Wow, Wow, Wow !  Finally !!  finally !!        The biopic movie about the British rock band Queen and their lead singer Freddie Mercury will be coming on November 4 !!!  ( in UK, it's October!)  We are sooooooo excited !!!                                            Freddie Mercury                                            Honestly, my husband and I almost gave up that they would ever make it because we felt like it's been forever since we first heard the news that they were working on a film about the band around 10 years ago.  It sounded really hard to make this movie, changing the casts and directors many times,  and also Brian May ( Queen guitarist ) and Roger Taylor ( Queen drummer ) looked very busy with their world concert tours with Adam Lambert.  and when we heard the main actor was chosen to play Freddie Mercury about several months ago, and we saw some photos of him in the news, we felt like the actor does not look like Freddie, s

Happy New Year ! It's 2015 !!! How was your new year holiday ? I'm feeling like time flies faster and faster every year, and I feel like the more we get older,  the more it gets faster, I don't know why ? Fortunately the year of 2014 was a peaceful year for me and my husband.  I'm very grateful that we both could keep healthy without getting any health problems and have been in healthy relationship. We will keep on caring for our health because that's the most important to have happy feeling from the bottom of our heart. During the holiday season, ( although Ray was working in the new year's day ) we were re-watching the famous classic movie   " Gone with the wind " at night.  That movie is one of my all time favorite movies. We haven't seen it since more than 10 years ago, so suddenly I missed watching it and wanted to see it again. When I first time watched the movie " Gone with the wind " , I became crazy

Finally, these items arrived here ! Especially the DVD of the Robbin Williams movie " What dreams may come " ! We've been looking for the DVD of the movie since last month around August 11, after hearing the sad news about Robbin Williams. I remember that there was one DVD of " What dreams may come " was in the Barnes and Noble's book store here when we went there on August 4.  But I was looking for another movie at that time so I didn't get it then , but was planning to get it the following week. Then when we went to the bookstore on August 11, it was already sold out.  so we looked for it many other places, but it was all sold out, so we purchased it in amazon.com and waited for it coming here until this week . So I'm so glad to get it finally. It's so strange when we were not looking for it , we could easily find the item, but when we wanted it and looking for it, it was hard to get it.  Why ?    I've watched t

Perhaps the most mysterious legend about Mozart is that of the " Masked Messenger ". This mysterious masked messenger is also known historically as the "Man in Gray" , "The Mysterious Messenger" , "The Gray Messenger". The story of the masked messenger was featured prominently in the movie “ Amadeus ".           Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart How much of this story is true ? When Mozart died in the early morning hours of December 5, 1791, he left his final masterpiece, the Requiem , unfinished. A few months later, a completed score of the Requiem was delivered to its anonymous commissioner. How was the Requiem completed and how would Mozart have completed it had he lived? These mysteries have tantalized musicians for over two centuries. Mozart received the commission to compose the Requiem from the “ Mysterious Messenger" in the summer of 1791.  The Messenger paid half the commission in advance,

After watching & reading about Frederick Chopin , Franz Liszt and also Peter Tchaikovsky ’s bio and life stories, we were also curious to know about Mozart ’s life.  So we watched the famous movie “ Amadeus “ which is about “ Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart “ one of the greatest classical composers. Also we will check about Johnahan Sebastian Bach ’s life story in the close future when we have time. I had seen the movie “ Amadeus “ sometime in the 1980's once. And Ray had as well. We remembered it’s a great movie, but we couldn’t remember the details much. Somehow, I felt it was shorter than I expected for this dvd film, and then found out that the director cut some parts of the film for the dvd .  We would love to watch original version with no cuts if possible. The movie was marvelous , and I agree this is one of the top best films. I really understand why this movie received many academy awards. The acting and the music in the movie were awesome ! Seems
