year ?
