The caption of the movie- Brutally innocent intrigued me quite a bit. Being a die-hard Mohanlal fan who has now got around to criticize his movies offlate and not critically analyse them, i did hope that this one would be good to watch.
When I did finally watch the movie, it left me with quiet a few thoughts of the movie much afterwards, which I guess is the true test of a motion picture. Its not the script, the story , the direction or the visuals. Its the spirit of acting displayed by Mohanlal. A role written for him, showed shades of the naugthy lalettan, the ‘chetta’ Lal, the macho man LaL and the emotional Lal whom we have grown up with.
Its pure and vintage Lal, intoxicates you as the movie unfolds and explodes in some of the scenes of the movie especially when he drives the jeep with a sadistic tone and in the climax scene – which i shouldnt talk about.
It will definitely rate in LALs Top 10 movies as an actor.
Watch it if you are a LAL fan, watch it if you are a student of acting. Watch it if you want to see an actor- not acting, just living the role.
Nice post. It is always good to see people expressing themselves in different ways.
ReplyDeleteSince you seem to be associated with Management, I would like to suggest you a new magazine - PEOPLE MATTERS started by an ISB Alumni, which was suggested to me by a friend and which I have found very useful.
It deals with various important aspects of management, especially those related to Leadership & People Management, which the mainstream business publications often ignore.
It's also relatively cheap. I guess its annual subscription is about Rs. 400 (US$ 8 approx) which is even less than the cost of a standard Pizza.
Their last issue had an enlightening article by Robert Kaplan (the co-founder of Balanced Scorecard method, if you remember) where he talks about how organisations can create opportunities out of current economic downturn.
I got its subscription online through their website: http://www.peoplematters.in
If you like the magazine, kindly refer it to your friends or colleagues in the organization you work. They may be interested in subscribing to it.
Thanks
