Translation / Leslie biopic
Three entries on one day means I'm obviously trying to avoid some work... I'm supposed to hand in the second part of my translation project this weekend but I just can't bring myself to do it.
I received a letter of admission from the Chinese University today. I'm delighted of course. I just don't know how I'm going to live on the days I have class. The univeristy is so far away. To get home, I'll have to take the school bus to the train station, change to the underground after 4 stops, change from Kwun Tong line to Tsuen Wan line in the underground, and then change to minibus. The weekday classes are supposed to finish at 9:30pm. So I guess I'll only reach home at 11:30pm!
Yesterday I bought a really weird VCD called Miss You Much. It's a Leslie Cheung biopic which is so low-budget that it resembles a highschool project rather than a movie. It seems to have no props, sets or real professional special effects make-up (The actors don't age at all at the end of the film). I kept wondering (and imagining) how everything could have been with a tighter script with a strong storyline and character development, with proper sets that actually look like what they're supposed to be, and proper make-up and clothes to show the time gap between Leslie's retirement and his comeback. It did make me want to try subbing it though, 'coz it has no English subtitles.
