The Terminal

Have you watched this movie before? As almost all Tom Hank's movie, its a fantastic production. Before this movie, I am sure you are familar with "Forrest Gump", "Saving Private Ryan", "Band of Brothers". But, I will reserve those for another day. Below the main plot, I feel that there is a lesson to be learnt always.

The Terminal, a story about a man that stays in the Airport Terminal due to the weirdest reason. I went to read about it. Its actually based on a true story! A man really lived in the Airport of Paris for 18 years! I am simply amazed by it.

Tom Hanks acting was simply fantastic. You really believe that he was a native from some Soviet state. The accent, the way he acts..... Simply fantastic. The absolutely amazing rate of learning, the wonderous skill in construction and capenting, every seconds there seems to be something new from this man!

Catherine Zeta-Jone. Another fantastic lady. Wow! Charming, hot..... Charming.... HOT... Haa haa.... How do all these actresses stay so attractive? Then again, or is the character of the character that draws her to me? It might be. The warm, simple, 'I need you' feeling perhaps is something that is "my cup of tea".

Of the story, I shall say no more. Laughter, heart-warming, amazment (is there such a word?), love.... They are all inside. Should no spoil too much of it for you then. But what I remember deeply from the movie is the word "Wait".

We are always waiting. Waiting to finish studies, waiting for bus, waiting for pay day, waiting for the right person to come by. We wait. What are we really waiting for? What are you waiting for?

By the way, I think I watched this movie at least 3 times......
