I My Me! Strawberry Eggs (2001)
Awesome
Recently graduated from college, an enthusiastic and bright Amawa Hibiki aims to establish a teaching career. Unfortunately, the school he tries to apply for a job at only hires female teachers. The principal points that men can't teach here because they do not know anything about love. Daunted by the feministic principal's rejection, he swears to prove that men do know about love as women do. Listening to his story, the landlady offers him a proposal. She tells him to dress as a woman to get a teaching position. Then he reluctantly agrees. As Hibiki and the landlady perfect his womanly disguise, he returns to Seitow Sannomiya Academy academy to apply again but as a woman. The Principal gives the female Hibiki a challenge: to get a clumsy student named Kuzuha Fuuko to run 50 m dash without tripping. After several attempts and Hibiki's advice, Fuuko succeeds. That was her first 50 m dash without tripping. She was his first student ever. And Fuuko's classmates notice the female Hibiki with curiosity. Fuuko helped him get a job at Seitow Sannomiya school. Thus Hibiki's career at that school begins.
In the second episode, Fuuko starts to call the male Hibiki a "bra-man" because she saw him wearing a bra. Ironically, she was pretty scared of the male Hibiki but trusted the female Hibiki.
Hibiki has witnessed his students' self-doubts, problems and angst but counseled them to overcome their troubles and doubts. Examples: 1. Hibiki noticed that Fuuko is trying hard to finish her committee duties and no classmate could give a care about it and were too self-centered. So Hibiki decided to take action and inspired all of Fuuko's classmates to help her. Thus Fuuko was no longer the only one who wears bloomers (female gym shorts) because every girl wore bloomers.
2. Hibiki broadens the communication between the parents and students, bringing them as close-knit and loving families on "Family Day".
3. Hibiki helps the kids who were fighting with each other finally come to an understanding and encourages them to share their fears with each other.
4. At the camp, while the vice-principal teaches the kids about the moral wrongs of male-female interaction, Hibiki butts in and opens the kids' minds and makes them realize that nothing is wrong with a male and a female together. He adds that they have nothing to be afraid when they'll be ready to reach adulthood and still interact with each other.
In the end, a 22 or 23-year old teacher Hibiki Amawa realizes he is in love with his own 14-year old student Fuuko Kuzuha who develops lesbian feelings for the female Hibiki but doesn't completely have any idea. Hibiki and Fuuko are 8 or 9 years apart. Not only they are teacher and student but also they're an adult man and an underage girl. Such a forbidden romance.
When the vice-principal doubted Hibiki's gender, she embarks on her intent to expose Hibiki. After several disastrous failures, she was able to succeed securing proof and reveal Hibiki's identity to the public. As Hibiki's gender was revealed to the public, at first Fuuko thought her feelings for Hibiki were fake. But she finally realizes she still loves Hibiki, whether it is male or female. Hibiki is the one she loves, regardless of the gender and it was no lie. Therefore, she staunchly defended Hibiki's actions by reminding everyone of Hibiki's good deeds while being a teacher and successfully rallied the students, faculty and parents to back Hibiki and oppose the school's plans of making it an all-girls school.
Fuuko runs for a desperate last time to reconcile with Hibiki but all she got was Hibiki's look at her running to reach a speeding train he is on. But Just a look at Hibiki's expression was enough to assure her that she'll meet him again someday.
Wide Sargasso Sea (1993)
Erotic
I enjoyed watching this film. The main actress of the movie is hot.
She is sexually attractive and gorgeous. She is one of the most beautiful women I saw.
I wish I will afford to buy a copy of this fascinating movie.
Pretty Baby (1978)
Very interesting and disturbing at the same time.
Ah, yes the 1-line summary is what I would describe the film.
Considering the U.S. child pornography laws, I'm surprised U.S. government has let this movie to be produced.
Looks like the Louis Malle had the guts to make a movie that has nude scene of a young girl named Brooke Shields.
Perhaps that is why this movie must be significant.
It's not surprising to see a lot of reviewers bashing this movie because of the nudity scene.
Logan's Run (1976)
It is a racist film.
How can it not be?
It looks more like a Ku Klux Klan's dream of the perfect future. Logan's Run shows us only white people.
No Asians. No blacks. No hispanics.
Why don't they at least include a colored person?Logan's Run is made in seventies where black and Asian actors will begin to be common in hollywood.
