![]() ![]() Removing the detail of the scene when Gie met Soekarno, especially the dialog, was the part which really disappointed me. If only Riri Riza stopped after the scene when Chin Han was kidnapped in the dawn of Soeharto's era, this movie would not be a tendentious movie. ![]() Chin Han was representation of grass-root people, especially they who were actually blind in politic world but naively support a party. Adding 'Chin Han' in the movie could be a good decision. When (if you read the diary) the real Gie was a platonist and he couldn't tell anyone, even him self, whether he loved one or more of those three girls, in the movie, Gie were able to determine he loved one of those two fictional girls. Removing three girls and adding two fictional girls in the name of the romance won't get any praise from me. The director has tried to add some fictional character (at least 3) to dramatize the story but the result was not as good as I expected. The first thing in my mind after watching this movie was INTERPRETATION IS LEGAL!! If you found this movie was disappointed then the diary which this movie was based on, was also disappointed since it only had fragment of events instead of Soe Hok Gie's mind.
