*The kids are alright* & *得閒炒飯 All About Love*
There were much write up about these two Lesbian themed movies that will be showing in Singapore.
*The kids are alright* were given a R21 rating, only showing at Cineleisure, while *得閒炒飯 All About Love* a R21 content rating and slapped with a One time screening rating (meaning no repeats after this period, no extension whatsoever!)

*得閒炒飯 All About Love*
Director:Ann Hui
Cast:Cheung Siu-Fai, Sandra Ng, Vivian Chow, William Chan Wai-Ting
Plot:"All About Love" is a story about two women who were once good friends in school and reunites when they stumbled upon each other at a pregnant mothers' session. Macy (Sandra Ng), a bi-sexual lawyer, was sexually involved with a divorced businessman which had led to an unexpected pregnancy. Meanwhile Anita (Vivian Chow) got herself knocked up by a young guy named William whom she met online. As Sandra and Vivian catch up with their lives and stories, they end up falling in love with each other in the process!
IMHO: *得閒炒飯 All About Love* revolved mainly ard 4 characters. Depicted Sandra Ng as commitment phobic, Vivian Chow as Alwis seeking for True Love and security, William Chan as the young punk suddenly threw with huge responsibilities, his young ways of pursuing his love, Edmund Cheung whose marriage is on the rocks, finds a "sex" mentor (Sandra) n eventually salvaging his marriage n sex life. Cannt deny thou that Lesbian theme is the bulk of the movie, there are many other aspects of the movie that the general public can relate to!
Theme Song is niceeeeeeeeeee........

*The Kids Are Alright*
Cast: Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Mia Wasikowska, Josh Hutcherson
“The Kids Are Alright” focuses on a lesbian couple, Jules (Julianne Moore) and Nic (Annette Bening), who each gave birth to a child using the same anonymous sperm donor. When the older child, Joni (Mia Wasikowska), turns eighteen, her brother Laser (Josh Hutcherson), asks her to contact the sperm bank in order to meet their biological father, Paul (Mark Ruffalo). Once Paul is found, the household will never be the same, as family ties are defined and constantly re-defined, and then re-re-defined again.
IMHO: *The kids are alright* protrayed not just problems of a "dysfunctional" family... in fact I could identify my parents in this movies... the part where they struggled with their teens growing up, seeking their true identity, developing their inner most characters... aging parents struggling about self discovery, satisfaction from work, duties and even the mandate sex life.... isn't it what alot of families would go thru?
