my ambivalent attitude

Sunday, April 09, 2006

A typical love story, whereby the lovers have to cross multiple barriers and obstacles in order to be together, leading to the demise of one party and the agony of the other. But what was luring my eyes away from the screen was a couple sitting a few seats away from me, engaging in I-don't-know-what, maybe some hanky-panky or caressing or petting, that was sometimes making my row of seats shake, coupled with their loud giggling and laughters that were distracting. I guess their emotions were evoked by the few bed scenes in the movie. I'm not a prudish person, but isn't this a bit too blatant? What's more, it prevented me from listening clearly to what the actors were saying, with no chinese subtitles and all.
