Movie Reviews-1

 




Managed to watch nearly 4 movies last one week.All on Amazon Prime.
I enjoy watching Malayalam movies, so caught up with "Joji" and "Nizhal".
"Joji" a remake of Macbeth. Brilliant performance by Fahadh Fazil. Imagine him losing so much of weight to fit in that role. He is one of my favorite actors.
"Nizhal" a thriller to the core.The climax was nail biting.
I am missing nature very much so ended up watching two feel good romantic movies. One is based in Ireland and the other in Italy.
"Wild Mountain Thyme"....what a lovely movie! The Irish landscape took my breathe away. Emily Blunt looks gorgeous in her rustic look. The title song left a sweet feeling of joy.
"All Roads Lead to Rome" this one took me by surprise. Ah that old woman who plays the mother of the hero, was a joy to watch. A heck of a lady. And the panorama of the beautiful vineyards left me in awe.
In between I caught up with a heartwrenching series "The Vineyards", went on a binge watch. This is such a classic. A must watch for all the diehard classic movies lover.
Oh I forgot! I even watched "Sherni". Vidya Balan is very realistic in her performance as a divisional forest officer.. It is based on the case of "Avni" the tigress.

Beware

 The Sunday Muse




My brother, 

Why is that I suffer and you win?

I was born way before you,

I roamed and lived happily for thousand years

My carefree life became a burden

The day you evolved through the ribs

Your hunger to possess

Broke our mother layer by layer

You emptied her womb 

Leaving it dry and desperate

Why are you digging your own grave and mine?

What can stop you from these suicidal tendencies?

How much is enough to fulfill your greed?

Can you stop a minute, think and act wise?

We belong to the same mother

Whereas, I struggle to survive in the wild

You breathe artificial air in your air-conditioned hole

The Damocles sword is hanging, my brother!

The day is not far when you will face the same fate as mine...

Wheel of Destiny

 Sunday Muse




Swirling through sweet life

in a timeless speck of dust

there is a constant struggle.


Molding destinies

with uneven boundaries

hope hangs in between life and death.


The tears of existence

soak in the process of creation and destruction

challenging and daring to exist, to hope and to breathe.


Nothing can destroy

the ingenuity of one's strength

in the aging hands of  an experience.

Time to Understand Life

 Sunday Muse-163


                                                          


Soft pedaling silence

moves on the tips of  fingers

joy dances on the strings.


The pain vanishes

in melodious tunes

life a parable.


Long forgotten times

yearningly swirl in the eyes

life in the crisis.


Healing through music

brings more joy without people

silence speaks louder.
