Review Log
This will contain mostly reviews. I will keep spoilers to a minimum where possible, but I can't guarantee spoiler free.
I mentioned how much I've been thinking about Year of Living Dangerously, and particularly the character of Kumar, during the Middle East protests. I weatched and transcribed this stuff for you, so you could see what I'm babbling about.


“My country suffers under a great weight of poverty and corruption. Is it wrong to want to change that?” -Kumar, Year of Living Dangerously

Kumar: Tell me something, am I a stupid man? Then why should I live like a poor man all my life when stupid people in your country live well.
Guy: Good question.
K: Then please answer it.
G: I can’t.
K: Then why do you condemn those in my country who try to do something about it? Mr. Billy Kwan was right. Westerners don’t have answers anymore. Water from the moon.
G: What’s does that mean, Kumar?
K: It’s an old Javanese saying, means something one can never have.

Kumar: Think of me Guy, when you are sitting in some nice cafe in Europe. In my dreams, I am always sitting at the table, by the footpath, drinking coffee.
