On the Waterfront-1954 brando movie.
A done to death story elevated by the setting,script and execution by Elia kazan.
Brando was good but was more impressed by the supporting cast esp the one who played the priest.
Somehow went on imagining Kamal in Brando's role and how he would have electrified the screen with his presence and how he would have played the role.
Next:"Street Car named desire" by the same Brando/Kazan team.
Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

நானும் அழுது விட்டேன்.
Those who have pets can relate to this movie even more. Touching indeed.

Yes.. A heartwarming movie which will leave you speechless for the last 30 minutes.

INVICTUS..
Awesome.. Freeman as Mandela and Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar are stunning. Definitely a movie to watch! Has the film been released in India?

No no. I think Freeman plays himself over and over again. I was seeing Freeman in every frame and not Mandela. I know this is pretty lame to bring up, but can't help..

You didn't like Freeman's portrayal of Mandela eh?

It's not question of not liking. But it's just that Freeman's interpretation seems uniform, regardless of the kind of roles. Maybe he was always destined to play Mandela, but the kind of pristine, honorable demeanor, the "gravitas" or what have you, is amply evident in his earlier roles & his own personality, that eventually one finds nothing different in Mandela role. He kind of mimes the accent to differ a bit. But even that didn't help. In my case..
