Dear Galileo?

Featured Replies



looks like 2 thai girls are having so much fun in London..the city of "khun Galileo" or maybe not
did anybody watch the full video?

A review can be found here.

IMO Dear Galileo (2009) is about human souls, like ships, riding upon the "sea of life." Two young ladies set course and make their way on distant shores (resp. London, Paris and Italy) using available anchors of life. They've trusty anchors waiting and ready to do their work when the need arises. With strong anchors they are quite capable to weather any storm. Sometimes an old wooden bridge may be of help to contemplate life underneath ("lighter runs faster"):

Screen shot at the beginning of this movie shows not the anchorman Ron Burgundy but a bungee jumper which, yes, indeed, also looks like an anchor:

First few shots actually prime the classification of this movie as typical Thai Comedy in which both Cherry & Noon follow their set of rules: #1 - no matter what happens, not to leave each other, and #2 - never break #1. Rule #1 is not a natural law. Natural laws can not be broken, by definition, so do not need rule #2? Now, lets hope the rope of the bungee jumper doesn't break. At the end of the movie it turned out to be a mix of Drama and Comedy.

Following video frame shows again a different anchor under also a special lightning condition created by a relative high tower above gathering as much daylight as possible. Quite a fascinating scene. Here one of the ladies brought in her work for the enjoyment of the other artists around her in Paris:

Both girls are also each other's anchor or constant (hence rule #1). At least one of the ladies has a friendly face at almost every opportunity. The third movie star, a male named Ray, joins her in Paris. It must be the storyline who may've send the other [not so smiling] lady on quite a different mission. Rule #2 gets violated in Italy: the smiling one has been put on a plane by the local Italian police. The other one's soon to follow.

Had to use the pauze, rewind and play button quite often in order to be able to look more closely at some of the details present in the scenes displayed. You can use Google Maps to trace the 2009 locations and read the reviews of corresponding restaurants in London. Glad one of the restaurants near the Eifel in Paris was not present : - )

This pharmacist is focusing upon that quite handy tool of communication of her on the inside of his shop. One of the lights (M) on the outside is not functioning. The other blinking lights that do work on the outside of his shop point to simular things taking care of simular things...

Ok. That's enough for today. Enjoy the movie!

Very enjoyable movie. The scene with the Liverpool supporters and the Torres shirt is excellent. Unfortunately not available on DVD with English subtitles.

Saw it. Nothing special.
