A movie made by India’s finest director Mani Ratnam featuring the most talented actor Kamal Hassan and having its music composed by the one of the best music directors Illayaraja was very much high on expectations. The product was nothing short of sheer brilliance. Nayagan had got it all right!! It is almost fifteen years since the movie hit the big screen‚ but even today it is the most talked off movie in film circles. It was supposed to be filmed on the lines of another great English movie‚ Godfather

The movie‚ Gallipoli‚ is about Australia’s past and the beginning of the ANZAC tradition. Gallipoli‚ the movie was released in 1981. The movie demonstrates ’mateship’. The director Peter Weir took too very different Australian’s‚ with two very different views on war and made a friendship from it‚ and the friendship grew throughout the film. Although Archy and Frank were both athletes‚ this is the only thing they have in common. As a typical Australian film‚ a main or important character die.

Crash Essay The movie Crash conveys the message that conflicts between races is due to a lack of understanding and communication. Though the central meaning of Crash is centered around race‚ I think the movie has a deeper meaning. I think this movie speaks about people in general; how we treat and interact with one another and how we think of one another. In general people think everything racist is between whites and blacks‚ but if you look closely in this movie you see minorities and people of

conjuring is a horror story with a twist of terror. In the beginning we don’t actually see the spirits‚ which allows us to use our imagination (terror). Towards the middle and the end of the movie‚ we see all the ghosts and spirits‚ but there aren’t any nasty details (horror). The conjuring is a supernatural movie‚ since we are introduced to creepy things‚ which can’t be found in the real world (unless you believe in spirits and exorcism). Under the category ‘supernatural’ we find the sub-genre ‘the

this is perhaps more true to ancient life. It is true that in the original Odyssey‚ men cried more than men now‚ (in our time).I especially loved seeing all the gods and goddesses in the movie. I liked goddess Athena a lot. She was definitely a highlight in this movie. Her eyes are very beautiful in this movie. With a twinkle in her eye‚ she sends Odysseus off to be brave because‚ it seems she is rather fond of him. Another highlight is the horse and ships. The Trojan Horse makes was very well made
