BOLLYWOOD CALLING
 Director: Nagesh Kukunoor |
Calling Bollywood , Seeing Bollywood!!
"Mr Subra , can i have the script please "
"Saar director Very intelligent, all in mind” Subra responded.
A satire to culture of Bollywood film
making, which has a different approach, with a great output & a large
audience waiting in a queue to get themselves into day dreaming. Either it
be a romance, fiction, sci-fi or
anything. We have people to make it and have people to buy it.
Mr. Nagesh Kuknoor from “Hyderabad blues” to “Aasheyien” made a great remark to the
conceptualize the sensitivity of things which occurs in daily life but we
ignore. I say “BOLLYWOOD CALLING” is up to it showing The Giant life of
BOLLYWOOD itself.
Looking into the terms of story
structure , it followed the nested approach
FILM WITHIN FILM , A NEW LIFE WITHIN LIFE keeping a subtle differences in
between , so that the film made by NAGESH KUKNOOR and film made by Mr.
SUBRAMANYAM starring MANU KAPOOR draw demarcation.
Instances in a Story were very general,
generic: SALIM KHAN(dialogue writer in the film "MAUT-the Death”)
maintained a kurta get up with a average length beard plus an attitude of a
writer, as being asked to weight the dialogue he says" main
tumse pyar karti hu" slowly. First Assistant camera man always
comes early to set. TARA second heroine in the film "MAUT-the death"
kept at bay in sense of importance, only defined for dance and some romance
flicks. MANU KAPOOR keeps the strength of attitude, respect beyond his peak and
gives shots with no retakes and even sometimes being judgmental on camera
angles. All this detailed nuances made the film entertaining and connecting to
us.
Overall an entertaining and informative
film with the end in song "sajni main tera deewana ..."
sung by PAT in "MAUT-the death"
and Mr Udit Narayanan in “BOLLYWOOD
CALLING”.
NIGHT AND FOG
The
Documentary “NIGHT & FOG “ revolves around the Hitler’s concentration camp
mainly aim to curb the so called “undesirable elements” as Jews, criminals
& homosexuals according to Nazi’s. Himmler took over the power under Fuhrer
to look after it and created the camp
which resulted in the most inhuman atrocities ever done in the world history.
Director ALAIN
RESNAIS , narrator MICHEAL BOUQUET
composed one of the most horrifying and naked truth of the history which can’t
be ignored in any sense. The camera takes us on the color footage in the
beginning and slowly moves around the
black and white footage that overpowers
sadism context in the film. In parallel
it explained the context of the
gradual rise in Nazi ideology and how it became so inhuman with time resulting
in harsh torture, prostitution, medical & scientific misuse on humans ,
finally landed to insensate mass obliteration . The film ends itself showing
the color footage greenery , which stands lonely today as this is the place
which was the single graveyard of
thousands innocent civilians.
Documentary rolls on pictures and some videos
rarest of the time, 1933-1945, with excellent background score and satirist
narration , keeps the track of sensitive footage comparatively low in beginning and becoming
intense as it reaches the 21st minute of its truth. At the end MICHEAL BOUQUET asks “who is responsible?”
