Hello! It's been quite a while since my last post. I just want to share this site I've discovered: Triond. It's a site that helps you earn money for any publishable material that you create. The good thing about it? Well, its free and you can write about any topic that you like, even photos and videos are accepted. They pay you 50% of your work's revenues. I haven't created anything yet but I hope to publish one soon.
Now, I'm sure that grabbed your interest..visit triond now if you haven't already.
BTW, I've mentioned that I am new to Triond. If anyone of you had anything to say about Triond, please feel free to share it by posting your comment.
Anyway, on to other things. I've been hearing good reviews for the film Angels and Demons. I haven't watched it yet but they say its really exciting and absorbing. I wonder what those people who've read the book has to say about it. It's really tough to adapt a book into a film especially if its a best-seller because people can be too critical.
Another thing, have you heard about the remake of the movie Wuthering Heights? Wuthering Heights is a classic novel by Emily Bronte. I had some unforgettable experiences concerning that book. You see, when I was in high-school we made a film adaptation of it. Nothing big, it was just for a school project but I thought it was demanding work. I had to assume a lot of responsibility for it. This novel is about the love story of Heathcliff and Catherine and how their undying love for each other threatened to cause a lot of chaos and disagreements within the people surrounding them. Back then, I found it quite depressing. Maybe if I read it again I'll have another view of it. About it's supposed film remake, I have read on the net that it would star Ed Westwick as the unhappy leading character, Heathcliff. Ed Westwick is currently popular for his portrayal of Chuck Bass in the Gossip Girl TV series.
There has been 2 past film adaptations of Wuthering Heights. One was on 1939 with the great Laurence Olivier playing Heathcliff and Merle Oberon as Catherine. The 1992 version starred Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche. Now I wonder, how would Ed Westwick measure up to the performances of these 2 renowned actors? What new element of Heathcliff's character could he embody on-screen? If the movie pushes through, we'll have the answers.
Bye for now! I hope to post something again soon!
