எனக்குத் தெரிந்து ஒரு படைப்பு பலதரப் பட்டவர்களால் (எழுத்தாளர்கள், விமர்சகர்கள்) ஒரே இடத்தில் உரையாடப்பட்டது நந்தலாலாவிற்கு மட்டும்தான்.

Zero Dark Thirty

While the film was touted to be the OBL assassination episode, it actually is about the search for the man. It claims that without Maya's (Chastain) intelligence and determination, OBL would've never been found.

Other Oscar contenders have to be extremely good to prevent ZDT from bagging the golden statuette.

DJANGO (D silent) Unchained
Written and Directed by Quentin Tarantino

Starring
Jamie Foxx
Christoph Waltz
Leonardo DiCaprio
Samuel L. Jackson
Some black Salves &Their filthy masters, Outlaws and horses

Running time 2h45 mins

America during slave trade - outlaws & bounty hunters - lawless country side - plantation Zamindhars are the main points on which the film is constructed on. A bounty hunter Dr. Schultz (Christoph Waltz) escapes a slave Django (Jamie Foxx) to track down 3 brothers who are in Wanted Dead or Alive Category. Along with Django he hunts them, but in the course of time Schultz forms a friendly affection towards Django. Django is a sad man who lost his wife, but Schultz assures him that if he had not seen her dead, then she would be caught in the salve trade. Schultz proposes him to help him hunt outlaws and in return he will help him find his wife. At a stage, they reach Mississippi which is famous for "plantation" and they get a clue where Django's wife might be - With an arogant Zamindhar Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio). They hatch a plan to trick him and get Django's wife back. Upon their arrival they are welcomed by a curious eyed Stephen (Samuel L. Jackson). Whether they find Django's wife Dead or Alive forms the rest of the story.

I liked the way the film progresses - Django and Schutlz & outlaws - Calvin Candie Entry - menancing Stephan - Escape - Revenge - Climax. Its like reading a book or going thru a graphic novel. A tick to Naration.

Story - agony of a man who has lost his wife in a wrong place at a wrong time and his adventures in search of her. A tick to Execution

Performance - Christoph Waltz & Leonardo DiCaprio shine out. Jamie Fox as the nigger on a horse is bad a$$. Samuel L. Jackson, should I tell about him ? A tick to Casting

BGM : As usual Tarantino picks up the nostalgic themes and songs. Tick to RR [you hear Sadle noise, leather gloves noise etc which put you really au milleu the scene)

Run time : Trust me, even after 2h45 mins, you will want more. Tick to entertainement.

Not because its a Tarantino' movie I recomend it, but because I enjoyed this movie. MUST WATCH

PS. Note the Cameo of Franco Nero [remember the real Django ...] & the funny Tarantino's end.

-EDIT-
Warning : For those who have not seen or liked exploitation movie, this movie has got some violent (less gore scenes)
