Review of Alfie (2004) by Jemina S — 12 Aug 2010
Enthusiastic to see the original movie, directed by Lewis Gilbert.
I like these lines:
Alfie: In every doomed relationship, there comes what I like to call "The uh-oh moment". When a certain little something happens, and you know you've just witnessed the beginning of the end. And suddenly you stop and you think, "Uh-oh, iceberg ahead".
------------.
Alfie: When I was a boy at St. Alban's Secondary School,.
The school took us on this cultural trip.
To observe art at one of the...
One of those big famous London museums.
Anyway, when I was there,.
I came across this statue of a Greek goddess in marble.
Aphrodi... Aphrodite, something like that.
Beautiful, she was.Perfect female form.Chiselled features.
Exquisite.
I stood in awe of her.
Finally, the teacher calls us all over, and I'm walking past it,.
And on the way I notice, in the side of this Greek goddess,all these cracks, chips, imperfections.
Ruined her for me.
