The Departures


A magnificent movie which i had longed to catch since it came out. But didn't have the opportunity to. Good news is that Goh actually played this movie in class, and yay.. i got to watch for free :)

I like the fact that this movie talks about death and grief. how one should come to terms with one's life before death, and how one should come to terms with death itself, to accept death as a process of living, rather than it being an all-bad-ending.

In it, what i get is that dying is not something that should be avoided or afraid of. most of the time people would not want to die because they have so much things to hold on to. so much things left unresolved. therefore if you have something which you would want to do, don't wait too long. do not let the chance slip away and then regret about it

oh.. the cello song in the departures is superbly awesome. addicted to it now, together with another song, mei na me jian dao, another awesome song.


"the living eats on the dead to continue living. therefore when you eat, eat well"

God Bless~
