  • looks like pochahontas looks very sweet

  • does anyone know the name of the soundtrack that starts around 1:55, chinese melody or something? please it is so beautiful

  • I'm proud to be a Bornean :) Kelabit :D

  • hey is this movies based on a novel if yes can you tel me it's name and authors name as well

  • still remember this movie as i was 1 of the extra actress for it and believe me all of them are humble and friendly esp d director Mark....:)

  • I'm a Bornean

  • i like how hugh looks exactly like a kid in my high school.

  • gotta stop watching movies just cuz alba is in them. must.....resist the eye candy!!!

  • ...or else I'll have to believe that ALL Englishmen are gentlemen...It also portrays the ignorance of the white man(obviously including the white women) at the time when it comes to understanding other cultures, or their perception of other cultures. This film is one my all time favourites. This film also shows how women turn their back on their own women (happens in most societies nowadays) cos things go wrong. So please get over it!!!!

  • Don't know Y every1 makes a big issue out of women & sex.Like it's degrading 4 women.R we still lvng in th 1900s or somethng?It's obvious this movie only portrays a small aspect of Sarawak & its ppl within a certain time context & society. Besides, wht I c here is Eng colonization,discrimination, classism,racism,abuse, exploitation... all th elements frm ANY society.RE:J A's character,Selima,I C a free spirited, witty & intelligent woman who made the most of her situ in a male dominatd society.

  • crita tok okey sebenarnya tp byk ilak sleeping dari dictionary nya.. apa2 pun best la :)

  • look at that shitty acting from jessica alba omg lol

  • @mrhogei

    yeah, like at 0:49 OMG that was so terrible. Im probably gona watch this for her though

  • this movie seem stupid as fuck but im probably gona watch it becouse of J A

  • meh....

  • God she was so beautiful Here was Mrs Alba at her prime fuller lips,dark hair,natural curvey. I feel now that she looks like a mainstream white girl skinny and blonde. I miss the Dark angels days she was sooo hot and authentic.

  • sengapa mat Guy Jenkin ngaga cerita...

    really humiliate me...im an iban girl..

    cita urg putih cg ndai kebukai..ia utai besaki ajk2 gaga cda ya...

    uji ngaga cita bka chronicles nyak kah..ka gk ku mda...

  • why dont they just use the real iban lady? there's a lot beautiful iban lady anyway...

  • so beautiful, I recomend it to everyone's romantic

  • yup...am also sarawakian...but from bidayuh tribe....overall the plot of the story good...i agreed with @RveltMisfits.....i dont think so that the iban women was like that.....and in this movie they didnt show the truly culture of sarawakian....:(

  • Honestly I just looked at the youtube page for this singingsophia looks like she needs some lessons putting on makeup cause she looks like a clown.

    I dont claim to be good looking..IM average for sure..But Alba is 10x better looking then sophia...

    So please dont say that you are better looking...Just look in the mirror and pop that big head of yours.

  • I wish there was a book based on this movie. Is there??

  • @michellebussey uhm no y would i be jealouse if shes not hot lol im hotter than she is lol, not that she is cause she just average looking lol

  • I cringe listening to Jessica Alba awkward accent

  • jessica alba is a ad actress, and an ugly one at that

  • @singingsophia lol sounds like someones a lil jelous

  • @singingsophia

  • Hae do not diss jesics alba. She is beyond hot thank u very much

  • In this in Sarawak??????????lol wtf???? o_O"

    one of the state in my country,Malaysia! ;D

  • POCAHONTAS!

    (now, I don't need your opinion)

  • I like looking at Jessica Alba here and on the film "Into The Blue." She's so beautiful when she's all tan.

  • I think she's fits as a dayaknese..he"

  • Comment removed

  • Emily Mortimer would definitely show her tits but I doubt if Jessica would.

    As soon as Jessica's tits starts to show, people will realize that she aint pretty at all.

    Just like what happend to Jessica Biel.

    These actress as so overrated.

  • I was there during the making of the movie at Borneo, great seeing Jessica every morning at breakfast! lol

  • a favorite actor, a beautiful love story

  • I know Simon Boswell made the music.. but i can't find it!! Can someone tell me what's the name of the main song? Thank you very much, and sorry for my english!! (I'm a Spanish girl) :)

  • IBAN is the film ..... i know .... because im Iban Iban dahula is the head hunter ... for white people who never go to borneo may know about the history of the Iban....

  • this looks awful

  • @ghfu123 Agreed. They put Alba in it to try to make a shitty movie passable.

  • @Chillajao this film was made and going public even before any people know her, even before sin city and fantastic four and whatever her famous movie exist, it's a great movie not only because of Jessica,so stop acting like a loser and Guy Jenkin is not trying to make shitty movie passable

  • LONG LIVE BORNEO ISLAND! :D

  • Watch movie Here (kan.pps.tv) and search 字典情人(The Sleeping Dictionary )

  • someone knows who wrote the soundtrack? Can't find him :( And I love the whole music!!! PLEASE HELP

  • @Miyavizmchan

    cant you read description?

    Music by Simon Boswell

  • She's gorgeous with long black hair. The fact that she's one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood is undeniable but she's indeed a terrible actress. However, this movie seems great. I love Pocahontas-like movies XD .....I'm totally watching this!

  • @BaByXgIrL pocahontas like movies hahaah so true

  • i don't think sarawak culture like this...show are lot sex scene..

  • as a Sarawakian I am upset after wathcing this movie few years ago.Asian is well known with their good manners and this lady in the movie show the opposite things.

  • wonderful film...gorgeous actor :x love it...love him:X \m/

  • amazing film.......the end few seconds of music in this trailer is very nice n melodious ...i like it..........n i want to get this

    could u plzz tell wre i get this music

  • Una Hermosa historia de amor.

    Al estilo de Diario de una Pasion

    Legends of the Fall

  • Search for "send this to JESSICA ALBA." Trust me.

  • Hermosa película, anoche la vi

  • Great Movie !

  • I think this movie reinforced British colonialist attitudes about "exotic native women" with Selima's character.

    For a better look at pre-World War II British Colonialism, please see "Rabbit Proof Fence."

  • actually, that's a very nice romantic story... It reminded me a bit about Pochahontas & John Smith, though, of course, there was more action & passion. Still, a good and beautiful love story!

  • I'm a Sarawakian.

    Though this movie shows a lot of sex scenes,

    doesn't mean Sarawak's women are like this.

    This is a huge humiliation for the women in Sarawak.

    I hope when you watch this movie,

    you will learn Sarawak's cultures.

    Instead of thinking otherwise.

    I was hoping this movie shows more of Sarawak's fighting spirit instead of this rubbish.

    God bless Sarawak.

    Agi idup, agi ngelaban.

  • @RveltMisfits ahahhahahahahahahaahahahah

  • @pichhufli hahahahahahahaha budo!

  • @RveltMisfits exactly, i'm iban and our people don't act like that,honestly... we don't

  • @RveltMisfits same here m a sarawakian dude..well half iban..n yup u cudn't have said it any better.

  • @RveltMisfits

    this movie is amazing, the culture of Sarawak, the long houses, everything!

    A very beautiful country! Love much.

  • @RveltMisfits Yeah, well the director must have been a man. sorry

  • @RveltMisfits I'm a Sarawakian too. I agree with some of the things you said. however, i watched this movie for its entertainment value. I am aware of the historical inaccuracies portrayed in the movie as they could mislead the uninformed viewers thinking that Iban women were like that in the past. it was sad that the movie was not really shown in Swk. nevertheless, i enjoyed the movie very much (who wouldn't, with Jessica Alba in it!). Who would best depict Rentap in the next Swk epic movie?

  • @RveltMisfits and here i was , trying to get a girl from your country.. hmm

  • @RveltMisfits oh shush. you should be honored they picked someone as beautiful as jessica alba to represent your ugly people

  • @RveltMisfits I absolutely loved this movie. I'm a mixed Eurasian myself so I guess in a way I could relate. To me, I appreciated every little part of The Sleeping Dictionary. It's a real movie that depicted what could happen in reality. I learned Sarawak's culture and I believe that it's something beautiful that deserves to be preserved by its people. I loved that they show how 2 different people could find love in spite all odds. Definitely rate it 5 stars!

  • @RveltMisfits Also, I do not believe that it showed sex scenes as it were a major part of the movie. To someone who appreciates arts, it's counting the entire piece as a beautiful work of art, rather than looking at just a minor detail of it. :) It didn't come off as Sarawak's women being generalised poorly at all.

  • @RveltMisfits lol newb

  • @RveltMisfits it doesnt mean anything about Sarawak's women,pwople have homones regardless of race there is nothing wrong with sex

  • @RveltMisfits *rentap*

  • The movie is terrible, really. The only reason to see it are the nude sex scenes, (obviously done by a body double).

    Still they're hot as hell, but you don't have to suffer through the whole thing to see them. Just look it up online.

    As much as Jessica is one of the worst actresses out there, she's also one of the sexiest, so she can get away with it and still get roles. S'ok though, I still love her!

  • lmao, wtf

  • haha,

    it wasn't her in those scenes

  • @Q36BN ya it is if u see the uncut verision

  • @Q36BN how is that?

  • @Q36BN lol exactly lol

  • @Q36BN fuck ); hell ill fap to it anyways

  • i dont care wat anyone says this is a good movie and jessica alba is a good actress!!!!!!!!

  • My names Salima!!! Except hers is spelt Selima. Awesome I get to hear Hugh Dancy say name lmao :P

  • This movie blows!

  • 2.00 marriage material pic

  • 2.20 marrage material...i go crazy when i see that pic

  • I can't take her seriously. She really ruins it.

  • i can already tell whats gonna happen in the whole movie...typical love story

  • the movie looks horrible

  • this movie is amazing !

  • Really. i dont know but our teacher is gonna show it to us anytime this january2010 and i doubt the boys are gonna like it for its bedscenes

  • her hotness will carry this movie

  • OOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAO

  • Looks stupid

  • wow, a beautiful woman offers herself. and the man says no it's not proper. mda.... what a crock of shit.....

  • .............*&&$%#$@!!

  • The musics very beautiful.  This may sound weird but it reminds me of a white man looking down upon a beautiful gypsy young women.

  • jessica is daring and liberated..in what country they shoot this movie..?

  • Sarawak, Borneo. It's a part of Malaysia.

  • she an awful actress so not worth anyleading role. shes attractive but she completlly over rated

  • sie

  • the cutiest girl in this world

  • جميل

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH Q36BN...i watched this movie a long time ago and had forgotten the name but now i can look it up and watch it again.

  • it's so romantic ~ i just love it <3

  • Great movie-----

  • Some of the scenes are even shot at The Hilton Batang Ai Resort.........

    wat a shame..........

    y didn't they attest 2 the original traditions of the Ibans?

  • face off bitch alba is such a amazing so shut the fuck up if ur words trying to me...

  • It looks like pochantas. Not saying it's not good. That's just what it looks like.

  • i follow u, english guy girl from traditional sort of village

  • she is not the world's greatest actress... but there is no way you could call her 'ordinary'.

  • @Rachel130989 she is not even an actress

  • some trailer arent really good in showing the film and jessica alba isent a bad actrice,if you look at the date this film was made youl see that its 2002 maybe she wasent so good then but now other story

  • omg this movie is so romantic

  • No offense, but Jessica Alba is a terrible actress...

  • Oh my.. she really is..

  • You're right snergs, Alba is only goodfor her pretty looks, not for acting. She is not much of a good actress.

  • She's awful, anyone who thinks otherwise is charmed by her good looks!

  • im gona watch this right now!!looks good

  • it looks really good and romantic! she is soooo pretty!

  • I just saw this movie last week on the IFC channel. I am a fan of Jessica Alba and I thought she was magnificent in the part. I also feel she's not Asian but more of a Polynesian beauty here. Why must she be typecast in only American movies. You know that old saying: "opposites attract" and boy did they ever. I loved everything about this movie and anything Bob Hoskins is in is gonna be great. Hollywood makes nothing but T&A movies with the same ole young faces and NO STORYLINE.

  • jessica alba as asian... hmm..

  • No offense to the lovers of this film, but seriously the trailer looks ridiculous!

  • i like that jessica alba learn how to speak iban, the problem is that how they pronounce and that is not the proper cloth they should wear. when they talk or say the line, it like humiliate my race(iban). who teach them? and the slang is so wrong. but i'm proud that jessica abla is one of the actress.

  • Its like the movie "Anna and the King", only the other way around...i loved this movie...

  • this movie is amazing !!! really beautiful !!:D

  • I love Jessica Alba but what a ridiculous idea for a film...

  • Me Gusta ver Jessica Alba en esta pelícola , eeemmwaa

  • omg i wanna see this movie but i can't find it anywhere.

    Does anyone knows where i can get it?

  • isn't it still here?

  • mediabox86 has this movie and quite a few others too hope you enjoy :)

  • this movie is one of the best movies i have seen in a long time

  • Life its hard, Sargeant York,,,

    Life its hard...

  • Well..if you said so.. sweet uncledavey, I'm afraid you won't be sleep with anybody in the rest of your life.. ckckck.. poor baby.. =(

  • ???

  • As we said...Monty Python was only an accident...

  • Much like Windscale, and both are still being decommissioned.

  • It's so true to life! This is EXACTLy how we forged an empire.

  • hahahaha!!

  • Thanks so much for your comment, it made me come back and rediscover this amazing gem on youtube which I had completely forgotten!

    God Bless British Imperialism!

    God Bless The Hopkins!

    This film looks dreadful on all levels...

  • Yes...the same sarcastic and satirical point of view of Gladstone, Disraeli, Kipling, Margareth Thatcher and Blair...

    Its a shame that the rest of the world cant appreciate that humour who were understanded only about the point of the gun....

  • Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You forgot to mention of course, John Major! Hahahahahaa!!!!!

  • Well, dear uncledavey, you must be the great great grand children of Conan The Barbarian !!

    Mwhahahahaha !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Did Conan play for the Barbar's?

  • Definitely not a true life !!

    What do you know about it ?

    I guessed you know nothing at all !!

  • I know that. Amazingly I wasn't born yesterday.

    I'm British. We are famous for having a sarcastic sense of humour. And the ability to differentiate between statements based on their circumstances in order to evaluate whether they are being made as fact in veritas or as a point of satire or sarcasm for the purpose of humour.

    I'm guessing you don't know anything about that...

  • Ow, I'm sorry, I don't know anything about it indeed.. that's why I want to ask you about that..

    You mean that you peoples forged an empire by Sleeping Dictionaries??

    *laugh hysterically*

  • I would offer to sleep with you but..."I...wont....till....I get....married"

    This film is a piece of wood and I can't see it for the splinter in my eye!

  • omg this is the most amaizing trailer I have ever seen (L)
