My Thoughts about Departures
I guess I have nv shed so much tears in a movie/cinema b4... Cried till my eyes were swollen lor.. If I were to rate it, I give 5 stars! Some pics from the movie taken off the web...
Beginning of the movie is funny, n the story flow into the touching part. The burning of the casket brought back a lot of memories of my late granny, who passed away 2 yrs ago. I was overseas for a conference when she passed away. My siblings told me mum almost broke down when they pushed the casket into the furnace. When I saw this in the movie, I can feel the sudden sadness coming to me.... very very real.. I believe whoever experienced death in the family will understand the touching part of this movie.
Actually, I cannot remember when was the last time I saw granny when she was still alive. Still trying to recall.. guess I wasn't paying attention to her during that period........
