  Your Name Engraved Herein 2020

  ★★★★ Watched 23 Dec 2020

  Same gender marriage was once banned in Taiwan, leading people at that time to suffer from their sexual orientation. This film captured  
  the simplicity of love, the beauty of youth but also the pain of being unaccepted.

  2001: A Space Odyssey 1968

  ★★★½ Watched 13 Sep 2019

  This is no doubt a masterpiece, a scientific-fi classic. Nowadays, not so many films of the same genre can exceed its great achievement. The cinematography and music were outstanding. However, what the story tried to convey was vague. Maybe everyone can have their own understanding but also have no understanding.

  Us and Them 2018

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Aug 2018

  Personally think it’s the no dancing and singing but more cruel and real version of la la land. Talking about a sweet couple worked and supported each other at seemingly to be the darkest moment in their life but ending up in breaking up and somehow a part of their heart was gone with the other one.
  Like the cinematography, intertwining the colourful and black-and-white scenes to represent not only the time but also the meaning of their emotions (finally realised the why they use this way to represent in the later part of the film).
  Really touched film but with definitely certain amount of sadness

  Her 2013

  ★★★★ Watched 23 May 2018

  To me, this could be one of the most worrying present question. Our technology seems to bring more covenirce to our life but it also creates more challenges about humanity. When AI is made super close to human being, how do human beings interact with AI and others? 
  We have no time to think about this issue throughly and then face the world change. But hopefully, we won’t get lost in the maze we created.
