it's not because I'm not rooting for moonlight, it's because I took a late start at marathon oscar movie. when spotlight premiere, I watch it right away and I just got the feeling that spotlight will take the crown. this yearI'mm too busy watching which variety should i watch this week and seem forgot about The academy award. I'm sorry, its my fault.
Anyway, let's just talk about "Manchester By The Sea"
when the first time I heard bout it, I just read it and not intend to watch it sooner, I like Cassey Affleck so much but this movie takes almost 2 hours and a half. the last movie I watch that has long enough running time are "Schindler's list" and "Ode To My Father", but it takes a half year for me to watch it. One day in a breezy evening on january, with a bunch of cheetos and diet coke, im brace up myself setting my glasses and watch it. since that day, i believe that i already watched the academy award best pictue winning.
As i said before, the story about a guy named Lee Chandler ( Cassey Affleck ) living in his most miserably time in his life. working as a janitor apartment block in Boston, Sullen, Loner and introvert Guy. meanwhile he recieved a call from his neighbor hometown george told him that his Big brother Joe Chandler (Kyle Chandler) Just Passed away due to Heart Attack, without any choice lee back to his Hometown to break the News to Joe's teenage son, Patrick. in this time, when you watch the movie you will have the same thought as me, Why Lee has to be that gloomy and odd, it's his brother death by the way be more sensitive at least. but, you will be too busy thinking about how patrick accept the death of his father and how this accident effect in his daily basis while we look carefully at lee jogging around Manchester by the sea to searching for what's actually the point of his life.
The conflict are actually, Lee found out that joe has asked him to take care of Patrick while Patrick doesn't want to live with his uncle and move to Boston, Lee met his ex-wife back in Manchester and his fatal life past experiences are starting to expose, trust me once you found out about that i feel like i should hug Cassey Affleck for everything that happens to him, im sorry not Cassey Affleck but Lee Chandler.Showcasing a good control acting class i believe Cassey Affleck potray the Character of lee Chandler perfectly tottally sullen and emotionally trouble, hiding something about that hard to Forget, securing his position as Oscar Best Performing in Leading Role. The Story, are a bit slow like sunday evening wave in Brighton seaside, very quite but challenging, it makes you getting curious about why patrick Grow up to be a guy like that and expect he will show a reversal story, turn out his uncle is big reversal story, however sometimes The oscar are like to having Reversal Result. Brace your self out there, since the plot story are a bit slow and breezy becareful of getting bored and end up switching your netflix before it get climax. just don't, if you decided to watch this movie be faithful.
so in the end, i learn a lot today. even monkey will fall from the tree someday. this week i fall from the tree, i lost the banana and slipped into it. But i guess Lee Chandler make me realize something, You will Fall once in life, even two or three times, it would be worthless once you deciding to quit. one day will come and you have to fall again, only if that time you wouldn't quit you wouldn't fall in the future. you will now understand where is the wet floor with no the sign, you will tie your shoelace tightly, and you will check the leak on your pipe before you blame your next door neighbor.
in the end, should i quit predicting oscar next year ??
