a sense of watching an extraordinary film...its the reality...
so how did I end up in watching this very good movie...
it was another bad CTW...as usual...
jus hung out @ velachery...checked out satyam n Inox for Wall-E...nope no luck this week even...no tickets...
k what to day...we then decided to go to OAT, IIT Madras...somebody told dasavatharam is to be filmed..
it was hoax..
okay we saw the posters..it was written ' A Letter to IWO JIMA'..
hard to pronounce it..then i read 2 more times...and GK rightly said ...it cud be a war film....
ok decided to go inside...
The film started off in the battle field in Japan...with full darknes..throught out the film...with
english subtitles...yes its a Japanese film..
The story is about the bombardment of the Americans on the Japanese island...
where the young men know they are in the losing end..and fighting for their pride and the
emperor...lot of suicides...deaths..the true picture of war and despair ..perfectly blend..
I wonder how Clint Eastwood, the American Director...was able to go to the other side...i.e., the
Japanese couterpart's view ....of the war...
I am afraid ...we are not even able to make a film with the people of the nearest border within our country..things to ponder..in future...:)
so whats the end,every body die except the old secret which Saigo whispered to his baby in mother's womb before he enters the battle field to serve his land and the numerous letters from IWO JIMO waiting to be despatched...
a touching end though...
some of the scenes in the film depict the existance of true humane characters...which keeps the mankind intact in this world..and making better and better...
noteworthy are the scenes showing the Japanese treating an american soldier, the soldier who pretends to kill a dog...
