On Film:
Directed by Fernando Meirelles
Great acting by Gael Garcia Bernal (Y tu mama tambien, Motorcycle Diaries) and Julian Moore (Hannibal Lector). Amazing cinematography and direction. Strong compositions in boarding and focus on relations between various shots. Really like the way all the effects and camera tricks were selectively chosen according to the requirement of the premise. The shot of the car taking the japanese to his home at start of the movie clearly states it. The continous change in reflection over the car window clearly created the mood of the disease.
The shot with the 2 oranges on the plate made me quite curious of what might be the importance of the shot. But later the revelation of the time elapsed within the orange being fresh and being rotten was a great thought put up for teh mmotivation of the story.
The shot with the engagement ring on Mark Ruffalo's finger portrays a well thought out charector creation. The relationships they are involved in and how important they are.
Also the dogs feeding on the human and teh other pet dog stil trying to find a loyal food was well important.
On Life:
This does take me back to the conversation I had the other night wih my friend about the way things work and how my mind aproaches regular thoughts of people. The fact that people are so patriotic about their natin and they are ready to go to war anytime when need be to stop a political power or defend their own so called people is quite rrelevantly miniscule when the world is on a crisis of its own. A crisis that is created by nature itself.
A blind wouldnt care if the only one who can see is of an enemy race.
