It’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you understand how a person would feel when they are alone, it’ll also make you wonder what’s the meaning of sadness and it’s truly make you cry when you start to realise you’re alone and full of sadness although you’re always around with laughters.

Talentime is so Yasmin, by end of the movie I feel so Yasmin inside me.

She tell a story in such, she make me feel how sad it’s to be her (creatively). No matter how creative you’re, no matter how good you’re – if you’re alone – you need people around you – to be appreciated the greatness, the pureness and the loveliness of who you’re.

At least you can say to yourself there is nothing wrong of being you.

It’s so complex, I feel stuck in the chaos of the world of rejection.

“I want to have 100 not 97″ – It’s all about imperfection and imperfection bring anger, anger to achieves something that you know you’ll never get it.

“97 is still good..” – you know.

“She chose a decision she think can make her happy even it was imperfect and Monkey, you’ve to chose a decision that make you happy” – hmmm, I wonder what is Monkey represent in the history of Hinduism?

A Yasmin maybe.

Talentime was not a movie about Malaysian, it’s to me, a movie about Yasmin’s struggles and like all her movie’s characters, she succumb to the feeling of alone although she is around by all the laughters, even if most of us go and watch her movie and appreciate the art of it and to her it’s still all just a tale n time.

A short of 2 hours of laugh, alone, sad and cry of Yasmin Ahmad.

Updated: August ’09 – Looking back on this entry after the passing of her, it’s sad to know this would be her last movie – how she had a hard time to be different; – may her soul rest in peace;
