TCP: The Count of Monte Cristo


Happy Tuesday everyone! Wow I'm back again... and I am joining the TCP for the week with it's BEHIND BARS theme...
What I am going to feature today is a movie which, for sure, most have seen this already... A story about friendship and betrayal and vengeance... Whew! Well, you just cannot judge the story unless you have really seen and understood the whole plot! The Count of Monte Cristo movie played by James Caviezel (the one who played the role of Jesus Christ in The Passion). This movie was once became popular in school that my colleague used to play this movie on his class and have his students write a movie review about it...
Here's the synopsis of the story:
"The Count of Monte Cristo" is Alexandre Dumas classic story of an innocent man wrongly but deliberately imprisoned and his brilliant strategy for revenge against those who betrayed him. Dashing young sailor Edmond Dantes (JIM CAVIEZEL) is a guileless and honest young man whose peaceful life and plans to marry the beautiful Mercedes (DAGMARA DOMINCZYK) are abruptly shattered when his best friend Fernand (GUY PEARCE), who wants Mercedes for himself, deceives him. Set up to be unlawfully sentenced to the infamous island prison of Chateau DIf, Edmond is trapped in a nightmare that lasts for thirteen years. Haunted by the baffling course his life has taken, over time everything he ever believed about right and wrong is abandoned and replaced by all-consuming thoughts of vengeance against those who betrayed him. With the help of an equally innocent fellow inmate (RICHARD HARRIS), Dantes plots and succeeds in his mission to escape from prison, whereupon he transforms himself into the mysterious and wealthy Count of Monte Cristo.
With cunning ruthlessness, he cleverly insinuates himself into the French nobility and systematically destroys the men who manipulated and enslaved him.
 Here's the trailer:

Getting a Better Vision With Style

Long exposure to computer can really affects our vision. Just like me, since encoding has been a part of my job, I usually get blurry vision when exposed to direct light. I cannot read smaller fonts anymore from a considerable distance. What is so disgusting then was the fact that once our vision will be affected it caused some headache. My mother advised me to wear prescription glasses but I do not personally like it because it may not look good to me at all. I visited some eyeglass boutique but I can't dare to wear nor try one. However, rather than sacrificing my work because of my eye condition, maybe it's high time for me to really have one.
Observing from my surrounding, wearing eyeglasses nowadays becomes a fashion statement considering that some prescription glasses today comes in fashionable frame. Wearing eyeglasses may not look good to some but as long as it is stylish it will be better then. Somehow it gives me the idea to try one from Zenni Optical.
