Cinema A to Z

  1999 is largely regarded as one of the most important film years in recent memory. It included massive films that warmed the heart and soothed the head, as well as a few masterpieces that fell short. Fight Club is simply one of several films in this genre. However, the year 1999 demonstrated that we, the audience, understood what was going on. We were cool. We made The Matrix a cult classic. We were on the verge of making The Talented Mr. Ripley a $100 million film. We loved The Green Mile and Toy Story 2, and Fight Club felt like a necessary  addition to the mix to keep things balanced. Here's what sets Fight Club apart from the other films that didn't make the cut. First and foremost, studio executives were perplexed when the film based on the violent and morally ambiguous novel turned out to be vicious and morally ambiguous, despite the fact that the picture was shot on a very large budget of over $60,000,000. It's almost as if no one knew about the project until i...

  Every Cinephile agrees that the 1970 movie “The Godfather” based on Mario Puzo’s novel of the same name is a Classic. However, it’s also really well known that the film went through many struggles before its release in 1972. A struggle that not many people are aware about is the run in with the “Italian-American Civil Rights League”, led by mobster Joseph Colombo.           The league was originally formed by Joseph Colombo in 1970 to go against what he thought was racism targeted towards Italian Americans. It is however, true that Italians were subject to prejudice and racism during the time, although this had eased off during the 70s. What Colombo’s group wanted to do was censor the word “Mafia” from the media. So the film “The Godfather”- originally titled “The Mafia”- definitely got their attention. They took action by following producer Al Ruddy’s car and leaving threatening notes, as well as making threatening phone calls to pr...

  The Kashmir Files The movie is all about discrimination on the basis of caste, inhumanity, grief, anger, revenge, cruelty, fear. The movie shows a lot of horrible scenes where people are slaughtered in front of their loved ones and how brutally they are murdered to death. The movie tries to show how wrong the Muslim did but the people here forgot that there was not only one religion behind it. If Muslims killed   why didn’t Hindu came forward and saved their brothers. Its is wrong to do the crime but to be silent about it is also equally wrong. People here were victims of dirty politics played in the name of religion. Oh my God! The movie starts with an atheist, one who doesn’t believe in God. He directly questions God and asks him to repay for his losses. The movie questions the blind faith of the people and not logically thinking about it. The movie also speaks about Karma, whatever deeds you perform, you’ll face its outcome in this life only, there’s nothing before an...

          YOLO Yeh Jawaani hai Deewani ‘Life mai jitna bhi try karlo, kuch na kuch to chootega he’. So keeping this in mind, I’ve tried to write this blog from my side, out of how much I know but even if something misses out, it’s alright. The main element in this movie was surprise of destiny. Naina, who gives herself a chance out of nowhere to get out of her comfort zone and do something new when she was too scared to do it, Bunny, his ex-classmate boosted her confidence that it was very confident of her to come alone for a trek with 25 unknown people.                                           3 Idiots It shows that our education system lacks just two things  : 1) Education & 2) System  The picture has a very touchy story of a studious boy, Joy committing suicide because ...
