Beneath the Banyan Tree (2021)
Oscar worthy performance
I am still stunned by how good this film is. I was expecting it to be good but it wasn't. It was great. Plus, the character of the grandmother, I am not exaggerating when I say I see this as an Oscar worthy performance. All the experiences of her life resonating behind everything she says and does. The film has such subtle depth to it. The themes grappled with are things all people from all over the world grapple with in the borders of our heart. The filmmaker deftly uses all the tools available: dialogue, silence, laughs, tears, joys, frustrations torment, love, music. Beautifully paced, beautifully shot.. I know you will finish this film loving life and loving film-making. I know i did.
McDick (2017)
McDick is legendary
Chris McDonnell's performance as Detective McDick is hilarious. The whole cast was funny and talented. Production quality is off the charts.
