The
Gregory Peck is my favorite among all of
Peck's most famous films are probably his Oscar winning movie "To kill a mockingbird'(1962), and "Roman Holiday". His role as a southern lawyer & father who defended railroad black in "To kill a mockingbird" has been selected as No.1 movie hero by America Film Institute recently.
Peck’s grace and funny role in "Roman Holiday" where he romanced
Princess Andrey Hubburn once charmed so many audiences all over the world.
Peck's man of man whom women loved. He's a gentleman and hero both in
silver screen and in real life. He was once an activist of anti-Vietnam war during late 1960's and early 1970's, and among the lists of enemies by Richard Nixon.
I remember that Peck once visited
Most of so-called mountains situated at ocean-side of
Scattered lakes with transparent water on top of hills give infertile mountains a sign of life and sacredness. The valleys between those mountain ranges sort of present a thrilling scenery as
Gazing at moon from such a uniquely beautiful environment is an enjoyable thing to do, which makes me touch the majesty of nature and experience human beings' worshiping for nature's wonder.
-- Sunshine --
Recently I watched a movie titled "Sunshine", which is about an epic story of a family in
“what's the purpose of this miserable life!?”
About life, I'm a fatalist. After all, all these busy as heck phenomenon (or life) will end in nothingness, ultimately. Perhaps what we can control in this life is to savor whatever we can grasp and try to find sunshine even immersed under torrents of sadness & hopelessness.
Unbearable lightness or heaviness in life, let's just be happy!
-- On Hemingway's works --
What inspires me most in Hemingway's works is the irresistible virility, unyielding spirits challenging destiny, and persistent devotion to sacred causes reflected by his male protagonists. Of course, Hemingway's female protagonists are also beautiful and characterized by loyalty to their love, men, and ideals.
The succinct but usually vivid and accurate descriptions, together with implied meanings between the lines, which are represented by Hemingway's writing style, make his novels easy and exciting to read. Yes, his protagonists more or less deliver paradoxical personality, yet are always full of heroic behavior which touched readers' souls deeply.
In essence, what have I found in Hemingway's works? Passion and spirits, two of most important factors motivating human beings' life as well as the progress of society.
-- Reflection on Frida’s 折腾 life --
A vigorous life requires 折腾, usually.
Haven't watched
Although physically not matched to Frida's petty sized and weak body, I feel that J.Lo may deliver Frida's romantic streak and unstopped pursuing to life and arts better, compared to Hayek. Hayek's facial expression is relatively boring and rigid to me.
Many of us are alive or breathing, but actually like dead men in walking, sometimes. But Frida's an unyielding spirit and aspiration for a dramatic life made her strength and charm surpass the physical vehicle of her life.
What can one expect more for a colorful & meaningful life, if we look at Frida's lifelong pursuing, excitement and sufferings? She had a not only non-boring but also TRUE life.
-- On “黑骏马”--
A very classical style utilized in spreading the plot developed in this touching love story but also mixed with some skills of "stream of consciousness".
Yet I dun like the way that author expressed his views directly in certain paragraphs uttered by the male protagonist, which was unnecessary and made the novel read like a preaching stuff, somehow.
It's also true that the novel is reminiscent of Russian-styled literature work though I didn't feel much annoyed with its wordy description, partly due to the fact that the story itself was good enough.
-- Reflection on a serene picture --
If could
I'd like to be that fog ever
To curtain the charm of you
Let the green be seductive forever
So no one can just touch and go
If could
I’d like to be that ancient river
To mirror the desires beneath silent clouds
Let me give a comfort when you quiver
We talk with no need to speak loud
If could
I’d like to be the mountains behind you
What a luck to be the backbone of a gorgeous life
I’ll be a pacemaker when you stop to go
Together, we are not afraid of darkness and knives
-- Cassini's disappointment --
(Reflection on Rings of Saturn and Cassini’s mission)
A seven year flight,
Brought me a delight--
A delight in caressing,
A beauty with a flashing.
Shimmering from the distance,
Dull as a close-up countenance;
The sassy ring is no more a fog,
But like a piece of simulated log.
What would Titan bring?
A fancy, methane spring,
Falling from a rugged cliff?
While I'm having a funny sniff?
Please, the magic in the methane lake,
No more a beautiful fake......!
(Question: Could the life which might survive on methane/nitrogen dependent microbes on Saturn..., be phantom looking ones, or foxy and mesmerizing images?)
-- Tulip --
Oh White tulip
Shining side by side
Farawell to coldness's grip
Happy tears on smile wide
Oh black tulip
A brave girl's heart
For whom she kept silence
For what she threw a dart
Oh yellow tulip
Yearning for her soldier lover
Petals dance like a ribbon
Elongated to transfer its fever
