VAARANAM AAYIRAM PROPOSAL SCENE MOVIE

Here he amazes everyone with his side stories too. It starts with a highly sepia'ed touch in the beginning, reminiscent of video cameras in charlie Chaplin movies and then moves on to 1980s look and feel.

VAARANAM AAYIRAM PROPOSAL SCENE MOVIE

Here the contours of the movie keep changing with time. Right from Alien 3 (which won the best cinematography Oscar) to Panic Room (where we see that single shot sequence progress from the 3rd floor down the house int the key hole, out of the hole and into the window) he has this unique style of visualising the movie. It adds so many layers of complexity to the movie and makes every scene seem rich.Дavid Fincher's presentation techniques is always unique. While we are not told repeatedly that Benjamin is ageing downwards, it is sort of there as an undercurrent during all the events we see. Then, as she grows old, he 'grows' into a teenager, a toddler and an infant. He meets a 5 year old girl when he is 90 and later marries her when their ages intersect in their 40s. He lives his life adventurously taking his chances and flowing the way of the wind a'la Forrest Gump (The movies share the same screen writer). While externally he seems to grow in reverse - internally mind wise he seems to be growing normally. Benjamin lives the early part of his life as a doddering old man in wheel chairs with arthritis, deafness and teeth problems. It is a curious story because the central character is born as a 95' ish old man. It seeks to inspire, put life into perspective and there were several moments where I struggled to fight back tears. There are some movies that leave you with a rush of adrenalin and some with a lump in your throat. The story itself while being extremely unique and curious is also presented in a fascinating manner. The story of Benjamin Button is adapted from a short story by Fitzgerald of the same name. Ever since I saw se7en in Santham (1995 - it ran for a week there) I have been a fan and he has continued to out-do himself movie after movie. I wouldn't be surprised if this swept the Oscars. There was not a dry eye in the house and when the movie ended the claps flowed from the audience spontaneously. It fundamentally deals with the ephemeral nature of life and leaves a permanent impression in our minds. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen.

Show extreme poverty and exploitation juxtaposed with India's riches again and again - check. Show the cliched and boring Taj Mahal to the white man - check. Overly optimistic and positive ending that shows that the wronged deserve their luck however far- fetched it might sound - check. Bollywood masala (nonsensical love and stereotypical gangsters) - check. A kid from slums has nothing to loose so will run with the vagaries of life - check. Show extreme gore being committed to earn money - check. Muslims (replaceable with any minority) are oppressed - check. Hindus are bad (that is the only acceptable secular view nowadays) - check. Indian teachers are dhoti wearing kid-beating people - check. The cute (and he is super super cute and lovable - I have to give that) innocent kid who is wronged by destiny of life - check. Show extreme and unbelievable poverty to shock the white man - check. The stereotypes are presented in a checklist fashion. If an Indian had directed it - it would have not been this successful. If people start reading athi- bhayankaramulu philosophical undertones into it - it is nonsense.ДЄll the stereotypes that the west associates with 'poverty', 'street fighter kid', and 'India' etc are here in this movie. If this movie is seen as a 2 hour stereotypical B ollywood fantasy - it is thoroughly entertaining. I strongly believe that there is no 'real' India or that there are so many 'real' Indias that it is not worth examining which is more real. Something that has escaped me and the zillions of other people where have grown up in that country. Apparently, these people are trying to tell me that have lived and experienced a nuance regarding India's poverty. There was a time when I drunk the kool aid and all this was nice to talk about. I am bored of people in west developing this habit of telling Indians that the India of the slums is the real India. We had the 'black' Oscar year, the 'gay' Oscar year, so maybe its time for the sweetly timed ' Mumbai' oscar year.

But somehow the kind of buzz (some even mentioned 'Oscar') this movie has been getting misled me to believe this is a movie phenomenon. So I did not think this was a great super duper uber fantastic greatest movie of all time.
