got this recent obsession in film making - wonder how long that lasts... till then planning to watch movies with a curios bent of criticality to understand what appeals to me and how these guys pull it off..
they say taht the best sign of a sucessful director is in pulling the audiences without them realising it. i think that may be a thing of past.. there's only so many twists and turns and what not, that it has become so cliched that people don't fall for that as much anymore. the new breed of directors are now conciously trying to put their 'stamp' on the movie in a way that audiences recognize the 'style' as belonging to particular director. it used to be more of cult thing earlier, nowadays its happening more in mainstream cinema as well.
frankly, i am indifferent to one style or the other - just want to see if director is able to sell the movie, without compromising on anthing obvious.
Hey there! started this blog as a place to pen the thoughts of my mind or lack of it. Will try to stick to reality.. Oh, and lack of frequent posts is not due to lack of thoughts in my head.... just the lack of clarity. Try blogging when you have different and contradicting viewpoints about the topic.....that's usually the case for me on all topics!! Warning: My blogs are mostly impulsive, so hope no permanent misunderstandings occur as a result of them. That usually happens in person.
