Movie Review: Seven Pounds: A beautiful tragic embroidery


An embroidered cloth looks a chaos of colours on one side; a child would look at it and say, what's the point? One look at the other side, where the meaning erupts before you eyes...
A tragic story of redemption, Seven Pounds unfolds scene after scene like a mystifying jigsaw puzzle. When the pieces finally fit in, is when we see the whole picture. Like we say at the blog, again and again, the best films are best experienced, so go watch the movie at a theatre near you. The less you know, the better.

Watch out for the movie reviews of these three films in subsequent posts, which I hope to post soon...

WESTEND is one of the best single-screen theater in Pune. Balcony tickets cost 50% to 60% less,70 rs to be exact, with great seats, a great screen and sound system and umpteen trailers of upcoming releases.

SOME GREAT STORIES; LARGELY AVERAGE TREATMENT: DUS KAHANIYAAN


FRIDAY, December 14
With a former workmate I am at INOX for the 7:15 pm show of this Will Smith starter. Tickets are at 160rs each, without any extra facilities, in fact the quality is the same as offered at WESTEND.

GOOD BUT NOT CLASSY: I AM LEGEND

SATURDAY, December 15
E-square is a happy contrast to INOX. This Still, we had to wait outside the screening hall and are allowed inside just before the screen flickers with the opening credits.
