A friend of mine gave me this link to this trailer. I was shocked to find out a producer that is brave enough to produce this movie. From the title itself I wonder if it would attract other people to watch it other than Kelantanese ourselves. A clap to the producer, at first I thought.
But after I watched it, I have a different opinion. How on earth this kind of movie would benifit the industry? and on top of that, Kelantanese ourselves who 'terkena tempiasnya'. From what I understand, there is a pair of best friend who lived in KL. They met again after years but now both of them are on different track. They have diferent life, one of them is a good guy or I would say 'orang masjid' and the other one chose to be bapak ayam. Only on the early years of staying in KL he has a good work, but soon he chose an easier way to get money, through women.
The trailer had ruined my good first impression about it. I wonder what the author is thinking of. Do they see the Kelantanese as a person who is easily change after they migrate? And do he think that a person in Kelantan only good because they are inside it and not exposed to other culture. and when they stepped out to see the real world, they would have culture shock? Is that what they are thinking of?
Kind of hard for me to accept that. But that is how other people potray Kelantanese. I see that and I hear about it. But why it is hard for me to accept that? But that is not the truth. Not 100% correct. I could see Kelantanese ara all around Malaysia, no matter where you go, you would easily find a Kelantan stall and whats more a Kelantanese right. Same thing applied when you enter any higher education instituition. You would find people speaking Kelantan dialect everywhere, and I always mesmerized by the way the true Kelantanese speak ( I am excluded, most of them called me Kelantan celup after all). Very polite and how could they speak with thatlow tone. We are everywhere and no wonder KB would be pack during Hari Raya and in return KL would be empty and you would sleep on the street if you wish to. See, that means Kelantanese are educated and have a good profession.
But maybe some of them take a wrong step and ruined the Kelantanese image. I might be biased in puting these. But that is how I potray a kelantanese, we are educated, have a good manners, and have a good quality. That is in general. Why dont this movie show our great culture like diversity range of food we have, they way the true Kelantanese talk and some other cultural activity like wayang kulit and etc. If the producer choose "budak kelantan as the title", then it should potray a good image and since it would give impact to the Kelantan image. That is what I think, and we might think differently. Help to find a good point of the movie and since I believethe producer must have a deep thought before establishing it.
Some interesting line I quoted from the movie,
"kito ni Lie, kalu jahat pun jangan halang orang nak buat baik"
"Tok Amerika doh lah kalu jadi baik"
