Joan Loves.... Gilda Radner



Just wanna make a quick post.

Last night saat lagi menggonta-ganti channel, gue menemukan film menarik yang judulnya Gilda Radner: It's Always Something. Film ini bercerita soal komedian bernama Gilda Radner yang terkenal sebagai artis Saturday Night Live selama 1975-1980. Yang lebih ditekankan di film ini adalah struggle Gilda dalam melawan kanker ovarium yang dideritanya sampai akhirnya dia pingin buat buku tentang perjuangannya itu. And guess what, menurut gue film ini berhasil membuat gue mewek saking menyentuhnya.

I know some people are not a fan of the movie adaptation because it didn't picture the real Gilda,too dramatized it,and so on, but I still love this movie. Hal yang paling gue suka dari film ini adalah quote dari Gilda sendiri:
I always wanted a happy ending... Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.
