is out TODAY!! My dear friends, please Please PLEASE watch it. It is THE most amazing film my aunt had directed. Not that her other films weren't great either because they were, but this film has touched me fully at the 2nd & last premier I went to.
Watching it on the big screen really grabbed my attention to it. I have never been tired of watching the trailer AND the film itself. I have the synopsis here in front of me. TALENTIME Synopsis =>
A talent search competition has matched two hearts - that of Melur, a Malay-English girl & an Indian male student, Mahesh. Melur, with her melodious voice, singing whilst playing the piano is one of the seven finalists of the Talentime competition of her school organised by Cikgu Adibah. Likewise Hafiz, enthralling with his vocalist talent while playing the guitar, dividing his time between school & mother, who is hospitalised for brain tumor. It all started after Mahesh, amongst the students assigned to get the finalists to school for practice, delivered the notice of successful audition to Melur's house. His handsome looks attracted the girl. Early on of their relationship, tragedy struck Mahesh's family when his uncle Ganesh, who had been the care-taker of the family since the loss of Mahesh's father, was stabbed to death on his wedding day. Melur thinking that Mahesh's silence was due to his grief over the tragedy became furious when she was continuously ignored. She regretted it however after Hafiz revealed Mahesh's situation. That changed Melur's perception of Mahesh. Likewise Mahesh, who grew comfortable with the presence of the girl who often quotes beautiful poetry, realizing that the relationship will be opposed, kept it hidden from his mother, still grieving over the death of Ganesh. Alas, the secret was exposed & Mahesh was assaulted before Melur's very eyes. Just a day before the competition, is Melur resilient enough to sing the poetic lyrics of her song when her heart is tormented by the thoughts of Mahesh? What about Mahesh who has found his first love? On Talentime night, everything unfolds.
So what do you guys think? Sounds interesting, right? Well, I'm planning to watch it again this weekend but the thing is, I want to watch it with you guys. Watching it with y'all will definitely be better than with my maid. Ick! Do call me or leave a comment at my Cbox.
[from left (then up & down) to right] Amelia playing as Melati, Mei Ling playing as herself, Hon Kahoe playing as himself, Susan playing as Granny, (I for got the name of the person next to her o.O) , Yasmin Ahmad the director, Elza playing as Mawar, Mahesh playing as himself (but dumb & deaf) , Harith Iskandar playing as Abah, Pamela Chong playing as Melur & Jaclyn Victor playing as Bhavani.
Syafie Naswip playing as Hafiz by the way. Aizat from friggin' AF was the one singing the songs "Just One Boy" & "I Go", not Syafie just so you guys know. Those songs including "Angel" & "O Re Piya" are amazing. Seriously. They're like my favourite songs from that film. "O Re Piya" means "O My Beloved".
Well, I enjoyed my self during the last premier because Syafie, Melkinn's sister, Amelia, Thomas Chia & Adibah Noor were there. I couldn't stop pinching Syafie because so GERAM to see him again after so long. X) Couldn't help it! Lol. Well just so you guys know, Susan (playing as Granny) is actually really funny & crazy in real life instead of stiff & still in the film! Seriously. She's really fun to get along & hang out with.
I guess that's it for now. Nothing much. Gots school & choir tomorrow.
May, thanks a bunch for letting me know that I'm in the choir competition!! Woot! Let's kick Seafield's & Catholic's ass, dear fourians!!
Until the day we go Sunway Lagoon one day (which I'm hoping is soon) ...
Shana's watching the Talentime trailer over & over
