Kak ya provyol etim letom (2010)
Arctic Artistic Perfection
This film is a must watch for any film enthusiast.Shows the power of camera.The near perfect acting by all the cast(even if the number is just 2) makes this one a memorable experience.
A stunning drama on human emotions,relation and communication shot with breathtaking visuals. The plot is simple and the development happens in almost seamless manner through powerful visual story telling, dialogues and voice acting.You will struggle to find any other film which captures the stunning beauty of Arctic like this film does.
Another thing to note is the awesome use of sound in this film.Whether the radio, or nature or the sound of water or boat,the sound department has done more than what many expects out of it.
Except for sexual relations, almost all human character/emotions/expression can be seen in this film- fear, lies, friendship, boss, freedom, celebration, learning, longing, tension, enmity, guilt, grief, childish, lazy, discipline, compassion, forgiveness and much more. And to imagine all these have been achieved by just 2 characters alone is a majestic achievement in itself.
One of the best films of 2010.Truly original.
Loong Boonmee raleuk chat (2010)
live,die and take rebirth inside cinemas
Saw this movie in IFFK 2010 where Apichatpong was one of the Jury members. A one of a kind psychedelic experience.A study into life, death and rebirth.This movie's direction happens in viewers minds.So if u a wants the story to be told like ur old granny does, better stay away. This movie experience differs from individual to individual. Its like a mystical poetry written on silver screen. The digestion happens only after watching the whole movie or may be days/weeks after it or may be it never does. my advice is to watch the directors 'tropica malady' first and then pack a lotta brains and a little patience and go for this movie. Those who did not like, this may be the reason 1.Cant stand slow paced movies 2.Left their brains at home 3.Culture shock
