The Red Kebaya

2 weeks ago a kind colleague asked if I wanted to watch The Red Kebaya as he have 2 extra tickets. Or course I jumped at the opportunity! At first I thought it was just a normal movie ticket, mana tau it turns out to be a red carpet event!

Unfortunately the person I wanted to go with is still in mourning for the passing away of a relative, but I never thought I have another really semangat and happening friend, willing to travel all the way from Kulim to come for this premiere.

The Red Kebaya actually features quite a number of famous personalities such as Patrick Teoh, Elaine Daly, Paula Malai Ali and Jo Kukathas. The intention to have a good look at all the celebities before the movie start was nearly foiled by the bad jam, but luckily arrived on time to still catch a glimpse of them, but no photo opportunities though... :( GSC Gurney was suddenly turned into a land from the bygones, with most of the ladies all decked out in their finest kebaya. A good evening for people watching. Luckily for Clara, she still follows the theme somewhat, wearing a red jacket to go with her top.

The movie itself was somewhat over theatrical. With some of the dialogues feeling overly scripted and unnatural. But still, its a nice change from the usual slapstick and shoddily done romance comedy that most local producers air on the cinemas. The ending of the story was a bit of an anti climax though. Not gonna reveal more. hahah...
