Ali




Film:Ali: fear eats the soul

directer: Fassbinder



In the retro session of Fassbinder, I saw a movie named Ali: fear eats the soul.
The film is thematically differing from other movies. It is a tale of
interracial couple the sixtyish Emmy and the Moroccan, Ali who is twenty years
junior of her. There relationship was not accepted by others. Neighbors,
daughter and friends are frowned towards them. Naturally it hurts Emmy a lot.
Movie reveals the inner feelings of Emmi and her struggles in the society. They
wants to live together but others did not allow them to do so. They always
irritating them too with there all kinds of laughings



young and damned



Film: The Young and Damned
directer: louis Bunuel
Louis Bunuel, one of the famous directors in the world. I got a chance to watch
one of his classic movies named the young And Damned. I became a big fan of his
movies. It is released in 1952. And it is also a black white movie. The story
concerns a gang of juvenile mischief friends. one of the more lasting images of
the film is the clash of cultures shot of a glistening new skyscraper rising
above the untidy slums of Mexico city. The movie also traces the evil character
of every men. It is clearly explained in the movie.


fitzcaraldo


film:FITSCARRALDO
country: Germany
director: Werner Herzog


It is my great opportunity to watch world famous German director Werner Herzog's
movie titled Fitzcarraldo. I was overwhelmed with the movie. In my opinion
Herzog is amazing and talented director in the world. The film is based on the
rubber-baron who tries to bring opera house in to the dense jungle of South
America. The film is a clear picture of the struggles that will suffer during
achieving goal. It was a great job that Herzog did. He pulled the big boat over
the mountain. On the way they suffer a lot of problems and struggles. All the
problems are survived by him.

Bal


Film: Bal
Director:Semih Keplanogla
Country: Turkey


The film is all about little Yusuf who is born and brought up In an remote mountain region. His father Yakob was an honey gatherer. Yusuf always wish to follow his father in to the forest. He likes the scene of honey gathering. In holidays father allow Yusuf to follow. Being a small child, he helps his father a lot .
He is very studious and pleasant in class room. But his school life was not very pleasant with his stumble. The most touching scene in the movie was the rewarded scene of Yusuf. Being a stumble and stammer, he was awarded and esteemed by the teacher. It creates a great sense of children’s nature. The happy family life went wrong when Yakob left for another forest and did not return. Yusuf and his mother zehra were depressed and the little Yusuf decides to go in search of his father lonely.
I like the movie very much. Because of the storyline and its narrative style. The all story happens in a forest. And the location was almost fits for the story.

Iranian films are mostly agreed all over the world. All the Iranian directors esteemed all over the world. Lack of vulgarity and the political approach in the themes are the main noticeable contents in Iranian movies.
Mohsin Abdulwahab’s feature film titled ‘Please don’t disturb’ set against present day in Tehran. Three stories are tied up well in the movie. A women who is totally fed- up with the misbehavior and ill treatment of her husband. And she wishes to be divorced. Divorce is the main problem in Tehran. Another story is about a mullah, learns the life struggle of urban life. He is very pious and strictly religious person. Who loses his hand bag on his way and got back from a thief. And the third story is about suspicious elderly couple. a television mechanic is trapped in these couple’s house. From the story Wahab tried to reveal the inner feelings of elders. And also implement how the values convictions human sympathy can be shaken by an insignificant incident, and how easily these can be compromised
