Color of Paradise



Another Iranian Movie- I really don't know why am i attracted so much towards the movies directed by Maid Majidi. They are so silent but yet leaves such an impact in you. And , you go to bed with feel-good mood and a believe in god attitude and love all attitude. Atheists - Even if you don't believe in god, you would start believing in you.This movie is about a blind young kid who returns to his native village for his summer vacation when his 'school for blind' in the city closes for 3 months. His Father's motive is to get rid of this kid so that he could marry another woman. The kid is counting the minutes when he waits for his dad to pick him up from the school. He is so desperate to visit home back and play with his sisters and granny.

Couple of scenes that brings out the humanity in you touched me the most - few excerpts - (1)when he senses a little bird lying hurt in the ground and takes it back to the nest, (2)when he says his blind carpenter boss - no one likes him & they want to get rid of him because he is blind, (3)when he gives souvenirs to his sisters and granny and tells his granny her hands are the most beautiful in the world.(4) The most most lovely dialogue that he utters - I would try each and every attempt to reach the hands of God until he reaches me out.

Mann - I just feel like why are there more number of blinds. Why do we have to just bury those precious eyes in the ground and leave it to vultures rather than to someone of our own kind(human kind). I don't know if some one might read this blog. If you do even by accident - please please recommend your fellow mates to enroll in eye donation / organ donation wherever possible. I am not promoting any group, any organization - just for the sake of humanity to prosper and everyone lead a better life. Let your eyes live longer than you do.Live and let others live. Stay Happy, Keep Smiling. Later - tataa.

Baran

This time, it is an Iranian Movie - Baran. I just came out(of youtube) watching this excellent movie. Some movies are so magnificent with all colors, lights, stunts, stealing your heart. There are also movies that is silent but yet powerful than the first kind of movies. Baran is one such of that kind and no wonder it makes you feel so good and keeps you silent. The movie is all that shows about true love - No hatred, No fights, No kisses, dances, romantic scenes (or) whatsoever you expect in a love movie. This is still a love movie but that runs in the back ground.Watching such movies helps me understand world history better - Soviet Union's attack on Afghanistan and the life of Afghans after the invasion was over. Lateef, a teenager(Iranian in the movie) is attracted towards Baran (Afghan girl). When he knows about her family condition, he starts helping her without she knowing about all this. Reviews (or) previews of such movies are wonderful. But, you know what - the movie is far far amazing. The movie ends with Baran(rain - thanks to wiki for enlightening me that Baran is the persian word for 'rain') pouring down to earth. Thanks to Majid Majidi, the director for giving everyone an oppurtunity to cherish true love and lead the way.

Baran - Not just a movie but an awesome lesson and an example of true love that still exists in this world although we do not see many. Take Care. More later with another movie / thought.

Wind Struck


Back again after a loooong while.

This time, its again with another Korean Movie - "WindStruck". Yes, it struck hard and leaves a huge impact in my mind. Before entering the Wind story, Life since the last post has been a roller coaster as it is supposed to be. Clearing a certification exam, rise in the patience level, few driving lessons, reviving good old days with *** and so on...Let's get back to the main track. The movie is pretty much simple but awesome. Couple of scenes here and there in the movie brought those emotional feelings to foreground. These stuff usually run in the background especially for guys like me. Try to watch the movie. Movie can be watched with subtitles in Youtube. Thanks to my friends(whom i do not even know) living somewhere in the world but making me happy by uploading such wonderful movies.

What else could i say. Just one thought before i sign off until sign back(I really dont know when would be that.)
"The discipline you learn and character you build from setting and achieving a goal can be more valuable than the achievement of the goal itself. " - Bo Bennett
