Malena

"Time has passed and I have loved many women. And as they've held me close and asked if I will remember them, I believed in my heart that I would. But the only one I've never forgotten is the one who never asked ... Malena" - Malena (2000)

My most favourite sentence from Renato, the main character of the movie, though I really hate him for being such a coward. Never even spoke about his obsession toward Malena. Like at all? Stand still and  being passive when Malena was beaten up by the whole town? I know he is 12, and Malena is a 27 years old widow. But still.  He was a boy, soon to be a man. He should have done something more "significant" to protect her than throwing stones to windows, right? Duuhh. Sebel.

And the only time this boy ever spoke to Malena was just once. At the ending part of the movie. Kesel ga sih, lo. Nonton segitu panjang interaksinya cuma sekali. Pas akhir pula. Ish.
