"greenberg"

At least 12 persons walked out of the movie at different parts of the show. To begin with, the 200-seater theatre was only about a quarter full when the show started.

"Roger Greenberg [Ben Stiller], single, fortyish and at a crossroads in his life, finds himself in Los Angeles, house-sitting for six weeks for his more successful/married-with-children brother. In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg tries to reconnect with old friends including his former bandmate Ivan. But old friends aren't necessarily still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending more and more time with his brother's personal assistant Florence, an aspiring singer and also something of a lost soul. Despite his best attempts not to be drawn in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection, and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason to be happy."

That's really just what the whole show was about. It was a slow, plain, not-so-exciting story. It was so not the kind of Ben Stiller show we had in mind when we decided on the show.

Over dinner I asked Charles if he would have left in the middle of the show and he said no. He said he kind of liked it. He liked the details in the movie.

We also talked about why he switched from "business" to "accountancy" and that he did not get a testimonial from the secondary school. (As far as I know, everyone including those not-so-nice ones, would get a testimonial.) He also said that he would like to apply to be the torch bearer for the YOG and asked me what he should write in his application letter.

He reminded me again that I was the only one who said good things about him when his mum went to the school and shared about how he can't really work with the 18-year-olds in his class.

I really like this Charles. How did the change happen? Have you even changed? Or was it because we have never looked at you this way?
