Johnny – Mahendran
This film made me wonder about the death of idealistic characters in today’s cinema and the death of a certain kind of drama.
Andha Naal
There’s a terrific scene in which there’s a university debate to decide if students must boycott college during the independence struggle.
Not Ghatham ghatham: Or Why Baba deserves a second chance
Watching the film was a magical experience for me.
Memories of Murder
It was showing us how the investigators (and thereby the audience) cannot help but bring in their own stereotypes and draw their own narratives around the crime.
Kadhalum Kadandhu Pogum
I love the way Vijay Sethupathi’s character Kathir is built up in this film. We don’t get any flashbacks.

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.
