OK, admittedly, I haven't read the book, but I assumed it wasn't all that interesting to begin with, especially after watching the mediocre cruel intentions which is said to be based on the same novel. As for Dangerous Liaison, I haven't seen it, so I can't comment on it. However, watching Untold Scandals changed me. The plot is tight and very well structured, and it also helps that the acting is superb and the props (set design and costumes included) are set to perfection. And the comedy bit everyone is talking about? Well, there aren't that many and they won't get you rolling on the floor laughing, but they are witty enough to get you smiling..........Now if Untold Scandals were food, I'd say it tastes like chocolate.

A gem like this doesn't come often enough.

Warning: Spoilers
It is a short (8 minutes++) artistic piece of animation that will leave you crying. It may be in black and white (and shades of gray) and no words are spoken, but the story is so effectively conveyed, you'd be surprised of your own reaction once it ended. It also helps that the characters are beautifully drawn and the landscape is quaintly painted. I'm glad it won as Oscar. However, too bad it's gonna be hard to find. I really hope more people can get a chance to watch it. Watching it will make you appreciate your father even more, and for those who have lost a father, watching it might even be unbearable. Find it, watch it, treasure it......and remember to pass it to your children.
