I don't know if this is the 10th or 11th film I've watched by Johnnie To, I've lost count. Whatever, he never fails to deliver! He always has this tinge of exaggeration and an element of matrix in his movies but they are exactly what make me feel that the movies are uniquely Hong Kong. Blind Detective is not an exception. It may be as long as a hundred and thirty minutes but it is hard to feel bored throughout the movie because every little detail is worth pondering over! He ends the movie on an interesting note, even though the whole movie in general consists of many bloody scenes which really made me feel like vomiting just now. I like the plot! It is new and the way it is presented is very intriguing! I must say, though, that I think most of the credits go to Andy because he really acted very naturally. I may not rate it 4.5 like the movie reviewers did but I am glad to say it met my expectations and my two-year wait for the Andy-Sammi combi was not at all futile. Everyone should watch it!
I very instinctively got my tall white mocha frap without whip cream at Starbucks just now while discussing our research with YX just now. And then I realised I didn't get it with the intention of any recollection, the way I usually did. It didn't even cross my mind. It did only after I finished my drink. So... I guess things might be fading a little. The 'moment' hardly emerges anymore. Getting a tall white mocha frap without whip cream might have become a very habitual thing for me whenever I sit in or pass by Starbucks. It's good.
By the way, I had a sinful (but I was very 幸福 xing4 fu2) slice of raspberry New York cheesecake today. I think I am going to die of excess fats soon.
