13 Years of Shutter Island

"Shutter Island" is a masterful psychological thriller that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end. Director Martin Scorsese delivers a haunting and atmospheric film that's as suspenseful as it is thought-provoking.

The film follows U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his partner Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo) as they investigate a missing patient at a hospital for the criminally insane located on Shutter Island. As the investigation unfolds, the duo finds themselves drawn into a dark and twisted world of conspiracy, deceit, and psychological manipulation.

DiCaprio delivers a powerful performance as Teddy, a man haunted by his past and plagued by his own demons. The supporting cast, which includes Ben Kingsley and Max von Sydow, adds to the film's complexity and keeps viewers guessing until the very end.

What sets "Shutter Island" apart from other thrillers is its ability to weave a complex web of reality and illusion. As the investigation progresses, the lines between what's real and what's imagined begin to blur, leaving viewers questioning the truth behind every twist and turn.

Overall, "Shutter Island" is a riveting and intelligent film that's not to be missed. Its gripping storytelling, powerful performances, and stunning visuals make it a standout in the genre and a must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers.

South Korean Movies and it's Best of all Time.( Part 1)

South Korean cinema has a a rising graph. They both maintain Americanization and traditional. It is also known the fact that South Korean cinema has suffered a lot until today. With the division of the country in to two in 1950, everything started. The people of Korea lived the horizons of love that was irreversible as a result of the civil War. The society, which give importance to culture, knew how to fill the movie theatres even though it was war and persecuted.


"Chunhyang-jon", a remake of Lee Kyu-hwan in 1955, broke a great track record by attracting two lakh people to move theatres in two months. The Korean miracle was beginning. Just a year later, Byung-il Lee's Comedy £The Wedding Day"received international awards, making South Korean cinema recognisable. The "Housemind" and Ki-mok Yoo's "Aimless Bullet" were produced in the years 1960-1961, the best known Korean films of all time. It was a turbulent year when the political events coincided with the rise of 1970. The single man situation brought state control and censorship mechanism in cinema. Propaganda films where released, but the expected attention was not achieved.


In 1973, Park Chung-hee took over. In this films defending state ideology, which is no different from propaganda films,were shot. This period ended in a bloody way. In 198, Im Kwon-taek reminded the South Korean film industry at film festivals, which was forgotten with the movie  "Mandala"years later. In 1988, censorship was finally lifted and directors found a more free working space.In the 2000s, films like "My Sassy Girl" and "My Wife is a Gangster" fascinated American viewers and American cycles had to be done urgently. Achievements brought successes. Until 2017, South Korean directors continued to make steadily scrapped films. Let's take a look at the the "Memories of Murders" that came out in 2003 after this short historical journey to South Korean cinema and let us with witness why South Korean cinema is so successful.


I have repeatedly emphasised that the qualities of South Korean cinema, which has something to boost about. Certainly the most popular export product is thrillers, to which a group of filmmakers from that country gave their specific authorial stamp. The first part of my new blog "The Best Korean movies" starts with "Memories of Murders" which was released in  2003 and "Mother" released in 2009.

1. Memories of Murders (2003)




The movies  is set in rural South Korea in 1986. Two murders of young girls have occurred investigating a tandem of local detectives Park Du Men (Kang-ho Song) and Cho Jong Ku (Rie-ha Kim). Their investigation has no technique, they do not stand for their intelligence, but they use brutality, with no practical results. A more capable and experienced detective Soe Tae Jun( Sang-kyung Kim) arrives to assist them, and a third murder case is soon underway...


Detectives have the enthusiasm to track down the perpetrator, but their efforts are hampered by sloppy police actions, unable to cope with delicate procedures for securing location and evidence. That enthusiasm over time boils down to beating suspects and drawing confessions. With the arrival of the city detective, their methods are improving, but they still have no perpetrator. Although the subject matter is dark, black scenes are flowing through the scenes, mostly based on the detritus of our detectives. A typical example is the scene when they comment that the killer leaves no hair and one of them suggests searching a Buddhist monastery for a waxing monk.



The scenario is based on the true story of the supposedly first serial killer in South Korea's history. When compared to modern forensics and criminal science, you have the impression that the operation happened a hundred years ago. This is where a lot of tension lies, because detectives cannot send each other a message during an ambush, and DNA analysis was at its inception. Our protagonists are sitting at a desk, typing reports on a typewriter, and photos of suspects are glued to notebooks with a brief description - all this does not promise great efficiency.

Moving along the line of less resistance, detectives are willing to bypass the rules to close cases. They follow local rumors regardless of the evidence and focus on a mentally ill man who was obsessed with one of the girls killed. The arrival of a city boy who has different ideas about how to investigate cases creates a rivalry between the detectives. However, it is not in the realm of a genre-cliché when the town guy discovers the quality of rural detective work. While the former are constantly throwing out ideas, the newcomer examines the evidence, stares at the photographs until late into the night, keeps her quiet and mostly thought to herself. One of the scenes breaks down that rivalry when everyone together realizes how helpless they are.



The director has created a real masterpiece of rhythm, tone and atmosphere. He used numerous landscapes of dark fields and grasses that sway slowly in the wind, as well as the surroundings of the factory and a small village with narrow streets. Mixing locations, he also mixed comic detectives with exciting scenes of police work, but also with some disturbing sequences. In the background, he also displayed a sense of threat that prevailed at that time in South Korea, where children practiced civil defense operations, in anticipation of attacks from the north. The situation was also reflected in police work, as people focused on the demonstration, as if desperately seeking a break from the homicide investigation.

It is easy to forget in thrillers that the victims were once alive. This movie is not like that, it never loses sight of that fact and that is one of the reasons it is so effective. The author masterfully captures the horror of a violent, almost surgically effective death and how detectives enter the world of victims while viewing the world from their perspective. Given that they are not accustomed to such events, the fear that the detective team feels on rainy days is almost palpable, and so stands out their humanity, which is another of the pluses of the film. The rain thus became a warning sign, bringing with it tension and death.

2.Mother (2009)




Mother is a daring and dark portrait about this universal maternal feeling, this time accompanied by a turbulent plot that shakes the viewer and invites us to reflect and dig with detail and attention to the details of a terrible event while being guided by the Sore eyes of a mother. She is called Hye-ia and her son is her greatest treasure; that feeling is felt from the very beginning of the film when, while he deftly cuts bundles of a kind of plant, his eyes rest on the innocent fiddling his son makes with a dog; An unexpected incident occurs and she, regardless of her status, rushes to her aid. That is enough to understand the psychological development and character of the protagonist of the story. Shortly after his son (Do-Joon) is accused of committing a cruel murder, and found guilty without further formalities; It is there when the drama becomes more scary, bloody, violent and ruthless, when the deepest human resources are unraveled in order to obtain what is desired regardless of the rocks that the road offers to overcome.



The director offers us a brilliant study of characters, beings known to all who are subjected to horrific episodes; shows us a mother's dispute over her son so that he can be released from the accusations made against him; It shows us that for the love of a parent there are no limits. Yes, because that is the central issue after all. A mother who by all means looks for a way to show everyone the innocence of her son. Bong Joon-ho bets on the rescue of a battered figure by many, and relegated to the background in most Asian countries, when in fact he deserves exaltation for all that he is and represents. Through the extraordinary interpretation that Bin Won offers us we perceive the helplessness she conceives, we feel her pain and despair going through her crowded body, the fragility in the solitude of her room, the humiliation to which she is submerged, the fear of unknown, risking even his dignity and his own life without measuring the results. All this in a collage of genres that range from drama to thriller, even playing some black comedy. The approach that is given to the investigation, treating the police as morons, and which is led by the defendant's mother makes the game interesting and effective, capturing the viewer's attention, making it part of this overwhelming intrigue.

The woman walks through a thick field unknown to everyone, including her. Your mind is elsewhere, shipwrecked, transported to another time. He wants to forget. He has got there and does not want to remember how. Is mother. He is over sixty years old, and in charge of the care and protection of his only son, a twenty-seven-year-old with delayed problems that also represents a danger to an entire community. Dance to the rhythm that the melody sounds; I hadn't done it long ago, maybe I was busy unraveling for giving her offspring a better quality of life, or just following in her footsteps so she wouldn't get into big trouble or have problems with the authorities. Even at her age, she is very active, she strives to fight and not let her guard down; many, possibly, would have surrendered to abandonment, would have pronounced a strong and loud “enough is enough”; but she is still standing; Because she is a mother. What is a mother capable of doing for love? It is the first thing I wonder at the end of watching the South Korean film Bong Joon-ho, because during his more than one hundred and twenty minutes I have been shaken and slapped by his rudeness and at the same time I have admired the beauty and sacrifice of a mother to protect to his offspring to the strongest and toughest consequences.

PERANBU (Indian Movie(Tamil).2019)







PERANBU;Touches The Heart

Directed by: RAM

Duration: 2hr 27mins

Cast: MAMMOOTTY
          SADHANA
          ANJALI
          ANJALI AMEER
          SAMUTHRAKANI

SYNOPSIS:

Ram tells the life of a daughter for twelve chapters on various aspects of nature. In PERANBU Ram has more emotional moments than the national award winning Thankameenkal(Goldfishes).

Mammootty is the father of a girl who goes through a special physical and mental condition called spastic paralysis. He has been working in the Gulf for more than ten years. In such a situation, leaving his daughter and himself and going with another man is a serious blow to his life. Later, the situation of her daughter is completely prepared for him.As a single parent, Amudhvaan is the psychological tension faced by his mother, who is known by all as the Papa and whose physically and mentally challenged daughter is entering into adolescence.

There have been no films or characters in the recent past to challenge the actor in Mammootty. But the director was able to make the best use of the infinite possibilities of that great actor through his parents. Ram has made an offer to meet Mammootty once again in films like Thaniyaavarthanam and Amaram. Mammootty portrays the beauty of a girl whose daily routine is limited by the limitations of her father.

Sadhna, who came to the cinema through Ram Thangmeenkal, is the daughter of Amudhavan. Sadhana has completely assimilated her character which is very difficult to act. This girl has been struggling physically and mentally to portray a teenage girl going through spastic paralysis. The chemistry between Mammootty and Sadhana gives emotional weight to the audience. The cinematographer Theni Eshwar has been instrumental in bringing the film to life through various aspects of nature. Then as the chapters change, the background and the landscape of the story changes, and Theni Ishwar manages to cope with the rhythm of the film. Yuvan Shankar Raja's contribution to the spirit of the story is also appreciated.

May Mammootty Bangs the National Award for best Actor for the fourth time..

The Fountain (Movie 2006)


     (Image courtesy:slantmagazine.com)


Direction: Darren Aronofsky
Duration: 1hr 36min
Genre: Sci-Fic;Drama
Cast: Hugh Jackman
          Rachel Weisz
          Ellen Burstyn
          Mark Margolis
          Cliff Curtis
Synopsis:
The Fountain manages to unite three stories intertwined five hundred years apart on a single axis. The first story takes place in Spain in the 16th century, the second story today and the third story in space five hundred years later. The common ground of each story can be summarized as ways to achieve immortality.

Tommy, a scientist who is the backbone of the film, is experimenting with monkeys to find a cure for the brain disease that slowly kills his wife Izzy. In one of these experiments, he sees that he stops aging when he injects a liquid from a tree in Central America that has not been calculated. Although this is a revolutionary discovery, it will not heal Izzy. Izzy, on the other hand, is writing a 16th-century novel Ağ The Tree of Life li called The Fountain. But he seems to have already realized that he can't finish this novel. Then we go to the future, when Tom (Tommy's future state) travels through a sphere of space with that possible tree of life. Here, Tom is looking for ways to be together forever with his beloved wife. And there comes a moment that today, past and future are intertwined. As if there was one truth, one wanted at all times.

There is no long life and many experiences in this film, although the search is immortality. So there are no complicated events. There are concepts that can be generalized to every age. Everything can fit easily like pieces of a puzzle. And in the end, it makes the movie say; If the past is Izzy's book, and what Tom has done today in the implicit today is actually a single story, and Izzy writes it.

Incendies (Movie 2010)


                         (image Courtesy:imdb)
        

Director: Denis Villeneuve

Duration: 2hr 11min

Genres: Mystery Drama 

Starring:  Mustafa Kamel
                  Remi Girard
                  Hussein Sami

                
Synopsis:

An equation or perhaps a mathematical, precise, relentless, fascinating and inevitable theorem. This is the feeling that gives the vision of The woman who sings by Denis Villeneuve (Quebec French-speaking Canadian), a real big surprise at the Venice Film Festival which confirms the growth of an author who with Polytechnique (unpublished by us) had proved a talent Interesting. The film is the adaptation of a hit play by Wajdi Mouawad.
We are nowadays in Canada. Brother and sister (twins) find out from the will of the mother that the father they believed to be dead is actually alive and of the existence of a brother they knew nothing about. The mother, of Middle Eastern origin, has in fact lived an incredible, tragic life, of which they will discover and which we will know through a parallel journey, she in the 80s and her daughter today (who is not a researcher of pure mathematics). They will go through the same places, the same streets, in an endless cycle that is that of history and of the family, of stones and lands that are always the same, illuminated by the same sun, but bathed in ever new blood.
Childhood marks, here even branded, so strongly that, to put it in the protagonist's words, "it is a knife planted in the throat". It will take a whole life (and a testamentary will) to become truly adult, to erase the rage of a childhood of violence and to be able to rest in peace.
The film behind a fake name hides the Lebanon of the 1980s with its civil war between Christians and Muslims. Through the vicissitudes of a family, it succeeds very well in representing the religious, family, land and world division.
The woman who sings is a film that admirably succeeds in combining a mathematical rhythm, with explosions, fires of violence, which arrive almost inevitable, managing to excite us while leaving us petrified. For example, in the most beautiful moment of the film, a scene in which a bus is stopped by the Lebanese Christian Phalangists in search of Muslims. A scene that we won't reveal to you, but which is an excellent synthesis of the qualities of La donna che singing, one of the best films of the last few months.
A note of merit for the functional soundtrack and for the two women protagonists (Lubna Azabal and Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin) who are intense and fragile in their complex roles.
The film, full of events and adventures, reaches an end where the unknowns of the equation begin to be clarified, in which the mother will no longer be an unknown variable, in which an unacceptable catharsis, but in the end inevitable, remains etched in the memory along with many stages of this magnificent journey.
