Purple is the color of love...

Begitu sempitnya waktu, begitu besarnya cinta..

That was the underlying message for the latest Indon movie, Ungu Violet. The movie was superb, to me laa, because it plays a lot with symbolic meaning behind every scenes. The film was done in a very simple yet excellent way that leaves a lot of room for the audience to interpret the scenes themselves. With not much dialogues, the film focuses on the actors expressions and feelings that were successfully communicated to its audiences.


I am not going to rave about how much I love the movie and spoil the whole thing for those of you that plans to watch it. All I have to say is that if you love to watch artistic movies.. than this movie is a must watch! The cinematography is excellent.. The actress is brilliant ( and damn pretty too...)... The storyline is a bit tricky because it requires you to think a lil' laa (definitely not a typical A. Razak Mohaideen movie). And the script is very poetic.. I didn't even bother to read the subtitles (yeah, they have the malay subtitles because the Indon words they used are very hard to understand.. very the pekat..) because some of it lose its poetic values once it was translated into B. Melayu.


I spent the entire time during the movie, trying to figure out what does the movie title means in the context of the movie. I seriously thought that it is part of a poem or a song that was written in the movie or even the major color theme for the movie. Instead, I've found out that it actually goes deeper than that. Ungu Violet actually represents the color of love (purple) that entwines red and blue into purple. Symbolic ain't it? That's how great the movie is...


Besides the storyline itself, another thing that had managed to capture my attention was the movie soundtrack. Yeah, Indon movies are known for their great soundtracks like "Ada Apa Dengan Cinta" from the movie of the same title, "Tak Tahan Lagi" from the movie, Eiffel I'm in Love, "Tentang Seseorang" from the movie of the same title and many more. And I fell in love with this movie's song - Menanti Sebuah Jawaban by Padi.. Click here for a preview to the song.



Menanti Sebuah Jawaban


Aku tak bisa luluhkan hatimu
Dan aku tak bisa menyentuh cintamu...
Seiiring jejak kakiku bergetar
Aku telah terpagut oleh cintamu
Menelusup hariku dengan harapan
Namun kau masih) terdiam membisu

Reff.
Sepenuhnya aku ingin memelukmu
Mendekap penuh harapan
Tuk mencintaimu
Setulusnya aku akan terus menunggu
Menanti sebuah jawaban
Tuk memilikimu

Betapa pilunya rindu menusuk jiwaku
Semoga kau tau isi hatiku
Dan seiring waktu yang terus berputar
Aku masih terhanyut dalam mimpiku
Aku tak bisa luluhkan hatimu
Dan aku tak bisa menyentuh cintamu...
