When I first read the news article that Chef André was closing the restaurant, I was intrigued because this was a man who had achieved the kind of recognition that a lot of people could only dream about. I was very curious about why he would give it all up. Jeff Cheong (now Deputy CEO at DDB Group Singapore), who’s my boss, was with me at the time,...
When I went to film school in Ngee Ann Poly, I got quite good results. In fact, I was the “golden graduate” of the year. It was a huge surprise and encouragement because I never really did well in secondary school. But I became consumed with awards, and I came to a point where I had all these awards but I didn’t know whether I was doing something t...
I started a few social initiatives, one of which is While You were Sleeping. I was in university then and, you know university in Singapore, we’re all very gung-ho, study until very late, then sometimes sleep in the school library. People were saying the next generation of Singaporeans is very selfish, we only look out for ourselves. One of my clas...
Many people asked me – Chef being such an OCD person, did he change a lot of things in the film? You know, after the filming process, Chef didn’t really follow up. I don’t think he even realised it was going to be a feature film in the theatres; he probably thought that this was going to be a Youtube video, five minutes, six minutes tops. When we p...
The olive tree for Chef André was something that reminded him of his past in France. If you were to ask me about where I came from, I’m reminded about a wall. Since young I’ve had a bad habit of drawing on walls. That caused a lot of grief to my parents. They later taught me to draw on my own wall, and not other people’s walls. There was a point in...
I was very impacted as a young boy hearing Bible stories in Sunday school. They directed me to God, who He is. That resonance has lasted since then. As we grow up as adults, we are also very connected to stories. And I think it’s important for a lot more Christian storytellers to rise up. The Bible is one huge story book, a series of letters to us,...
My parents are very firm believers and since young they committed me and my older brother to God. When we were young, my dad had to work overseas, and I remember my mum, a housewife then, had to lug me and my brother to church alone. At that time we didn’t have a car. And I think her commitment to her faith inspired me and my brother. But, as with ...
Yes definitely. I think failures are something that needs to be expected. But if we view failure as a stepping stone, and a way to challenge our faith sometimes, it actually makes you stronger. One of the things I’ve learnt is that a lot of people can handle failure quite well. I think not a lot of people can handle success well.
A highlight reel? Maybe what it would look like is celebrating the low moments that I’ve gone through and recognising that even in those low moments God is there. So my highlight reel would really be my lowlights! André and His Olive Tree is now showing inGV cinemas and The Projector.
