reflections: bodyguards and assassins
Tuesday, 22 December 2009

There must always be sacrifice to fulfil lofty ideals for the greater good.

I think that's the main concept that I took home after watching the Bodyguards and Assassins. Sacrifice is necessary, for one man alone cannot move the whole world (or in this case, country). And it's not always the big shots who choose to sacrifice. They tend to be the laymen who will die for their country. Someone's fiance, someone's husband, someone's widower, someone's son, someone's orphan, someone's brother, someone's employee, someone's friend... Just very ordinary folks who you wouldn't ordinarily think twice about. And that's what makes it noble, to see them all give so willingly for a better future for the later generations.

Reviews don't all agree on the quality of the movie, but that was one movie that made me go "wow". History with the human element. That was awesome. :]
