Thx neelu and ben. naseer is always direct. but i don't completely agree with his views on 70's.. there was some amazing work
@ shalini.. true for me too watching theater has been a better experience than film overall. maybe the fact that it caters…

yeah read it somewhere... about the video store
Kaminey was a good watch. lot of tarantino in it ...But somehow i liked vishal's Maqbool and Omakara better. Maybe because it is Shakespeare.
Death proof was my classic tarantino. Reminded me of an early speilberg movie "Duel" the tension that these guys create with machines is awesome. i sort of like the orchestrated violence in tarantino films. almost like a symphony

Paresh said… - Thanks Salil, I don't think the course helped me as such because I discontinued it after a few months. But, Elish was a great motivator, he helped me overcome many difficulties in writing. If you ever get in touch with him, just ask him if he remembers a student whose dad or brother carried him to the 2nd floor classroom of the St. Albert's college every Sunday some 13 years ago.
Yes, I'm a part time freelance journalist interested in films. These days I cover Malayalam films for rediff.
