ROMA 2018 REVIEW




Roma is about a domestic helper and her relationship towards her masters. It portrays realistic concentration on both the help and the masters and their individual relations in love, insecurity, pain, and family.

I love the scene when Cleo was serving the family while watching television, she also tried to sit with them. And when one of the children put his arm around Cleo, portraying love and happiness towards the help.

Concluding the beautiful scene of masters and “domestic helper" in harmony with a request from one of the children to have some refreshments then follows many more request. Ending with Cleo going to the kitchen while her masters enjoys watching television.

I'm not saying it's not possible, but a leader must show aggressiveness in cases that needs seriousness and haste. Being a all-nice-person emperor, hmmm not that good enough. I'm saying an emperor of a great and big empire needs to master all attitude, to use each for different purpose and usage. Published: January 27, 2019

VASCO DA GAMA

Remember when European explorers tried their very best to find a route to India? Well, we present you, the famous Vasco da Gama.

Bartholomeu Dias aspired the route to India when he sailed around the Cape of Good Hope, at the southern tip of Africa in 1487. Eventually, King Manuel I of Portugal asked Da Gama to continue Dias’ explorations in 1497.  With the order from his king, Da Gama sailed from Lisbon on July 8, 1497 with four ships and about 170 men.
