ABOUT ME
I just felt like making one. At least this way if anyone who follows me is curious to know a bit more then they can just have most of their answers redirected here. Convenience FTW!
(My “about me” text was pretty much taken from Grace aka larsvontrier - go follow her!)
- Name: Hieu
- Age: 20
- Location: Melbourne, Australia
- Occupation: Full-time student in second year at Uni. I also volunteer at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image.
- Major: Cinema/Media Studies.
- When Did I Become Interested In Film? During my early teens. I loved the first Saw film and thought it was so damn good that I really begun to wonder who made the film and was just generally really curious and interested in the filmmaking process. Saw might be laughable now but it reinvented horror and made it new again.
- Top 5 Directors: Martin Scorsese, David Fincher, Wong Kar-wai, Park Chan-wook, Hayao Miyazaki.

Other all-time favourites (in no particular order) include Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Children of Men, Hard Boiled, Princess Mononoke, Memories of Murder, The Wrestler, Zodiac, Goodfellas, Lost in Translation, The Breakfast Club, Pulp Fiction, Raiders of the Lost Ark, 21 Grams, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Chinatown, Network and MANY MORE.
- Favourite Actors: Robert De Niro, Tony Leung, Edward Norton, Christian Bale, Song Kang-ho, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen.
- Favourite Actresses: Amanda Seyfried, Rose Byrne, Maggie Cheung, Naomi Watts, Julianne Moore, Faye Dunaway.
- Music: Killswitch Engage, Silversun Pickups, Placebo, Shiina Ringo, Tokyo Jihen, Dir en grey, Parkway Drive, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Blood Red Shoes, Led Zeppelin, Childish Gambino, Metric, Iron Maiden, Janelle Monae, Kid Cudi, Nujabes, Mos Def, My Chemical Romance, Nas, Clint Mansell, John Williams, Cho Young-wook, Joe Hisaishi.

- I try to consume at least 3 - 6 films each week.
- I play way too many video games.
- I have an adoration for all things zombie-related.
- I possess a very cruel sense of humour.
- And the first movie I ever remember watching in the cinema was Jurassic Park: The Lost World. The seeds of adoration towards Julianne Moore probably began planting themselves that same day.
Long post was long. You guys have fun with that.

Robert De Niro is magnificent in Frankenstein, acting as the monster. Just magnificent.
