Singapore Dreaming

Pres­i­dent Nathan say good!

Usu­ally, when you watch a Singapore-made film, you watch it as if you’d look at a school project, appre­ci­at­ing the effort put into the project.

Colin Goh & his wife Yen Yen’s Sin­ga­pore Dream­ing didn’t quite afford the same behav­iour. Because it was a very good film. I was drawn into the sto­ries as soon as I uncon­sciously gave up try­ing to look for flaws in the movie.

It picked up after 10 min­utes and became a com­pelling flow of sto­ries which you won’t just iden­tify with. You’ll live them, you’ll dream them.

Thank you Colin for invit­ing us to the pre­miere! Good seats my ass! P27-28 is good seats meh? I thought we’d be sit­ting next to the Pres­i­dent! If that’s how you treat for­mer class­mates… then… bas­ket!

But seri­ously though, well done, dude. You own the space!
