SINGAPORE MOVIES AT THE PROJECTOR
The arthouse cinema celebrates the nation's birthday with two very different Singapore movies: the military coming-of-age comedy Army Daze (1996, PG 93 minutes), directed by Ong Keng Sen and based on Michael Chiang's theatre play, and the political allegory The Blue Mansion (2009, M18, 100 minutes), directed by Glen Goei with the screenplay from Ken Kwek.
