願 林憶蓮
最美一幕 還未閉幕
最闊的路在塵世遠方
最好知己永在身旁
聽我講 我從不說謊
我想相聚 誰便再聚
我想歡樂便隨意去追
我想相信我做得對
想到人極疲纍
我自信有日如願
縱使天高地厚
仍被我逆轉
假使一生會沒了沒完
總有日會如願
我自信有日如願
縱使天高地厚
仍被我逆轉
假使一生會沒了沒完
總有日會如願
當結局未揭穿
願 Wish 2002 - 林憶蓮 Sandy Lam

Photographs and memories
Photographs and memories
Christmas cards
you sent to me
All that I have are these
To remember you
Memories that come at night
Take me to another time
Back to a happier day
When I called you mine
But we sure had a good time
When we started way back when
Morning walks and bedroom talks
Oh how I loved you then
Summer skies and lullabies
Nights we couldnt say good-bye
And of all of the things that we knew
Not a dream survived
Photographs and memories
All the love you gave to me
Somehow it just can't be true
Thats all I've left of you
But we sure had a good time
When we started way back when
Morning walks and bedroom talks
Oh how I loved you then

Home - A film by Yann Arthus-Bertrand
A hymn for the planet
HOME is an ode to the planet's beauty and its delicate harmony. Through the landscapes of 54 countries captured from above, Yann Arthus-Bertrand takes us on an unique journey all around the planet, to contemplate it and to understand it. But HOME is more than a documentary with a message, it is a magnificent movie in its own right. Every breathtaking shot shows the Earth - our Earth - as we have never seen it before. Every image shows the Earth's treasures we are destroying and all the wonders we can still preserve. "From the sky, there's less need for explanations". Our vision becomes more immediate, intuitive and emotional. HOME has an impact on anyone who sees it. It awakens in us the awareness that is needed to change the way we see the world. (HOME embraces the major ecological issues that confront us and shows how everything on our planet is interconnected.)
Synopsis
In 200,000 years on Earth, humanity has upset the balance of the planet, established by nearly four billion years of evolution. The price to pay is high, but it is too late to be a pessimist: humanity has barely ten years to reverse the trend, become aware of the full extent of its spoliation of the Earth's riches and change its patterns of consumption.
You can watch the whole movie in Youtube.

Achilles to Kame by Takeshi Kitano
阿基里斯與龜
導演: 北野武
主演: 北野武, 樋口可南子, 麻生久美子, 柳憂憐
阿基里斯與龜》講述小男孩真知壽(北野武)生長的富裕之家,夢想從為畫家的他,頭戴父親送給他的畫家帽,在紙上畫下一張張眼中的美麗世界。但是經濟泡沫讓父親公司破產,父母雙雙自殺身亡,讓他一下子落難成為貧苦孤兒,從沒放棄夢想的他,一邊打工一邊畫畫。
長大的真知壽一直受到賞識,也沒有成為畫家,但是卻遇上了美麗而善良的幸子,不久後,兩人結婚了,並且一同挑戰各種形式的繪畫,卻還是乏人問津,甚至連小孩都無法諒解他們,家庭更因此出現了危機。
面對重重難關兩夫妻仍不放棄....
Director: Takeshi Kitano
Cast: Beat Takeshi, Kanako Higuchi, Yurei Yanagi
A stand-up comic, novelist, painter, academic, and film director, Takeshi Kitano once more tackles the conflict between art, capitalism and imagination, completing the surreal autobiographical trilogy that began with Takeshis and later Glory to the Filmmaker!, and traces the lifetime failure of an aspiring artist. Taking its title from Greek philosopher Zeno's famous paradox, Achilles and the Tortoise follows Machisu from his childhood days, pursuing his dream of becoming a famous painter. The middle-aged Machisu is played by Beat Takeshi, and his (quite successful) paintings are also by Kitano.
