Sleeping dictionary for english???

It was last Friday, after the Friday prayer; one of my housemate asked me “do you want to see Jessica Alba in action?”

“Jessica alba? In action?? What did you mean?” Innocently I replied.

“You should watch this” he handed me Aqil external hardisk. “Copy this movie, this is the uncensored version and enjoy youself” he smiled and walked away.

With full curiosity and innocently, I played the movie. It starts by showing an Englishman arrived in a native port somewhere in the middle of jungle in Sarawak. I dazzled. What is the significant of dictionary and Iban?? I don’t understand? But as the story goes on….

Ooooo….(an expression)

Sleeping dictionary refer to a native girl that sleep with an English officer in order to teach him the native language. And in this movie, Jessica Alba is the sleeping dictionary. Wow!!!

Just by covering half of her breast until her upper thigh with only a single ‘sarong’, omg she is so sexy. I can’t take my eyes off her.

But there is a scene that I really irritated the most, that is when Salima (Jessica Alba) make love with Tuscot (hero of the movie). This is what my housemate means by ‘Jessica alba in action’. I don’t know how to describe it. But I can conclude that it is more like watching porno than a movie. I understand the purpose of the director putting this scene. Maybe he wants to show that the native girl is not only good teaching in language but also good in bed. Moderate is enough, but not too much.

Basically it is kind of a typical forbidden love. Tuscot may have all the excitement every night, but he can’t marry Salima. This had become the main problem. Because they were truly in love, Tuscot blindly decided to marry her. But it was objected by the governor and also the tribe. So with frustration he went back to England. A year later he married the governor’s daughter and go back to Sarawak. And the stories of forbidden love start again…

The cinematography was just fine. Background of Sarawak rainforest is very attractive beside Jessica Alba. Trees, wild life, and the tribe have successful create the true experiences of Sarawak in 1930s. However this movie is lack of effective background music. Some important scenes were not supported with the exact sound. It really spoils.

Overall, I found that it is quite an interesting movie. Splendid background and attractive actress become the strength of this movie for me. Honestly it is much better than ‘the Japanese story’.

*I wish I can have a sleeping dictionary for English*
