#and also maybe learn scripwriting

[flowers-of-io]

I used to be such a hater towards creative writing classes and courses (because my dad was a hater towards them, and you know what Inquisition of the Damned says about the need of daughters to impress their fathers), but now guess what course I'm enrolling for this year lol

I totally agree that film is one of the best or perhaps the best art ever created by human. The film represents several other of art such acting, songs or singing, comedy, and videography.

Imho, a good film isn't only a film that is seen from the role, actor, setting, or DOP. But more than that, a great film that make the audience drowning or maybe lost in the storyline and make aftertaste.

Have you ever felt after watching a film, "Wow this is really insane, why this is character so me?", "Why this is storyline so me?" Yes, the connection between film and our mind makes some film very touching and will be easy to remember, and we'll like it, and recommend it. In addition, several films will show us the shrewdness and how the genius of the scripwriter with such incredible words. Yes, like i mention before, film representating other art, poem and poetry.

Films are indeed as "powerful" as they are, right now we have development of technology and civilization, people could make a great film from it, using it, and day by day we'll amaze.

We can learn from watching film, not infrequently films are also based on true stories of great people, great stories, or great events. Films can change someone life, it so many stories over that. But what we need to remember is that film is a film, not everything in the film is real, not all character in film is real. Please take the good only and learn from it.

My Favorite Old Dramas (This Post Special for KinKi Kids’ Drama)

Since it's December and 2017 will end, so I'd like to share my favorite JDrama. This year, I just returned to fandom after 1 years. Since I'm so out-dated about recent dramas, so I've been watching some old dramas and I enjoyed it so much. Well, this post is special for KinKi Kids drama (I will put other old dramas in the different post).

CAUTION: MAYBE I WILL GIVE SOME SPOILERS HERE

THIS IS ON-GOING POST. I WILL UPDATE THIS POST THEN.

UPDATE 2017/12/21 : I realized this post is too long, so I write a new post

Here they are.. my favorite old dramas:

1. Remote (2002) 8/10 This drama is based on manga with same title, 'Remote'. The story is about a shut-in (hikikomori) police detective named Himuro Kouzaburou (Domoto Koichi). He usually works at his home which is also his own office named 'The Special Office of Unsolved Crimes' (A-Bekka). One day, he hire a policewoman from Traffic Division, Ayaki Kurumi (Fukada Kyoko) as his subordinate to investigate the cases since he can't go outside. So, he usually give orders to his subordinate by phone.

My review: This drama also have comedy side. There're many funny characters in this drama, such as Inspector Otaguro and Shingo (Tamaki Hiroshi)-- Kurumi's boyfriend. Kurumi is noisy and emotional though, but her character complete Himuro's character who is an unemotional detective and she try her best to understand Himuro's feeling. Koichi and Kyoko played this role very well. He looks genius there. I feel the chemistry between Koichi and Kyoko in this drama. The theme song is Solitude and somehow I learnt that this song really portray Himuro's character who is actually lonely in his deep heart. The ending is different with manga version and I prefer the ending part in manga version. So I'm bit dissappointed with the ending in drama version.

2. Ie Naki Ko 2 (1995) 7/10 The continuation of Ie Naki Ko 1. About a poor girl named Aizawa Suzu (Adachi Yumi). She lived with her delinquent father. One day, her father ask Suzu to live in a rich family called Ichijo family, because a grandfather of Ichijo family is searching his real grandchild to give his inheritance and he's thinking his daughter died. So Suzu disguise as Ichijo's grandchild. She meet Chiho (Nakayama Emiri), a poor girl who also disguise as Ichijo's grandchild and Erika (Enomoto Kanako), a rich and villain girl who will bully Suzu and Chiho, and Makimura Harumi (Domoto Koichi) a poor and naughty boy who really love Suzu. From there, Suzu start throughing her complicated days in Ichijo family.

My review: This drama was a HIT on 90s era. For me, this is one of old drama with complicated story. Suzu is such a brave girl. She take many risks and struggle her life. Adachi Yumi was still very young (she was 14 y.o when played this role) but she played the role very well. Koichi was different there. He played such a naughty boy but sweet inside. I love seeing love scene between Koichi-Yumi. They were just cute. I can't say this drama is about youth or teenagers, because the conflicts are too complicated. Tbh, I don't like the ending. The scripwriter as if want to ruin Suzu's beloved people' life.

3. Summer Snow (2000) 9/10 About a guy named Natsuo (Domoto Tsuyoshi), a cheerful guy who loves diving and runs a bicycle shop and take his died-parents role for his siblings, Jun (Oguri Shun) who has hearing-impaired and Chika (Ikewaki Chizuru) who is dating a delinquent boy, Hiroto (Imai Tsubasa). Natsuo meet a bank-employer, Yuki (Hirosue Ryoko) who actually have problem with her heart. and they start their love story.

My review: My 1st favorite Tsuyoshi's drama. I really love all characters in Summer Snow. Imo, this drama have simple story but meaningful. Tsuyoshi have different facial expressions and character there. I love the chemistry between Tsuyoshi with other casts. As I expected, Tsuyoshi's acting skill never dissappoint me. The ending is the most heart-breaking. You will feel many emotions while watching Summer Snow. Now, I realized that Summer Snow refers to Natsuo-Yuki. Their characters are different, Natsuo is a cheerful guy (summer identically has bright image) and Yuki is a gloomy (in the beginning) and calm woman (winter identically has calm image) but they complete each other.

4. Sushi Oji (2007) 7,5/10 This drama is about sushi chef, Maizu Tsukasa (Domoto Koichi) but he has fish eye phobia. If he see fish eye, he turn into different person and he beat people or something around him randomly. If he really want to be a sushi chef, he must overcome his fish eye phobia. So, he travel around for learn making sushi from some great sushi chefs and doing the battle with other sushi chefs who heared about Tsukasa's skill. But, behind his meeting with sushi chefs and his rivals, he found out about his mom place.

My review: Koichi was different with his usual prince image in Sushi Oji. His facial expressions are random and hilarious. This is the weirdest drama ever XD (that’s why I give 7,5). The characters are also weird (you can watch it by yourself lol) and this drama use so much effects there. I'm dissappointed because this drama have 8 episodes. I know it has the movie version (the continuation of drama version) but I wish it had 2nd season or SP episode. I like Koichi's role. Fun facts: I learnt that characters name in this drama have meanings which relate to sea and fish (e.g. Maizu Tsukasa/米寿司, Kurage/海月)

5. Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo 1-2 (1995/1996) 8/10 The story is about a highschool detective who is also Kindaichi Kousuke's grandson, Kindaichi Hajime (Domoto Tsuyoshi). Together with Nanase Miyuki (Tomosaka Rie), his childhood friend, to help polices to solve the murder cases.

My review: Domoto Tsuyoshi is Kindaichi 1st generation. Tbh, I haven't watched other versions of Kindaichi yet. But as people said, Tsuyoshi is the best Kindaichi among others. Tsuyoshi played Kindaichi very well and his facial expression is cute there. Both Kindaichi and Miyuki have good chemistry there. Since I love watching detective dramas, this drama frightened me so much. Because the cases are mostly murder case. But ending part of every episode dissapoint me. Because when the culprit admitted her/his action of killing people, they end it with committed suicide (do manga version have that?).

6. To heart (1999) 8/10 The story is about Touko (Fukada Kyoko), an active woman and work at crepe shop. She accidentally meet Tokieda Yuji (Domoto Tsuyoshi), a boxer at convenience store and continued at video store. In the next day, when Touko go to work, she notices Yuji is training in the park and she instantly fall for Yuji of his serious side. Since then, Touko cheers for Yuji. Although some people ruin their relationship, Touko never give up on her love to Yuji.

My review: Kyoko is always good at making her chemistry with other casts. I love her role there because what I like from Touko (Kyoko) that she is sincere and keep supporting Yuji with all of her heart. Imo, Tsuyoshi in 90s had delinquent aura after Kindaichi (sorry, Tsuyoshi-san). Because he often did fighting scenes in his dramas. Tbh, I think this drama have flat conflict, except when Yuji had problem with his eye (it's the heart-breaking part). But I love the ending. Touko still love Yuji sincerely and Yuji finally realized Touko's feeling.
