I think this was a very clever movie and as Mo said, it had style. A lot of style. Balancing between reality and illusion, the movie succeeded in making my mind almost explode at some points. Very catchy they way the plot and truth are unfolded. And beautifully directed.

The movie "Searching for the Elephant" is NOT an adaptation. It is an original screenplay written by S.K. Jhung.
Please make the correction.
