Dor-the movie

Finally! after a long time, i watched the movie i liked and the one i can put it here.....it is colorful, past few days i am looking for some color around me and my eyes were rejoice after i watched this movie,and cinematography is so good so does the screenplay!
Dor means string.

 In the beginning it didn't fascinate me so i wanted to stop watching, i continue just because of the scenery and then suddenly the story started picking up i completely hooked by the charm of the acting, direction and music.

breathtaking cinematography of two diverse but duly beautiful Indian landscapes.
Rajasthan and Madyapradesh
the girls who performed in the movie, are the modern girls.....

......but through out the movie they carry out amazingly good. Girish Karnad is a surprise.
it's not a typical dancing, singing bollywood movie;)  such a pleasure to watch!

weekend movie

I am a proud member of Netflix .... it's a window for me, to watch movies around the world and learn different cultures and life styles. Huge collection of 'instant play' section, so no waiting for the movie in the mail box, you don't even have to go out to get the DVD from mail box Super Huh! i know :)(who ever live in Cleveland they understand my winter blues) Friday night is our family movie night, four of us watch movie together, kids turn first and then us as a couple, before bed time and any thing interesting in netflix ( this is the plan but in reality we always don't end up watching couple movie though. we end up sleeping at the end of the kids movie). He watch movies for fun and i watch with passion as usual. my selections are kinda boring for him.

this weekend I watched Brick lane. based on Monica Ali's novel. i did not read the book, not yet, may be someday...books and movies are two different media and i decided to follow only one if the content is same. i read Namesake and i adore that book, but i don't like the movie may be because i am comparing too much with the book. so i decided choose only one, book or movie.

Immigrants are full of emotions, memories of birth place haunt you, literally haunt,  whispers of the childhood, struggle of fitting in new place, and you are the one and the only one relate to it, very personal  from person to person.

when i read the review of this movie, i thought Oh! one more movie on immigration and what's the difference they are going to show us, but from start to end it surprised me and i loved the movie. simply wonderful, heart warming and cerebral. It was a personal journey about human beings. every immigrant asks at least once themselves "where is my real home"? i personally feel home is where you found your freedom and awareness. Tannishtha Chatterjee is so talented and Sarah Gavron did a fabulous job.
