Kadhalum Kadandhu Pogum
I love the way Vijay Sethupathi’s character Kathir is built up in this film. We don’t get any flashbacks.
Pannaiyaarum Padminiyum
It was heart-warming to see that the actor who played the driver role in the short film version of this, also had a character to play in the feature film.
Nandhalala – Mysskin
I still remember the day I watched Anjathey in college. It was right after I finished an exam and I was watching it alone and I was so engaged by it that I hardly noticed the three hour runtime go by.
Her
I was piqued by the film’s plotline. How can a man fall in love with a computer I thought?
Visaranai
What differentiates this film from any other routine treatment of such hard-hitting subjects is the second half.
Taxi Teheran
A film with a very simple premise. I began watching the first scene and after the conversation the self-proclaimed pickpocket has with the teacher, I got hooked.
Papanasam
Finally, here is a film in which Kamal Haasan plays a role without showing us flashes of Kamal Haasan anywhere.
Agantuk – Satyajit Ray’s Last Film
Ray has absolutely no hurry in narrating the story. It’s a relief to watch his films after all the swishes and jittery cuts of modern cinema.
Why I Loved Kaakkamuttai
As the director mentioned in an interview, there will be at least one moment that will remind you of your childhood, no matter where and how you grew up.
About Schmidt
I was hooked the moment I saw the staging of Schmidt’s last day at work and the subsequent party that he throws for his friends and colleagues.
