iS truTh jusT an iLLusioN?

i tooK the afternOon oFF yesterdaY. haD soMe free tyM in my haNds as an appoinTment was canceLLed. heNce, i deciDed to treat my eyeS to soMe iLLusioNs @ d ciNema.

fiRst, i muZ saY thaT edwaRd nortOn's reaLLy kiUt wiF his bearD & astouNding acceNt & loVelorN eyEz.. *griNzz*


sEt in d capitaL of vieNna in tyMz weN there weRe monarcHs & ducHesseS, d iLLusiOnisT teLLs d taLe of a rekindLed lOve betWeen a peasaNt turNed iLLusioNist, EisenHeim & aN aristocraT, soPhie Von TescheN. aS youtHs, their loVe was forBiddeN. eiseNheiM traveLled d werLd & caMe bacK to vieNNa as a faMous iLLusioNist; onLy to discOver thaT hiS reKindLed loVe wiLL be marrieD to d crowN prinCe leopoLd.

d iLLusioN of lurVeee....loVe connecTed thRu' iLLusioNs. iroNy?

in suMMary, d storyLine goEs: boy meeTz gaL; dey faLL in loVe; loVe's forBiddeN; couPle sepaRate. eoNs laTer, theY meeT. deY loVe yet agaiN. there are obstacLes & sumhoW loVe triuMphs.

howeVer, wad intriGued mE d mosT is d twisT d moVie giVes to d pHrase: "Love wiLL overcoMe aLL odDz". yeS, loVe did triuMph. bUt i wunder wHeTher given d circumsTances, it was justifiabLe...

i appLaud d twisT neiL burGer (d directoR & wriTer) giVes to d mOvie's pLot. @d saMe tyM, i thOuGht it reaLLy is kiNda creePy iF u tiNk abOut it twiCe: thaT soMehow d truTh werKz in mysteriOus ways...

in a waY, i thiNk d movie aLso questiOns wHether truTh is juSt a mere iLLusioN...or That sOme truTh exisTs in iLLusioNs...anD perhaPz @tyMz... we are oNly giVen an iLLusioN of wHat d truTh is. GeeZ...

otHer than thaT, i tiNk d vicToriaN looK doesN't suiT jessica bieL (who pLays soPhie). this d besT piC i couLd fiNd of heR in heR priNcessY roLe:

Princess SophiE (jessiCa bieL)

edward noRton as eisenheim: dOesn't d d loNg coaT & misTy atmospHere bear a resembLance to mr darCy in 'Pride & prejudice'?? =P

i lurVedd d loCket he made for soPhie. triEd to finD a stiLL piC of it, but no lucK so faR.


weLL, you couLd cLick HerE to caTch more iLLusioNs. yEs, yoU caN finD d locKet On d siTe as itS d maiN icOn. (",)


~ From the moment we enter this life we are in the flow of it. We measure it and We mock it, but we cannot defy it. We cannot even speed it up or slow it down. Or can we? Have we not each experienced the sensation that a beautiful moment seemed to pass too quickly, and wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day, and wished that we could speed things up a bit? ~
