Final exam

Posted by admin On June - 21 - 2006

I’ve done it! Wrote today my final exam in the New Zealand film studies. That means: never uni again. I’m really happy that this is over now. Had two hours time and wrote about three movies: “The piano”, “Heavently creatures” and “Rain”. It was not that easy for me because I had to write in english. Lucky that I met some days ago some other students. They told me the exam is on the 21.06.2006, I thought it will be on the 26.06.2006. All is well that ends well. Hope that I will pass. generic diovan release date

Skyline at sunset

Posted by admin On June - 5 - 2006

This monday was Queensday a public holiday. But as the opposite to Germany the shops here were open. So I was shopping. In the evening Russell and I went to a good spot for the skyline over the marina of Auckland. We watched the beautiful sunset.

It’s sunday

Posted by admin On June - 4 - 2006

After having a fabulous meal this sunday we watched a real good movie ‘The Jacket’. Think its a bit similar to ‘The Butterfly Effect’.

Content: The film centers on a wounded Gulf war veteran who returns to his native Vermont suffering from bouts of amnesia. He is hitching and gets picked up by a stranger, things go pear shaped when a cop pulls them over and is murdered by the stranger. The vet. is wrongly accused of killing the cop and lands up in an asylum. A quack doctor prescribes a course of experimental therapy, restraining him in a heavy duty straight jacket-like device, and locks him away in a body drawer of the basement morgue. During course of his treatment he gets flashbacks and visions of his future , where he can foresee he is to die in four days time. The catch is he doesn’t know how. Thus commences the classic race against time.

Last day of university

Posted by admin On May - 30 - 2006

On my last official uni-day they invited Toa Fraser writer of “Riverqueen” and director/writer of “No.2”. We could ask questions and he was talking about his newest sucess “No.2”.
The movie is about a spirited older woman decides to bring her quarrelsome family together for a party in this comedy drama from New Zealand playwright-turned-filmmaker Toa Fraser. Eightysomething Nana Maria (Ruby Dee) was born in Fiji, but has spent most of her life in New Zealand, where she lives in a run-down but beautiful house on Mount Raskil with her fully grown granddaughter Charlene (Mia Blake, Charlene’s young daughter, and Erasmus (Rene Naufahu), another adult grandchild who has a drinking problem. One morning, Nama Maria wakes up early and decides the family shall gather for a celebratory feast, complete with a roast pig. However, Charlene and Erasmus understand just how tall an order this is — Nana has two sons, Percy (Pio Terei) and John (Nathaniel Lees), who can’t stand one another and barely tolerate their other relations, while grandson Tyson (Xavier Horan) has made a name for himself in business and would rather spend time with his girlfriend from Holland than see his uncles. But somehow Nana Maria’s children, grandchildren, and even some great-grandchildren are rounded up for the occasion, some lured by her promise that she will announce who will inherit her estate after she’s gone.

Saturday Night Fever

Posted by admin On May - 27 - 2006

Finally this saturday was the Seventies Party of Sara. Dresscode in seventies style was a must. So it was quite funny to watch the diffrent styles in what people were dressed. Saw many afro-wigs and many hippie-styled girls. Was a funky night.

“Rain” and “Whale Rider”

Posted by admin On May - 23 - 2006

This tuesday I had the last lecture about New Zealand film. Now I have to do my assignment (3000 words) and writing an exam on the 21 of june. Next week a filmmaker, Toa Fraser,will visit the class and we can ask him lots of questions.

“Rain” is a picturesque movie about a New Zealand family who make holidays in their batch on the beach. But the mother will have an affair. Their whole life will change…
The other movie is the famous “Whale Rider”. A film about the maori, spirits and belive. In a culture steeped in tradition, one young girl challenged the past and found hope for the future. A magical coming-of-age story of a young girl’s struggle to fulfil her destiny.
kamagra online kaufen per nachnahme “One of the most charming and critically acclaimed films of 2003, the New Zealand hit “Whale Rider” effectively combines Maori tribal tradition with the timely “girl power” of a vibrant new millennium. Despite the discouragement of her gruff and disapproving grandfather (Rawiri Paratene), who nearly disowns her because she is female and therefore traditionally disqualified from tribal leadership, 12-year-old Pai (Keisha Castle-Hughes) is convinced that she is a tribal leader and sets out to prove it.
Rather than inflate this story (from a novel by Witi Ihimaera) with artificial sentiment, writer-director Niki Caro develops very real and turbulent family relationships, intimate and yet torn by a collision between stubborn tradition and changing attitudes. The mythic whale rider–the ultimate symbol of Maori connection to nature–is also the harbinger of Pai’s destiny, and the appealing Castle-Hughes gives a luminous, astonishingly powerful performance that won’t leave a dry eye in the house. With its fresh take on a familiar tale,
Whale Rider is definitely one from the heart.” (Jeff Shannon)
