Slumdog Millionaire

Everyone agrees its a well made movie.Me too.When I first heard of it I thought of Obama,yea Barack Obama.No one knew nor heard about this movie until it started getting awards one by one.Just like Obama.

My problem is not with the movie or the story nor the actors or the directors or the production crew.The sudden international acclaim sure makes one wonder if 'other' people would think this is India although it does picture in all true ways the mentality,the tricks and the life of that small percentage of the population.But somewhere the reference to "dog" makes me uncomfortable too.With the popularity of this film comes a sense of shame.Hope the authorities are listening.But then this too shall pass.

The Britishers were on a treasure hunt in India again and look what they got!
I loved watching it.You can agree with me.

House Of Flying Daggers



Its a saga of love.In Japanese the movie is called"Lovers".With mind blowing cinematography by Xiaoding Zhao which of course won several acclaim.

Arey yaar,am not gonna review etc.Just loved the movie.The scene where both men fights for their love and how the passing hours are being portrayed by the change of climate.Another scene where the girl(Mei) is being held,hugged by Leo after 3 long years fantasizing about her and exactly that moment Mei finds out shes in love with Jin.I LOVED that scene.But i did miss the 'feel' of love between the characters other than both men jumping over the girl and making some very erotic moves. Leo's character is very interesting.I couldn't predict the last scene.Such an asshole.
Not to forget the amazing martial art display through out.Some people are so athletic,they just cant seem to play a guitar or a harp.

Anyway...am gonna watch this movie again without reading the subtitles.Just to see how the camera moves.Yea,the new craze called cinematography just started.So less time ,so much to learn.

You go watch too.Will know what am talking about.Err..If anyone reads me,that is.
