Yasmin and Other Movies

Man. What a day.

As you may have read on blogs and forums online, Yasmin Ahmad is currently under observation in ICU.

She is a good friend to many people, myself included. Her movies, while not in my top 40, are important. For one, they convinced arrogant people like me that there are ways to make movies that you are not ashamed of.

And that success does not have to come with hubris.

Oops, my friend is downstairs. Am going out. But am skipping Press Club tonight. Have to be fresh for tomorrow's four day journey.
