UTAR Film Festival

I attended the UTAR Film Festival last Saturday. It was a splendid event except the sound system went out of control a little and the emcees should have more spontaneous response.

The event kicked off with the movie review. Two local films were played during the screening, i.e. Sini Ada Hantu directed by James Lee and The Bloody Fish directed by Dick Chua. The former one was hilarious and frightened some of the audience whereas the latter was mind-blowing and create uneasy feelings of the viewers.

What I like the most is the personalities of the local directors. During an interview and sharing session with James Lee and Dick Chua, their answers to our questions were useful in the sense that they increased our knowledge about film industry in local and oversea. I was impressed by their perseverance and creativity in producing films.

Not forgetting a young and good looking actor/director, Teddy Chin, who is also one of the important guests for the event. He studied, acted and was a host in Taiwan before he came back to Malaysia a month ago. He has got a friendly personality but there was something I did not like about him - his words were rather offensive to the audience.

After the film festival, I went to Subang Jaya's Snowflake and Asia Cafe with my classmates to 'heal' our gluttonous stomachs. That was the best part of the day.

Presented to you, the Snowflake Gang. LOL
