So remember the days when Asian men were considered undesirable, awkward, weird and portrayed as asexual beings who could never play a lead/supporting lead in a mainstream Western world film/TV series? Yes, really that was not so long ago, and to an extent this sentiment still exists in Australia. But I guess the only difference is that we are seeing more Asian male leads and supporting leads in Hollywood and hopefully this movement will shift changes in other places. Australia is slow, but eventually we will get there.

So who is the character LEO GAO whom ZHAO plays? Well before I get into that, here is what the film is about. It is actually based on a real, well known case in NZ where the then couple HURRING and GAO found that Westpac mistakenly deposited $10 million big ones into their bank account, instead of an agreed $100,000 overdraft. The film is told from the perspective of HURRING, and it follows the entire case and how they took the $10 million and ran to China (obviously to disseminate the money so it could not be easily traced). What an interesting case/film to watch and it really begs the question about human ethics and morals and what would any of us do if we found $10 million in our bank accounts. So you can see what character ZHAO plays in this film right? What a role and what a character.

Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire was the runaway commercial hit of 2009 in the United States, nominated for ten Oscars and bagging eight of these, including Best Picture and Best Director. Also included in its trophy bag arc seven British Academy Film awards, all four of the Golden Globe awards for which it was nominated, and five Critics' Choice awards. Viewers and critics alike attribute the film's unexpected popularity at the box office to its universal underdog theme: A kid from the slums of Mumbai makes it to the game show Who Wants to be a Millionaire and wins not only the money but also the girl. A distribution strategy of slow release building on word-of-mouth may also have worked in the film's favor. It is likely, too, that the current dismal state of the US and global economy played to the film's success, for 2009 was the year in which high numbers of financially strapped consumers took themselves into theaters to lose their woes. But the film's success was not a foregone conclusion. Indeed, at om: point, Warner Bros., owner of the rights to the film, felt it was more advisable to avoid an American release altogether and go directly to DVD. Yet, when all was said and done, a film that cost $15 million to make grossed close to half a billion dollars worldwide (Box Office Mojo).

What made the movie legendary is the ladies: Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe, and Lauren Bacall. They play 3 golddiggers on a hunt for a millionaire husband in the grand city of New York. Spoilers ahead.

I think I liked the movie just as much as the Gentlemen prefer blondes or that Marilyn Monroe movie. How to marry a millionaire had less screentime for Marilyn and she was not as memorable as in the first one.

Note: on average 50 new children every day arrive on the huge station at Mumbai CST (the former Victoria Terminus), which was featured in the film. Railway Children support a local NGO on the station and co-ordinate the efforts of other NGOs working with the Railway Protection Force (RPF) at this location, to intervene as early as possible with these children and seek their protection, welfare and longer term development by restoring them to their families, enrolling them into education or vocational training.


"The Big Lebowski" is about an attitude, not a story. It's easy to miss that, because the story is so urgently pursued. It involves kidnapping, ransom money, a porno king, a reclusive millionaire, a runaway girl, the Malibu police, a woman who paints while nude and strapped to an overhead harness, and the last act of the disagreement between Vietnam veterans and Flower Power. It has more scenes about bowling than anything else.

It is widely known that the Dude was inspired by a real man named Jeff Dowd, a freelance publicist who was instrumental in launching "Blood Simple" (1984), the first film in the Coen canon. I have long known Jeff Dowd. I can easily see how he might have inspired the Dude. He is as tall, as shaggy and sometimes as mood-altered as Jeff Lebowski, although much more motivated. He remembers names better than a politician, is crafty in his strategies, and burns with a fiery zeal on behalf of those films he consents to represent.

In the film, Jeff Lebowski tells the millionaire's daughter (Julianne Moore) that in his youth he helped draft the Port Huron Statement that founded Students for a Democratic Society, and was a member of the Seattle Seven. In real life Jeff Dowd was indeed one of the Seattle Seven, and remains so militant that at Sundance 2009 he took a punch the jaw for insisting too fervently that a critic see "Dirt," an ecological documentary Dowd believed was essential to the survival of the planet. True to his credo of nonviolence, the Dude did not punch back.

In "The Big Lebowski," our hero has left politics far behind, and exists primarily to keep a buzz on, and bowl. He is never actually drunk in the movie, and always far from sober. His bowling partners are Walter Sobchak (John Goodman) and Donny Kerabatsos (Steve Buscemi). Walter, even taller than the Dude, is a proud Vietnam veteran and the strategist of the three. He and the Dude never mention politics. Donny is their meek sidekick, always a step behind the big guys. He says perhaps three complete sentences in the film, all brief, and is often interrupted by Walter telling him to shut the f--- up. He is happy to exist on the fringes of their glory.

Details of the plot need not concern us. It involves a mean-tempered millionaire in a wheelchair who is the Big Lebowski (the Dude becomes, by logic, the Little Lebowski). He broods before the fire in a vast paneled library, reminding me of no one so much as Major Amberson in "The Magnificent Ambersons." His trophy wife Bunny (Tara Reid) appears to have been kidnapped. This leads indirectly to the Dude being savagely beaten by hit men who mistake him for the Big Lebowski. Well, how many Jeff Lebowskis can there be in Malibu? One of them urinates on The Dude's rug, which he valued highly ("it pulled the room together"), and the whole movie can be loosely described as being about the Dude's attempts to get payback for his rug.

The inspiration for the supporting characters can perhaps be found in the novels of Raymond Chandler. The Southern California setting, the millionaire, the kidnapped wife, the bohemian daughter, the enforcers, the cops who know the hero by name, can all be found in Chandler. The Dude is in a sense Philip Marlowe -- not in his energy or focus, but in the code he lives by. Down these mean streets walks a man who won't allow his rug to be pissed on. "That will not stand," he says, perhaps unconsciously quoting George H.W. Bush about Saddam's invasion of Kuwait. The Dude does not lie, steal or cheat. He does swear. He wants what is right. With the earliest flags of the republic, he insists, "Don't tread on me."

One of their fellow bowlers is Jesus Quintana (John Turturro), a man who has converted himself into an artwork in his own honor. Another trio of supporting characters, the Nihilists, is led by Peter Stormare (who played the man feeding the body of Buscemi into the wood chipper in "Fargo"). A considerable role is played by Philip Seymour Hoffman, as Brandt, the worshipful assistant to the Big Lebowski. Some of its fans have seen this movie dozens of times. I suppose they've already observed that that Hoffman and David Huddleston, who plays the Big Lebowski, bear a strong family resemblance. Someone knowing nothing about the film could be excused for suspecting that Philip Seymour Hoffman plays both characters, the older man with skillful makeup effects. A coincidence? I would not for one moment put it beyond the Coens, Ethan and Joel, to encourage this misapprehension. I suspect they cast Huddleston for the physical resemblance.

The film is all about Jeff Lebowski's equanimity in the face of vicissitudes. He is pounded, water-boarded, lied to and insulted. His rug is pissed on and his car set aflame. He is seduced by a woman who wants only his seed. He has a fortune dangled before his eyes, only to have it replaced by telephone books and used boxer shorts. To heal and keep himself whole he stirs himself another White Russian, has a toke, sits in a warm bath. Like the Buddha, he focuses on the big picture. e24fc04721
