Ten days have gone by like a flash and I'm sitting here in the press room on Saturday afternoon, Valentine's Day, mulling over the dull flicks I slept through, the one or two that kept me awake, and the handful that I really wanted to see but never got around to. ("John Rabe", Sean Penn's "Milk", a Persian film called "Barbareye Elly", the latest Wajda, and a few others). Of the half dozen competition films I did get to, not one was a real winner, and most were so...

Battling the onslaught of a life threatening stage of diabetics, an entire board of unapproving officials ready to oust him, a record of 12 years of Malaysian football supremacy, Uncle Choo defiantly returns to the Singapore football scene in 1977 restoring Nationalistic pride.
