La Nuit
Les Choristes (The Chorus)
Synopsis:
In 1949 Monsieau Clement, an assistant teacher, comes to a school for “difficult” boys. The School is run by a hard minded principal. The motto of the school being “Action – ReAction”. This method obviously isn’t working, as there are a lot of problems and problem children. Monsieau Clement tries to reach his boys and build trust and true order through music.
Truly Magnifique!
I was elated to finally get my hands on the VCD (with English subtitles - thank goodness for that). Now, I can watch it anytime I want instead of having to wait ages for it to stream online.
It's my favouritest movie. I'd re-watch it a million times! The angelic voices and meaningful plot will definitely tug at your heartstrings.
And of course, not forgetting my eye candy in the movie:
*Melts*
His name is Jean-Baptiste and he plays Morhange in the movie. His voice, it's just plain amazing. It's so pure and sweet - truly god sent. You've just got to hear it yourself.
Here are some of my favourite scenes and songs from the movie:
La Nuit - The Night. Watch out for his solo at about 1:42.
Cerf-volant - Kite.
Saving the best for the last, here's my favourite of the favourites! Too bad I couldn't find a video related to the movie.
Caresse sur l'ocean - Caress on the ocean.
What makes this movie even more meaningful for me is that it was first shown to us by a teacher who has inspired and taught me so much about life. The teacher in this movie, Monsieau Clement, reminds me of her. She's someone I'll never forget for life =)
Please go and watch it, everybody!

Change. The only constant thing in the world. How true.
I'm shocked at how things can change within such a short period of time.
At the end of the day, I can only blame myself. But I can't help feeling angry, mad and heartbroken. I know I shouldn't be feeling this way.
You didn't wait long enough.
Through these years, I've learnt that most of these changes are irreversible.
Some people, once they leave, they'll never return. How many times have I let this happen?
How can you unbreak a broken heart?
Thank you YY for accompanying me tonight. Thank you Simsim for your encouraging SMSes. If not for these, those tears would have fallen. I'm just not strong enough.
