Sell Out, a movie which is truly asia, truly malaysia?

Chye cuba bagi tiket free ke movienya yang terbaru after I said mana ada masa nak tengok2 wayang ni? I ni academic, bukan budak bohsia. Dia cakap pergilah.He has some free tickets for Sat.I kata tak payah lah pree-pree.I boleh bayar (dalam hati.I just told him nicely I'd go on any week day belah malam lepas kerja.Bayar sendiri. Tak suka barang pree).

And Nik and I went out.Kelakar giler movie ni! Nak pecah perut ketawa and mungkin ketawa I yang paling kuat dalam panggung seramai 13 orang tuh (publicity is bad..kalau Chye tak sms, I pun tak tau apa) But dalam panggung lagi, I text-ed my friends suruh pergi.Kelakar gila but at the same time clever (script was written and directed by this lawyer chap..apa ke namanya) and it's also a musical actually.Lagu2 don't play2.Memang ada class.Wahhh..if ALL Malaysian movies can be like this ahhh..I tell you ahhh..Spore finish oh! :))

A few questions:

1. Mengapa TIADA main characters yang berbangsa Melayu atau India? Semua Cina dan pan Asians.I think it's done intentionally.FikiR! Sebab apa? Apa rasa anda bila anda dipinggirkan? (you are only in the background and not key players).Lesson no. 1.

2.Mengapa kita boleh ketawakan diri kita sendiri sebagai Malaysians tetapi tidak jika orang ketawakan kita? (my fav scene with regard to this is the death scene of the towkay penjual perabot..Rafflesia the tv journalist of a reality show asks, "What do you think of our government?".Towkay tu now no longer wants to hold back whatever that may offend, is about to voice his final say tetapi his clan semua goyang2 jari mengisharatkan no, no...dangerous to talk about politics.Ini semua stereotyping minda kaum Cinalah.Tapi cute sangat dalam bentuk wayang begitu!

Lagi satu scene fav is masa the two top bosses pi shopping...semua sales assistants menyorok tak mau layan.Kita ingat sebab bosses ni fussy pot tapi it's just that budak2 ni semua pemalas! Ada satu budak gemok tak sempat menyorok..Chye (playing one of the two bosses) caught him but the fat boy lari...chye kejar...akhirnya budak tu pengsan (hidung pun berdarah2).Chye kata we only wanted to ask 50% label tu.50% discount ke hapa ke.It was not clear.He could not answer.Semua nak tanya supervisor.I'm sure many of us went through this during mega sales! Hahaha. Woiit Zubin, hang dah pi tengok kaa movie ni? Tell me what you think.

3. Soalan no. tiga: Mengapa filem yang low budget ini begitu menghiburkan dan clever tetapi filem yang telan juta2 mcm Pasir Salak ke hapa ke sampai hari ni takda?

4.Mengapa pelakon2 ini semua nyanyi guna suara sendiri dgn gubahan musik yang begitu original dan ada kelas, gitu?

Ya, kami sangat puas hati akan filem ini.Kami harap anda cari masa untuk menikmatinya w/pun Chye dan saya bertekak kat sms isu mengapa takda melayu dlm film ni.Hahah.Chye kata filem P.Ramlee boleh diterima bukan Melayu.Saya kata P.Ramlee ada apek.Dia kata kadang2.

It's not really an issue with me.I like it cos' it's a brilliant movie.
