HABIBIE AINUN, The recent less love story

   One of the most popular romantic melodrama movies by a young director, Faozan Rizal, has break

record of the most watched movie in theater. The movie which based from B.J habibie’s biography “HABIBIE

& AINUN”, are starring by Reza Rahardian as Habibie, and Bunga citra Lestari as Ainun.

  The story of this movie, which based of BJ habibie’s biography began with the first met of Rudy

Habibie and Ainun when they were in high school. As the two smartest students, their teachers and friends

were often making fun of them and told her that she looked like palm sugar because she has dark skin. When

they were graduated, Rudy work as an engineer from Germany and Ainun work as a pediatrician

  Ainun, though she had many admirers, but the one she loved the most was only Rudy. After married a

few months later at 12 May 1962, Rudy returned to Germany with his wife. The power of their love made

them survived and fought until they had their established position. Bad thing appeared suddenly when a doctor

told Ainun that she got ovarian cancer, fortunately she can survived. Rudy as a genius person of Indonesia had

a big dream to make plane for his country. This big dream then came true. Rudy made IPTN (industri pesawat

terbang nusantara) in 1974.

  His career in Indonesia increased from time to time, but not easy at all, and his big dream came true

through Gatotkoco in 1995. In 1998 crisis happened in Indonesia and student demanded president Soeharto to

step down. Rudy then was appointed to replace Soeharto, but it was not long before people accused him of

corruption until he decides not to run for president again. In all that times, Ainun was always there to support

him, to be his medicine, to be his shoulder for him to lean and to cry together.

  Happiness returned to their life, but unfortunately the ovarian cancer in ainun appeared again

and even more severe. Until the time she couldn’t survive like before. Rudy did everything to save the life the

woman he loved the most, but nothing he could do when death came.

  This movie is not only showing the romance between prof. Habibie and his wife, but also showing the

political condition of Indonesia at that time. Indonesia also can see how the people in Germany have a great

respect to prof. Habibie, while Indonesia appointed him did corruption.

  Although the acting and makeup of Reza rahardian and bunga citra lestari are great, but their body

gesture when being old doesn’t fit. They only had old face but the body just like young people. And as Ainun,

Bunga citra lestari doesn’t fit for the image of Java oriental woman like ainun.

  Overall, this movie contains a very nice love story. By this movie, we could see that the real true love

is not Romeo and Juliet who tragically suicide to keep their love to each other, but Habibie and Ainun who

grew old together and separated by destiny of death. This movie is a great movie in the end of 2012, but I think

this movie will get more moviegoers if release right on Valentine’s Day.

REVIEW TEXT : UP

The latest Pixar-Disney animation from director Pete Docter, available in 2D and

3D, is a lovely, charming and visually stunning family comedy which can leave no heart

unwarmed, although very young children might be a bit scared at some of the chancier

moments.

A lonely, curmudgeonly old widower called Carl Fredricksen, voiced by Ed Asner, lives

all by himself in a house on land that unscrupulous property developers want to buy.

Finally, backed into a corner by these bullies' legal manoeuvres, Carl simply ties

thousands and thousands of multi-coloured balloons to his house so that it can fly away

and he can visit the legendary Paradise Falls in Venezuela, which he has dreamed of

since he was a little boy and wanted to be an explorer, inspired by the adventurer Charles

Muntz – a flawed Lindberghian hero voiced by Christopher Plummer. To his chagrin,

Carl discovers that he has a stowaway in his airborne house: a feisty boy scout called

Russell, voiced by Jordan Nagai.

This movie is remarkable for a brilliant montage sequence at the very beginning,

sketching out Carl's early married life with childhood sweetheart Elie. It is a masterclass

in narrative exposition, and the moments explaining their childlessness will bring a lump

to your throat. This is a terrific film with hints of Conan Doyle's The Lost World and

Albert Lamorisse's Red Balloon. I wonder, incidentally, if those multi-coloured balloons

are a cheeky dig at the logo of Pixar's rival DreamWorks?
