Well, what's the purpose of reading my blog?

Have you guys ever thought about it?

Yes, I have.

I want to know how my friends getting on.

that's why I read what they write.

Ya, you do think about it huh.


As I named this blog "whoever's comfort zone".

Does that mean I can't write anything unhappy?

Hehe, don't worry! I'm not going to do that.


Alright, let's make a quick start.

As usual, I'm going to share.

Hehe, don't you ever think that I want to share "Secret" huh.

I know you all love that, so I'm not going to do that though it's nice indeed.


The film I've watched is Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events.

It is a 2004 Academy Award-winning film,

directed by Brad Silberling.



I borrowed the DVD from a friend named Black.

About 15 of them I've borrowed, but I like this the most.

That's why I'm sharing.


It is based on the first three novels,

The Bad Beginning, The Reptile Room, and The Wide Window, in Lemony Snicket's book series.



As in the books, exactly where and when the story takes place is unclear.

The film reflects this ambiguity in its art direction;

it was praised for its creative sets and costumes,

all of which have a darkly expressionistic and gothic feel,

leading to a highly unusual and creative visual motif.


The film is narrated by Lemony Snicket,

who occasionally appears in silhouette,

writing the story on a typewriter in what appears to be the interior of a clock tower.


Inventive Violet Baudelaire, her intelligent younger brother Klaus and their sharp-toothed baby sister Sunny are orphaned when a mysterious fire destroys their parents' mansion.



They are placed in the care of bank manager Mr. Poe, who entrusts them to their "closest relative."


However, misinterpreting the phrase, Mr. Poe chooses the relative who lives the shortest distance away, the obnoxious Count Olaf.



Olaf promises to take care of the orphans "as if they were actually wanted" but in fact, he is only interested in the huge fortune that Violet will inherit when she turns 18.



In the meantime, he treats them like slaves.


This is just the very beginning of the story...


I'm so sorry if you're expecting me to tell you more.



Because I'm not going to do so.

Just watch it !

Buy it or borrow it, whatever.

I bet you won't regret. (",)
