Thats not a bad score. Ive prob seen 10% more stuff but have forgotten or neglected to review it. Of course Im not even counting stuff I have seen previously.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taking into consideration that the TV series are an hour each for every episode I guess Im doing pretty well. Also I have been shooting pretty much all the time since July. So I guess if by October I can hit anything between 80-100 that will be awesome but I dont think that's likely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;60-70 is a more sensible number given the shooting commitments I have lined up.

But a fine debut.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-6294941182725526371?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/6294941182725526371/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=6294941182725526371' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/6294941182725526371'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/6294941182725526371'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/07/cheeni-kum.html' title='Cheeni Kum'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-6592461534979684530</id><published>2007-07-29T20:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-29T20:54:20.214-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Aeon Flux</title><content type='html'>Piece of shit.

Man I so love Film Noir with their femme fatales and twists in the tail. What was really great that none of the films were from America. 2 were slick procedurals while one was a snorter of a Brit Gangsta flick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Tattoo (Germany) - My fav of the 3. Slick urban thriller with a fab climax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Gangster No 1 - If you thought that Paul Bettany could only do romantic/comedy roles u gotta watch this film. He's amazing as the psychotic and ruthless gangster.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Tell Me Something (Korea) - Good film but would have been much better if half and hour had been chopped off. Too many indulgent and introspective shots.

Got so much into work and watching films that they kinda slipped. Recently however I got kinda saturated with moving images and wanted to get back to my first love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here is the list of the Comics I have read since today morning&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Scene of the Crime (Ed Brubaker) Fucking amazing film noir mini series. Perfect companion  piece to Chinatown which Im sure is also a major influence. The denoument just leaves u gasping for breath. Brilliant. Would love to see a movie adaptation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Strain (Ikegama and Buronson) Fucking Hell. Fucking Bloody Hell. I would fucking kill to adapt this manga series into a film. Its so fucked up and insane that I love it. From the team that brought you "Sanctuary" here is another absolute masterpiece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Blacksad Vols 2 &amp;amp; 3 - Sweet Jesus. One of the best written and most beautifully comic books ever. Sadly only three titles have been released. Would give anything for this to become a regular series. How can u not fall in love with a film noirish world poplulated by anthramorphic animals??? Fucking Amazing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-2016149219453605476?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/2016149219453605476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=2016149219453605476' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/2016149219453605476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/2016149219453605476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/07/comic-book-update-1.html' title='Comic Book Update 1'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-1455985816324701191</id><published>2007-07-09T17:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-09T17:49:18.322-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Enduring Love</title><content type='html'>Intriguing and sensitive art house flick starring Daniel Craig and Samantha Morton, which is based on Ian McEwan's  acclaimed book of the same name.

Now I was going for what  might have turned out to be one of the most important interviews I have ever given but hearing the music stopped me dead in the tracks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sat down and listened to him play an extended 10 min version of the song. As I sat there breathless I was immediately transported to the fantastic African grasslands of my childhood.&lt;br /&gt;Some sort of childhood memory was let loose and I could literally feel the wind blow on my face, the smell of the elephant grass and the never ending horizon.

Had been lookin forward to is for almost a year. A very loose remake of one of my all time fav films , the mesmerizing 1987 Sami language "Pathfinder", the film is a mixed bag of delights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has numerous flaws starting with piss poor acting, atrocious dialog and lack of sufficient characterisation for any character.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However since this review is mainly about the visual aspects of the film and not the inherent content, I will say this. PATHFINDER IS A FUCKING AWESOME FILM. It's been amazingly shot by one of my heroes Daniel Pearl. Pearl is the resident God / Genius of music video and commercial DP's. He eschewed features to make a mark on the short form and what a fucking mark it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the years he has shot most of my all time fav music videos including "November Rain" , "I Love You" and "Wrapped around your finger". He's done features intermittently but Im crazy bout his music video work and last year he won an honorary Golden Frog at Cameraimage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This film has some spellbinding action sequences and jaw dropping cinematography throughout in Pearl's trademark pictorial style which is majorly influenced by the legendary "Blade Runner". Shot in a jungle with what seems to be available light most of the time, the film is a visual masterpiece. Lots of people didnt like the desaturated bleach bypass look but I think it's perfect. It gives the savage violence an almost poetic and balletic feel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If only they had cut out the awful expositional dialog and made the entire film silent it would have an been an cult classic like "Quest for Fire".  The visuals are powerful enough to tell the story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch it if only for the Lighting if nothing else. Danny u rock mate !!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-3759009571133391491?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/3759009571133391491/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=3759009571133391491' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/3759009571133391491'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/3759009571133391491'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/07/pathfinder.html' title='Pathfinder'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-8715674173648075710</id><published>2007-07-05T00:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-05T00:27:27.728-07:00</updated><title type='text'>4th of July Fireworks</title><content type='html'>Saw the 4th of July Fireworks on the East River.

Though I was busy shooting I did find time to read and watch some truly virtuoso pieces of art.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In chronological order&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Whiteout and Whiteout: Melt - Greg Rucka's brilliant graphic novel series about murder in the South Pole. Visually unique in the sense that its so awesome to construct a noir-ish story in black and white when the setting is Antartica. Fabulously cinematic and Im not surprised that the film version is out next year starring the yummy Kate Beckinsale. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) More - Gorgeous and profound stop motion short film with an extremely powerful yet personal message. It's amazing that despite being totally bereft of dialogs how the visuals and claymation characters were able to portray such vivid emotions and plot. Standing ovation for Mark Osborne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Signal to Noise - Creative Superstar Comic book team of Neil Gaiman and Dave Mckean reunite to create this stunning tour de force. Ostensibly bout a filmmaking facing his mortality, the book goes much deeper. Gaiman is brilliant is usual but the real star here is Mckean with his sublime mixed media palette of visual storytelling. Maya Deren would approve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) Man on the Train - Perfect film. Roger Ebert in his film said that he cant find any flaws in this film and I totally concur. Gorgeously shot and beautifully acted, this film is the sort you dont find in abundance these days ie a an intimate character study about male friendship akin to "Sideways". Perfect Cinema........&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-4632528906412096479?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/4632528906412096479/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=4632528906412096479' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/4632528906412096479'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/4632528906412096479'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/07/weekend-update.html' title='Weekend Update'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-170984134207020261</id><published>2007-06-29T14:29:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-29T14:31:37.872-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Place Promised in Our Early Days</title><content type='html'>Sob sob.

Welcome to the first film on this blog which I don't reccomend you watch. It's called Zhest and its a weird Russian film which was suggested to me by an online buddy whose taste in eclectic and off beat films I greatly admire and respect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly despite the glowing reccomendation of mon ami , this film is just weird. Part horror / Part thriller the film is all weird. A story of a feistly female journalist and her journey into hell on the worst day of her life. Populated by characters who make the hillbillies in "Deliverance" look warm and cuddly, the film is severely hamstrung by the abysmally bad acting and the incomprehensible storyline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The film does have its good points though. It's been amazingly well shot in an pleasing pictorialistic manner and also boasts some stellar prouction design. Add to that one of the most exhilirating car chase scenes I have seen. Too bad all these elements weren't used in a better film rather than this one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you really wanna see contemporary big budget  russian cinema or are simply enthralled by slick filmmaking then u could have a dekko. Otherwise just watch "Nightwatch"instead.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-5546826564808933391?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/5546826564808933391/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=5546826564808933391' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/5546826564808933391'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/5546826564808933391'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/06/zhest.html' title='Zhest'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-8827431201050687982</id><published>2007-06-24T17:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-24T17:25:50.017-07:00</updated><title type='text'>PS - Sorry</title><content type='html'>Sorry for the stupid spelling mistakes.

Great film, performances, cinematography and music.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really dont think its ethical to reveal much about a film which has't been released yet esp an arthouse independent film.

Just finished watching one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful romantic films I have ever seen. And what's really astonishing that it's a 25 min OVA anime film.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh my god I was crying like a baby at the end of the film and my eyes are still wet as I write this. To think that Makoto made the entire film all by himself on his Mac with his wife helping him. It just makes me filled with awe. I swear at times I was wondering to myself whether Kieslowski himself didn't make this film.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im not going to spoil the plot for anyone but its a really simple one. I really love the gender reversals where the girl is the warrior fighting and it's the boy who stayed back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really can't praise the film enough. Hauntingly poetic visuals and supercharged emotions bound in this masterpiece. Can't wait to see the rest of Makoto's films. The last scene in space reminds me so much of one of all my time fav climaxes ie "The Big Blue".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh man those images of the messages travelling through space gave me goosepimples. As one reviewer said and I wholeheartedly agree "Shinkai could direct traffic and I'd pay to watch".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact that I can be so affected is perhaps an indication that despite all my hard bitten ways. I am a old fashioned romantic after all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fav Moment - The last scene in space..........

It was about one of my fav photographers ie Annie Liebovitz aka the high priestess of Vanity Fair. Though the docu was quite dated circa 1994 it still had enough tidbits and insight to keep me engrossed during its short 50 min span.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Annie discussed her childhood, influences, techniques and her problem with drugs in a quite candid fashion which is very refreshing. What was an absolute bonus was a totally unexpected cameo by the now deceased legendary and reclusive Hunter S.Thompson of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" fame. Add to that bytes from Mick Jagger and the neo-hippie in me was delirious with excitement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My problem with the docu was that it was too short, too dated and didnt really illuminate much on her artistic and aesthetic philosophy that much. But maybe Im asking for too much. Still waiting for the definitive film on the life and times of Annie Liebovitz.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fav Moment- Hunter S. Thompson admitting that his brain is fried from having too many drugs in the 70's and can't remember much of his association with Annie.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6716894413936125848-5932555232164330107?l=visualod.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/feeds/5932555232164330107/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6716894413936125848&amp;postID=5932555232164330107' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/5932555232164330107'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6716894413936125848/posts/default/5932555232164330107'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://visualod.blogspot.com/2007/06/photographer-anne-liebovitz.html' title='Photographer - Anne Liebovitz'/><author><name>Mithun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05459018844937585504</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6716894413936125848.post-7103085215062153153</id><published>2007-06-11T22:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-11T22:33:19.422-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ghost in the Shell : Solid State Society</title><content type='html'>Was planning to watch "Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner" but caught Solid State while flipping through TV while looking for South Park.

Used to watch Stand Alone Complesx back in Bombay on Animax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boy does this film fucking rock or what. Visually stunning as ever and with enough philosiphical underpinnings to delight any cyberpunk fan, this film is a must see. Add to that the return of the Major to Section 9 and the pulsating electronic / hip hop soundtrack, I was a happily mesmerized otaku for the entire running time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Cinematography was gorgeous as is normally the case but the shot selection was truly inspired esp during the action sequences.
