Mary and Martha

I watched this movie on the plane -- from Sydney to Singapore, trying to stay awake due to the time difference.
I was interested with this movie because of the title... but no, it's not the Mary and Martha whom we know from the Bible.

This movie is about 2 women, Mary and Martha, who went through similar situation - the loss of a child in Africa.

Mary wanted to be an extraordinary mother, who tried to show her son the world outside school, because he was bullied in school.
Bully in school is actually quite common, especially in western country (or so I heard).

Martha's son, decided to volunteer in Africa for a new experience. The guy who played as her son is actually the guy who played as Finnick in Hunger Games, Sam Claflin. His death was as detailed, but both died from malaria.

I didn't know that malaria used to be deadly, and still deadly in Africa.
This movie portrayed their struggles to go through their loss and grief, and how hard they tried to continue with their lives.

Mary and Martha in the end decided to do some research and bring this matter to the government so they could help the children in Africa for proper medication and medical attention and save millions of lives :)

The love of mother, who is supported by her husband, is wonderful :)
Love is giving, understanding, and accepting.

Haha, back to Disney movie! :)

I personally love Disney movie, because its message is always about love, and happy ending :)
Life may not always end happily, but it's good to watch this kind of movie once a while, to restore hope, faith, and kindness.

This movie is about 2 princesses, Elsa and Anna. Unique, because usually Disney princess is an only child, or only daughter :)
Secondly, it focuses more in sibling's relationship between Elsa and Anna, not so much about true love kiss.

I like this movie because it's simple, light, but still has a lovely message and good humor in it. Hehe...

For the character, I love Anna a lot. Although she is ignored by her elder sister without knowing the reason, but she still maintains cheerful and positive personality. She reminds me to keep positive attitude towards life and not to allow my problems bring us down.




Love,
