Serenity in 2 hours

From the titles shot - the waves slowly undulating in the titles credit - and to the same one repeated in climax, Nandalala delights you with the visual and emotive content of refined cinema seldom experienced.

From the first scene where young Aswath Ram (a brilliant performance) waits for a disappeared mom, to the heart wrenching truck driver's beating of Mysskin and to the climax shot (where fittingly there is nothing dramatic), everything proceeds with a calm. You emote with the characters, but you are not distraught with their condition. That is the greatness of Mysskin!

Seeing the film was recalling Tennyson's Song of the Brook. As the story flows along like a murmuring river, you too do so. The visual narration combined with Maestro's mellifluous violin and flute compositions take the story telling to a new peak.

The film demands repeated viewing for the climax alone, as it is novel attempt to encapsule 2 hours of emotions into a single frame. It also bespeaks of the serenity of the Zen..

Just back from sathyam (escape cinemas ) .... Film was good in most places , though i wouldn't rate great - its raaja's music that carries the film forward . Amazing stuff from raja !

முதலில் இளையராஜாவின் பாதம் தொட்டு வணங்கிவிட்டு இந்த விமர்சனத்தை எழுத ஆரம்பிக்கிறேன்.

இளையராஜாவின் இசைதான் அத்தனை காட்சிகளையும் நிரப்பிக்கொண்டேயிருக்கிறது எங்கும் விரவிக் கிடக்கும் காற்று போல. சில இடங்களில் அதுவும் கொஞ்சம் செயற்கைத்தனமாய் இருந்தாலும் மனதை உடைக்கும் உளியாய் ஏற்றுக்கொள்ள முடிகிறது. வெறும் காட்சிமட்டும் கொடுத்துவிடாத நெகிழ்ச்சியை, ராஜா வலிந்து கொடுக்கிறார். உடையத் துவங்குகிறோம் நாம். குறிப்பாக மிஷ்கின் தனது தாயை பல ஆண்டுகளுக்கு பின்பக் காணும்போது, ராஜாப் பாடத் துவங்குகிறார், அப்பாடலின் முதல் வரியை. உடலுக்குள்ளும் மனதிற்குள்ளும் அப்படியே அனைத்தும் ஒரேகணத்தில் உடைந்து நொறுங்குகிறது. அதலபாதாளத்தில் வீழ்கிறோம். ராஜாவை இதற்காக பாராட்டவேண்டுமா அல்லது வேண்டாமா என்பதில் குழப்பம் மிஞ்சுகிறது.

Some of the great aural & visual experiences

1) The very first scene where you see the kid standing outside the school and with crowd going out of school. the music starts when the visual shows the kid alone , with no one to accompany him back to home .

2) When the kid ( in the night) searches for the kid who is crying and asks if he misses his mom. Central theme .

3) Quite unusually, when the policeman searches for the kid & Mysskin and finds them ..well !

4) When the kid , myskin and the physically challeneged person finds a lady physically assaulted and try to save her .

5) When in Annaivayal , in search of Myskin's mother , the entire sequence was shot like a french movie with world music .

6) The music accompanying when myskin & kid walk over the road in their journey.

7) When myskin hears the word 'amma' from one of the fellow mate and gets angry . the secene preceding that and following that = perfect.
