881



I have been a big follower of Royston Tan who is a Singaporean film Director and enjoyed his past short movies as well as his full lengths long before moving to singapore but I did not have the opportunity to see his acclaimed 2007 flick called 881 yet. It is now out on DVD so I grabbed my copy from the local HMV and loved every minute. This guy is a real genius and his creativity is simply amazing. I am gobsmacked by all the inventions and humour he can bring in an otherwise poignant tragedy. And it has also such a strong Singaporean identity. If you have not seen it I can only recommend you track down a copy anywhere you can.

TV Trailer here.
