Memoir of a Geisha



I went to see Memoir of a Geisha today, it's very good. I think the director did a great job in translate the story into a movie. The only thing I am disappointed about is Ziying Zhang's dance in the movie, in the preview, it looks like it could be amazing, but it didn't live up to my expectation.... I love Gong Li in the movie, so evil that you want to kill her! She is good... Michelle Yeung is BEAUTIFUL in the movie, really like her in Kimono. I recommend everyone to see this movie, but reading the book before is definetly a good idea.

well, you can do that after, too, but then it's hard to appreciate some of the small details of the movie.....

Now my next movie is King Kong!
