Film (oh) graphy

It been long that I have written about films and maybe because I have not seen much films these day and when I say films it is about regional films not hollywood or some developed film industries. Last time the film that I wrote about was Olangthagi Wangmadasu which really impressed me with the style the film was made, it was simple with song in the first part of film and how it change in the second part of the film. As I don't have much to write about some of my mentor/teacher ask me to write about documentary film scene in our land but to be frank I'm not impressed by the way documentary are made. To me all the documentary are same where some talk about culture or dance which really irks me out so I have been postponing about writing for the documentary scene but thought I shall do that and I need to do research to do so.

But today I'm writing about the scenario of our films and where are we wrong about it infact we are not wrong many people like films which are made now and if changes happen it will be hard for the people to accept it but the people who are opposing is the educated one who stay at the middle of town and have seen many good quality films and whenever they put the disc into their machine they tried to compare with all the good films they have seen before and I admit that I used to do that but I was taught at FTII that when we watch a film we watch it like we are experiencing films for the first time and it does really help as there is no such thing called bad film only except that the producer wants to make his black in to white :)

I recently meet one film maker who really wants to make quality film and we were discussing about how can we do or whatsoever but at end we always ended up with investment,'Who will be ready to invest' so ended up deciding to make it the way it is but he is really serious about it and I hope to be able to help him out.

Next time I'm trying to write about a film called Anganba Kurao Mapan which I'm eagerly waiting for the cd to arrive
