Dirty little secrets...

Watched a movie yesterday, it's called Adaptation, starring Nicolas Cage AND Nicolas Cage and Merryl Streep.

For me, it's not a story about adapting a novel into a movie screenplay. It's more about the two sides of a human being ---- the bright side (positive) and the darker side (negative). People who shows his bright side in normal days and kept his darker side to himself, we call them "good people"; people who does vice versa, "bad people". But this movie doesn't differentiate good and evil for you, instead, it let's YOU justify it.

Perhaps there is no absolution.

Merryl Streep acted as a successful journalist who wrote a breathtaking novel that was so beautiful and full of love. Nicolas Cage, while trying to adapt her novel into a screenplay, almost fell in love with her, idealizing her image as a human being with a divine soul and a love supreme in her heart. But only when his twin brother (I would be very happy to see him as his other side of his personality) suggested him to tail her that they found out that her life is full of lies, regrets, infidelity, and drugs. She even wanted to kill the brothers for knowing her dirty little secrets. Not so much a saint huh?

As a matter of fact, I believe, all of us have some dirty little secrets that we do not like to share with most people. And when it is not our business to expose them, we should let them be.

If you have a deep hatred or grudge towards somebody, stand in front of him and scold him face to face if you dare. Why bother to be like a sneaky little rat? Leave a comment here if you dare to! Coward!
