The Other Boleyn Girl

Yesterday, I went out ... to civilization. >.<
Our lecturer moved the Friday 4-6pm lecture slot to 2.30-4pm due to great demand from the class. And that, gave us an opportunity for an impromptu movie at 4.45pm! I was a little apprehensive at first since it was Day10 which means my neutrophils are starting to go down and thus my immune system may not be strong enough to be exposed to crowds at a shopping mall.
BUT I so wanted to go watch a movie, plus it's a weekday (although Friday) afternoon. Should have less people. Decided to go ahead and 4 of (Thunder, Swei, Bird and I) flagged a cab right after lecture and off we went to Vivo City :) (haven't been to VivoCity the whole semester!)
Watched "The Other Boleyn Girl". There were only about 10 people in the cinema, which was great! HaHa.. 4 of us had a whole row to ourselves :)
Saw the trailer on YouTube a while ago when I was telling Swei about "Atonement" and she felt that the sibling rivalry is rather the same as in this new movie. Even checked out Rotten Tomatoes at that time for its rating which was not too good; only about 30+% while Atonement's was way higher.


Anyway, the movie was rather good. It felt like a long movie but it was just nicely 2 hours. The actresses were good; besides the 2 leads, the one who played Queen Catherine and the one who played the mother of the Boleyn girls were great as well.
I think Scarlett Johansson is really pretty in this show! I never thought of her as pretty. I think Natalie Portman is pretty although I do not particularly like her but Scarlett was really pretty in this show. Looks better in motion than in pictures, I feel...

The guys in the show are quite pathetic though.. The King... sigh.. The Boleyn brother...double sigh! and the Boleyn father.... zzzz...

Talking about movie, I watched 3 movies on HBO during that 5-day NUH week. HaHa. Instead of studying on Monday while waiting to be CT Scan-ed, I watched "The Hitcher". Typical thriller + chick-flick but rather intense and thus captured my attention for that nearly 2 hours I was drinking the yellow contrast thingy...

I like Sophia Bush in One Tree Hill and I like her in "The Hitcher". Pretty.

Then, on the long chemo Wednesday, I watched "The Weatherman" by Nicholas Cage. Funniest thing in the movie is how he always get thrown at with fast food. McNuggets, sundae, apple pie!
That was followed by "My Best Friend's Wedding"! An old movie but I never successfully finished watching it. All I ever could remember was the airport scene and I think that's like the earliest scene in the movie. Finally, I finished watching it and it's nice!


Nice song :)
