Caramel ....سكر نبات

I first read about this movie in Noura's blog, and i liked the story and how brave was Nadine to cast such a movie , The film got so famous that it participated in Cannes festival (March-2007) , and was sold up to 35 countries including US and major European countries.


So what made me talk about this movie ,is that they are showing it in Jordan and UAE cinemas by the end of this week ,Oct.25th ,and i was so sad to know that ,because in Qatar it'll be either late to be showed or never will be ...

some facts while shouting the movie :

• The film was released in Cannes in May 20, 2007, exactly one year after the shooting starts (May 20, 2006).
• The shooting of Caramel ended just 9 days before the Israeli war against Lebanon in July 2006.
• Other than Nadine Labaki and Adel Karam, this is the first experience in movies for the other leading role actors.
• Nadine Labaki is engaged to Khaled Mouzanar, the Music Composer for Caramel's soundtrack .
• Caroline Labaki, Nadine's sister, was the one responsible of Costume Design.

• An old clothes shop in the Beirut District of Gemmayze has been transformed into a salon where the shooting of the film took place.

Samaaa ..

Have i ever told u about sama (سما) , Hala 's younger sister ,going to be 7 months old on November the 2nd ...
So let me tell u about sama's nick name which is "toto" LOL ,yes as u read ,well the whole story started when my sister used to call her soso , and since 7ala doesn't know how to pronounce the "S" letter so she calls her "Toto " and her we began to call her with this nick name ..:D

Yesterday me and my sister were chatting and viewing the webcam ,when she was holding sama and she was -far6a 3la 7alha ,i asked my sister sho malha sama ?? She said that she's pressing the keyboard buttons with her tiny feet ,and i was like 7ayati ma a6yabhaaa ...

and then she was pulling 7ala's hair ,when she got mad and shouted "3asas" ="5alas" LOL ..

I can't wait wait till she starts talking and walking as 7ala ,and to play with each other ,i really miss the girls ....

What if your work forbidden the access to FaceBook, so you can't check during your work ?? "i guess 90% of people who are reading this note, are in their work now :)"

Baba Ali ..

"Bismillah ar-Rahmaan ar-Raheem ", thats how Ali starts his posts in his own blogs ...
OR "Asalam alaikum" is his greeting when he receives a msg from u on the facebook or wherever u can contact him ..
