Boy A

Watched the movie last tue.. after my interview which was quite short.. and just nice I was at PS and this movie only shows at GV plaza..

I have been wanting to watch this movie.. becos it has good review and I like the story.. The acting is also very convincing.. It is about this Boy A.. he is named Boy A on court to conceal his identity for killing a gal with a friend when they are just children.. it was a gruesome murder.. it was not shown but you know how cruel they are.. and this cruelness has imprinted into the minds of the people in the society that even if he was imprisoned for 14 years.. this murder can still be remembered that when he get out of the jail, the society and media will still want to dig him out.. media just know how to make use of the mentality of the society to get news and viewership..

he changed his name to jack and wanted to start a new life.. he wants to adjust to this new world that he had lost touch for 14 years.. and find love in this new world.. his friend is gone.. he had passed away.. what caused them to commit the murder.. they are not inborn psycho.. they were just children but the bad childhood experience caused them to behave weirdly.. the friend being sexually abused and bullied by other men.. Jack had an alcoholic father and sick mum suffering from cancer and he was always bullied by other guys in sch.. they are basically ignored by others.. nobody to depend on other than each other.. Jack was the weak one but he was influenced by his only friend.. it was sad to see them being imprisoned.. even if their crime is so bad and maybe unforgivable at that time.. but they have already paid the price.. is there no second chance for them.. I just feel sad..

reward is put out to catch this boy A, to dig him out.. he is said not to be forgiving and so he has to always hide his past.. forget about it to start anew but can he? he has nightmares about the past.. the past is still holding on to him and the story being played on the news doesn't help at all.. even to his new found friend in work and girlfriend, he has to keep them from his past.. how can he live this life.. his only comfort is he still have a social worker who really takes care of him and the good thing that he did which was to save a little gal's life.. he has really changed to the better..

When everything was exposed, he tried to get help but where was the help? who was there to help him.. no more friends there for him.. and he can only escape from all these nightmares by leaving this world.. what a bad ending..

Is the society really so unforgiving? I wonder whether the yellow ribbon project is effective.. I really hope it is..
