the adventures of quentin durward , known also as quentin durward , is a 1955 historical film released by mgm .

it was directed by richard thorpe and produced by pandro s. berman .

the screenplay was by robert ardrey , adapted by george froeschel from the novel quentin durward by sir walter scott .

it was the third in an unofficial trilogy made by the same director and producer and starring robert taylor .

the first two were ivanhoe ( 1952 ) and knights of the round table ( 1953 ) .

all three were made at mgm 's british studios at elstree , near london .

the film had the distinction of a soundtrack composed by studio music mainstay bronislau kaper rather than miklos rozsa , who was busy on other projects at the time the film was ready for scoring .

it was the first big-budget film for the british actress kay kendall , and it featured a large contingent of distinguished british players , including robert morley .

quentin durward by walter scott 6 out of 10 this not the best work i had in my hands . i venture to say far from it . the king of france has a conflict with the duke of burgundy . there is also a damsel in distress and caught in the plot the young hero - quentin durward . i did not enjoy this so much , even if there are some adventures… well , sort of . the duke of burgundy is upset , because a girl from his court has escaped and found refuge with the king of france . we meet his majesty early on , but in disguise .

disappointing having long ago read and enjoyed scott ' s ivanhoe , i looked forward to a tale of rousing adventure with quentin durward . unfortunately , i found this to be a ponderous read , rife with antiquated and sometimes incomprehensible terminology as well as a great excess of verbosity . oddly , most of the story was less about the adventures of the title character than about the machinations of the wily and unscrupulous monarch louis xi , and i found this emphasis to be unenjoyable .
this was the last of lang ' s adventures into the realm of fairy - land , and is itself isolated from the earlier period when he was exploring that dim region in so many directions .

bronislau kaper ' s score for quentin durward is a delightful swashbuckling effort in the best tradition of erich wolfgang korngold ' s ' 30s and ' 40s efforts and the cinemascope - era scores by waxman , rozsa and steiner . the themes range from a lighthearted scottish jig to a yearning love theme , and melancholy strains of unrequited affection—with solidly symphonic action music for the derring - do . the score has long been desired by fans of the genre .
i have to admit i was a little surprised by how engaging , exciting , and funny this historical novel by sir walter scott was . this novel , written in 1823 , tells the story of quentin durward , a wandering scottish nobleman who goes to france to make his fortune and ends up serving in the scottish guard of the french king , louis xi . quentin is as noble and true and chivalrous as louis is sneaky , cruel , and out for number one , but together they make a pretty good team and a very satisfying story . als

stolen from the treasure chest of the wizard of the north
. stories include episodes from waverley , guy mannering , rob roy , the antiquary , ivanhoe , the fortunes of nigel , quentin durward & the pirate . “ in this simple recounting of adventures there lurks a really high art , and not a little humor . mr . crockett is aiming to bring home to his critical small audience the liveliness , the excitement , the breathless adventuresomeness , of these great novels . he is luring his hearers on to read for them - selves . he tells them enough about the people and the events to make them hurry to the books to fill out details . ” — churchman .
walter scott’s novel of 1823 follows a scottish nobleman to 15th century france where he seeks his fortune as a mercenary working for the devious king louis xi . quentin durward believes in chivalry in an age when chivalry is going out of fashion , but sticks to his principles throughout in spite of many obstacles . this is but one example of the various impressively realised characterisations in the novel , against a fast moving action packed story with occasional moments of gutsy violence . the bac
the film is part of a thematic series with 1952 ' s ivanhoe and 1955 ' s quentin durward ( which were also produced by mgm and directed by richard thorpe , and also starred robert taylor ) , with a similar chivalric spirit and tone and similarly lavish production values . all three were filmed at mgm ' s british studios at elstree , near london .
thus , the scott cinema canon , which had been fairly eclectic in the early years of film , soon narrowed to just three principal source works : rob roy , ivanhoe , and quentin durward . the small number of recent scott films had continued this trend : most were made in post - soviet russia , and one , rob roy ( usa , 1995 ) , is only tangentially based on the original novel . [ 13 ] significantly , too , only rob roy had been a favourite with theatre - goers before the advent of cinema : there were some 970 stage adaptations of the novel produced in the century between 1817 and 1917 , nearly four times as many as ivanhoe and quentin durward combined . [ 14 ] so why did one great scotch romance and a couple of minor medieval romances assume such prominence in the cinema ? the following section of this essay will consider some of the surviving film versions of these three novels , with particular attention to cinematic representations of scotland .
n 1465 , the impecunious scottish knight quentin durward travels to france to determine whether the countess isabelle of marcroy will make a suitable bride for his aged uncle . the marriage has been arranged by the duke of burgundy to from a lasting alliance with scotland . aware that her intended husband is an old man , isabelle takes flight and puts herself under the protection of the king of france , louis xi . quentin pursues her and manages to inveigle his way into the king ' s confidence . fearing that a rift with burgundy will lead to an all - out war that france can ill afford , the king conceives a fiendish plan that will deliver isabelle into the hands of the notorious brigand count william de la marck . . .
scott’s reinvention of rob roy as a highland robin hood conveniently supplied disney with a link between the jacobite setting of the novel and the more congenial medieval scott of ivanhoe , the talisman , and quentin durward . [ 45 ] conscious of the catastrophe of alexander korda’s bonnie prince charlie in 1948 , hollywood studios were anxious to find ways of exploiting the magnificent scottish scenery and the action , colour , and revelry of scots “tartanry” without having to deal with the dramatically unpromising facts of the failed rebellions of 1715 and 1745 and the integration of scotland into the united kingdom . the highland rogue therefore belongs more compellingly with other chivalric romances coming out of the british - american co - productions of the period , such as another jacobite makeover of 1953 , warners’ film of robert louis stevenson’s the master of ballantrae , in which the presence of errol flynn inevitably calls up robin hood .

i read this long ago and liked it very much . the story is about a young archer , quentin durward , who leaves his native scotland to serve in the scottish guard of louis xi of france . as security detail he accompanies the beautiful isabelle de croye of burgundy on a journey to flanders . the lady is promised in marriage to quite a few men within the story : first to an odious nobleman in the burgundy court , then to a bandit , next to the duke of orleans . when she refuses the duke , he promises her to

when i first read this novel in high school , i really liked it and always thought it was an excellent historical adventure novel ( there is probably a better term for this type of literature ) . after reading another novel about mercenaries recently , i decided to re - read quentin durward just to remind myself of how novels about mercenaries really should be written . well , this experience was pretty interesting . the story is about the french king louis xi as much as it is about the scottish archer , quentin durward who serves the french king . in fact , there is probably more text dedicated to the king and his affairs . this side of the story really slows the flow of the book although shows in detail what kind of monarch and politic louis xi really was - you will be repulsed by his actions and you will admire him a little . it sounds crazy but think about it - how can you admire a story about adventures of a person who kills for money ( mercenary ) ? if you do , why not admire the king who is smart and ruthless at the same time ( or is it the same thing ? ) ? the adventures feel ancient in character and a bit naive ( think knights fighting for their dames ) but it ' s still enjoyable if you manage to sleep through the boring parts ( maybe it ' s just me but this is my review so . . . ) . overall , i found that i only got interested in the story after i ' ve gone though 2 / 3 of the book . and all i could say in the end was ,
well , good for him . what do i read next ?
i read this long ago and liked it very much . the story is about a young archer , quentin durward , who leaves his native scotland to serve in the scottish guard of louis xi of france . as security detail he accompanies the beautiful isabelle de croye of burgundy on a journey to flanders . the lady is promised in marriage to quite a few men within the story : first to an odious nobleman in the burgundy court , then to a bandit , next to the duke of orleans . when she refuses the duke , he promises her to whoever will kill the bandit she was once to marry . quentin , true romance hero that he is , performs this task admirably and thereby gains isabell ' s love and hand in marriage . this was quite long . an enjoyable cloak and dagger novel with lots of historical detail about 15th - century france and scotland .
my second favorite of scott ' s work - - - next to ivanhoe . a good action / adventure story set against the interesting backdrop of 1400s france . the conflict between king louis and charles of burgundy was fun for me to read about , but anyone can enjoy characters like lady hamelina and the naive , honest hero , quentin durward himself . the book has more humor than you ' d expect , and that ' s a plus . i recommend this to anyone interested in trying out scott ' s other novels - - besides ivanhoe .

away from the archers , challis became a mainstay of the rank organisation during the 1950s , lending his talents to the smash hit genevieve , and worked with leading british directors such as sidney gilliat , lewis gilbert , charles crichton and roy ward baker . challis ' hollywood credits from this period include the lively medieval swashbuckler quentin durward , notable for its vibrant widescreen imagery . hollywood - backed productions seldom called for the kind of visual imagination evident in the archers films . a shot in the dark , for example , found challis largely constricted by blake edwards ' penchant for subdued colour and long , static takes . an elaborate crane shot in the opening sequence , charting multiple amorous liaisons in a french villa , shows what could have been .

the bulk of the book is about ulysses , the trojan war seen from his part in it as well as the matter of the odyssey . lang uses the roman name throughout , saying firmly
the name was changed into ulysses and we shall call him ulysses
, while leaving zeus , aphrodite and the other gods in their greek forms . the gods themselves are played down , perhaps in imitation of bowdler . it may not be necessary to revive the question of ulysses ' paternity , though writers later than homer thought he was the son of sisyphus , not laertes . but to refer to helen as the daughter of tyndarus ( sic ) is either to be podsnappishly zealous about the young readers ' innocence or stolidly to ignore one of zeus ' s more notorious extramarital adventures . it also leaves lang with an anomalous nickname of helen ' s to explain , so he says that she was called

walter scott’s novel of 1823 follows a scottish nobleman to 15th century france where he seeks his fortune as a mercenary working for the devious king louis xi . quentin durward believes in chivalry in an age when chivalry is going out of fashion , but sticks to his principles throughout in spite of many obstacles . this is but one example of the various impressively realised characterisations in the novel , against a fast moving action packed story with occasional moments of gutsy violence . the background details and many of the characters have some historical basis , although various notes point out how some events have been moved into different time periods for the convenience of the story , a not unusual device in historical novels . arguably , the novel has its faults – some readers will find that the numerous footnotes slow down the plot , but i actually found them informative . the gipsy characters , also referred to as bohemians , seem to be the typecast two dimensional untrustworthy foreigners of pulp fiction . i enjoyed it immensely , a rare example of a fast - paced 19th century novel . it helps if you try to forget the appalling 1950s movie version .

as ivanhoe amply shows , scott’s medieval romances came into their own in the 1950s because they were made to speak strongly to contemporary concerns . the post - war and cold war years encouraged the consolidation of the cultures of the west , and the plots of ivanhoe and quentin durward both “project … incipient nation states [ or nato states ? ] , not as culturally unitary but as divided against themselves . ” [ 47 ] these plots can be resolved only by symbolic marriages . both stories offer domestic solutions to world - historical problems , therefore , and must have appealed to producers during the baby - boom of the 1950s when the american dream , projected as suburban domesticity and consumer culture , was being sold abroad as the most powerful weapon against communist russia . as critics have shown , too , ivanhoe in particular showed how the camouflage of costume might allow a more critical examination of cold war america . for example , elizabeth taylor’s lead role as rebecca , the able , energetic jewess who falls in love with ivanhoe but must relinquish him in the end to the insipid anglo - saxon rowena , raises issues about the role of women , the prevalence of anti - semitism , and the spectre of mccarthyism in the 1950s .

at the dawn of the victorian period came the folktales of grimm to complicate the issue ; and so strong was their influence that german very soon became the language of fairyland—of märchenland , we would fain say , borrowing the title from f . anstey ' s delicious fantasy of the fairy world , in brief authority .
in 1888 lang turned aside from the high road of the literary fairy story to seek his inspiration for the gold of fairnilee among the dark shadows of the genuine old fairy beliefs . but a year later he returned to the fairy court tradition , and wrote prince prigio , the first of his chronicles of pantouflia .
a mist of memory broods and floats , the border waters flow ; the air is full of ballad notes borne out of long ago .
robert taylor is splendidly dashing as penniless scottish nobleman quentin durward in this jolly swashbuckler set in 15th century france and based on a novel by sir walter scott . in the busy , well - constructed plot , taylor finds himself embroiled in a struggle for power between ruthless brothers king louis xi ( robert morley ) and the duke of burgundy ( alec clunes ) . it ' s made with a fast pace , a gracious , spirited leading lady in kay kendall , as the beautiful princess isabelle of marcroy , eye - popping technicolor photography , splendid french location filming and an exciting climactic confrontation in a blazing bell tower . all this , plus george cole as a gypsy , wilfrid hyde white and ernest thesiger .
great action , good humor and a picturesque setting as scott always delivers . but for this one , also a nice introduction to a period of french history less well known to me - the mid 15th century while the king of france was still struggling with burgundy to weld together the modern french state . many memorable characters from quentin who is like a younger , scottish d ' artagnan , the always composed , perfectly cynical louis xi and the well - meaning but utterly rash charles of burgundy , down to the comic relief of louis ' mismatched pair of over - worked executioners .
clodd and most of the folk - lore society , including the rest of the great team , stood firm in asserting

because the vanishing people is a collection of essays on different aspects of fairy lore , there is some inevitable duplication of illustrative material . all of it , however , is of the highest quality , and grips the imagination in even the shortest extracts . few will easily forget the fairy rade which passed by bessie dunlop in the sixteenth century

lang ' s narrative tone in his next tales , prince prigio and prince ricardo of pantouflia ( 1893 ) , in contrast to that of the gold of fairnilee , is lightly satirical and has been described as a burlesque of the traditional fairy tale . prince prigio and prince ricardo were both strongly influenced by william makepeace thackeray ' s similarly burlesque the rose and the ring . in these original tales , lang follows the adventures of the clever , but obnoxious prince prigio and his dim - witted son , prince ricardo . in tales of a fairy court ( 1907 ) , lang chronicles further episodes in the life of prince prigio . in one of the stories , prince prigio travels in time , first into the future of the twentieth century , then back in time to the court of king james vi of scotland . lang ' s tales of troy and greece ( 1907 ) comprises a retelling of homer ' s the iliad and the odyssey as a boy ' s adventure story for children . drawing on his own translations of homer ' s works and his accomplishments as a homeric scholar , lang ' s tales of troy and greece is highly regarded as one of his strongest volumes of stories for children .
[ 43 ] the highland rogue was also , of course , one of scott’s sources .
in deserting all the literary traditions of fairyland and going for his inspiration to the border ballads and to the ancient folk beliefs and superstitions , lang was not acting unreasonably or from any spirit of forced innovation : for the fairies of the north are indeed the true fairies , and they were the products of the popular and literary creed of many centuries .
[ in the following review , the critic comments on the appeal of lang ' s original fairy tales to modern readers , particularly the stories recounted in the gold of fairnilee and the princess nobody . ]
the year of lang ' s birth , 1844 , saw perhaps the earliest fusion of grimm and the french fairy court , in a forgotten tale , the hope of the katzekopfs by the reverend francis edward paget , where the new tradition is exemplified very clearly .
the movie debut of albert finney , at work in the raleigh . . .
johnny nut and the golden goose ( from the french of charles deulin ) .
lang frankly admitted
the process of evolution . . . is the mainspring of our system .
18 the scholarly introduction to this new translation—the first scholarly version of the grimm ' s household tales —was most fortuitous .
the vedas do not represent the ordinary conversation of men , in which the process of naming and forgetting names is said to have existed .
he learned the tales of death divine and birth , strange loves of hawk and serpent , sky and earth , the marriage and the slaying of the sun ; the shrines of ghosts and beasts he wandered through , and mocked not of their godhead , for he knew behind all creeds the spirit that is one .
[ 3 ] they are old mortality , the heart of midlothian , rob roy , the bride of lammermoor , a legend of montrose , and redgauntlet . of the two remaining scotch romances , the antiquary was set in scott’s own time , and guy mannering in the days of his youth .
[ 8 ] the bride of lammermoor ( j . stuart blackton , usa , 1909 ) , the bride of lammermoor ( it , 1910 ) kenilworth ( usa , 1909 ) , lochinvar ( based on marmion , j . searle dawley , usa , 1909 ) , quentin durward ( albert capellani , fr , 1911 ) , rob roy ( arthur vivian , uk , 1911 ) , the lady of the lake ( j . stuart blackton , usa , 1912 ) , guy mannering ( us , 1913 ) , ivanhoe ( herbert brenon , uk , 1913 ) , ivanhoe ( leedham bantock , uk , 1913 ) , rebecca the jewess ( based on ivanhoe , uk , 1913 ) , rob roy ( o . a . c . lund , usa , 1913 ) , a woman”s triumph ( based on the heart of midlothian , j . searle dawley , usa , 1914 ) , the heart of midlothian ( frank wilson , uk , 1914 ) .
among more literary classes the popular fairy - lore in the middle ages became diluted and changed by the addition of classical and romantic elements . perhaps the best example of this is the middle english poem of
sir orfeo ,
which tells the story of orpheus and eurydice in a setting of british fairy belief , making persephone queen of that fairyland under the ground to which , in the ballad , the fairy queen leads thomas the rhymer .
this is the eternal difficulty of the philological method . how are you to suppose that forgetfulness of the meaning of words so frequently led civilised men to ideas essentially savage ? how are you to be certain that the story was originally told of the god or hero whose name you analyse by the aid of philology ? 11
i was reading quentin myself at this stage , albeit at home and in secret , firstly because the doctor had forbidden me reading yet again , and secondly because the book was too heavy to drag to school along with all my textbooks . and this coincidence , which then seemed to me to be mysteriously significant , made my heart pound even harder .
k - gr . 3 —this russian folktale [ the flying ship ] recounts the offbeat adventures of a kindhearted simpleton and his attempts to win the hand of a beautiful princess . he soars in a magical flying ship , gathering a crew of eccentric characters along the way . all of them eventually use their unique and often comical talents to help their peculiar , yet determined , captain claim his royal bride . the text is taken from andrew lang ' s the yellow fairy book ( dover , 1966 ) , and includes a few minor spelling changes . unfortunately , the watercolor - and - pencil illustrations do not reflect the earthy humor of the tale . many of the page - and - a - half spreads are static , and the rosy - cheeked , round - eyed men , women , and children resemble cartoon figures . overall , the soft colors and romanticized landscapes create a saccharine quality that is incompatible with the spirit of the story . those in need of
the flying ship
should turn to the yellow fairy book .
the process of diffusion remains uncertain . much may be due to the identity everywhere of early fancy : something to transmission .
euterpe : being the second book of the famous history of herodotus , tr . barnaby rich ( editor ) . 1888 .
the second grouping , prince ricardo of pantouflia : being the adventures of prince prigio ' s son , offers a different twist . even in pantouflia , parents occasionally err in making life too easy for their offspring . so immersed is ricardo in using magical gifts to solve dilemmas that he neglects skill development and personal talents . rather than tending to his humdrum duties and his geography and mathematics studies . ricardo dashes and darts from one exciting exploit to another until his father decides to teach him a lesson .

between 1909 and 1914 , fourteen scott films were made in four different countries ( the uk , usa , france , and italy ) from seven novels , one story , and a poem : still barely one - third of the number of films made from dickens’s writing in the same period . ivanhoe , which almost alone made scott’s name known to later generations of moviegoers , was already the favourite , attracting three film versions . interestingly , the heart of midlothian was made twice in 1914 ( it was never filmed again : see below ) , as were two other novels that would prove appealing to subsequent filmmakers : the bride of lammermoor and rob roy . [ 8 ] by contrast , between 1915 and the end of the silent era in 1930 scott virtually disappeared from the cinema : only five more films were produced , from three novels ( rob roy , the talisman , and the fair maid of perth ) . [ 9 ] thereafter , to the best of my knowledge not a single scott film was made anywhere in the world between 1930 and the revival of interest in chivalric epic in hollywood during the cold war . this spurred a minor scott revival , but only in rob roy and the handful of medieval swashbucklers : ivanhoe , the talisman , and quentin durward . [ 10 ] scott fared rather better on radio and television . between 1940 and 1974 , the bbc made ten radio serials , [ 11 ] and between 1957 and 1998 , fifteen television serials ( of eleven novels ) appeared . [ 12 ]
by a strange chance mrs molesworth , one of the greatest writers of the
child - novel ,
was born in 1839 , the year of the publication of holiday house , the earliest real example of that type of story : following on this it is even stranger to find that in 1844 , the year when the hope of the katzekopfs , the first true
literary fairy - story
appeared , was born andrew lang , whose name is more intimately connected with fairies than that of any other englishman since shakespeare .
one of the greatest all time romantic swashbucklers . one of a trio of medieval films robert taylor did , owing little to history but great entertainment none the less .
the chronicles of pantouflia combine two books , the story of prince prigio ( 1889 ) and the adventures of his son , prince ricardo ( 1893 ) ; both antedate the blue fairy book of 1899 , the first in andrew lang ' s great spectrum of anthologies of children ' s stories . but they reveal already an imagination steeped in fairy literature , and adding to that tradition with considerable sophistication . the stories repeatedly take their bearings by literary cross - reference . some of these would be appreciated by children : the king of pantouflia is the grandson of cinderella and includes madame la belle au bois - dormant among his ancestors ; prince prigio is given the whole battery of fairy gifts—seven - league boots , flying carpets , wishing caps and so on . on the other hand prince ricardo is saved by a weapon - salve described by sir kenelm digby , and his tale has elements drawn from scott and ariosto as well as the gawain poet and others ; the tale of the yellow dwarf recounted here awaits its proper placement , anthologized in the blue fairy book six years later . pantouflia , we may assume , is not only a country but , as its name suggests , a state of slippered ease , bookish , witty and even cynical in its handling of the stuff of children ' s fiction .
finished ! i have officially exhausted all of the scott in my collection , ladies and gentlemen , and i’m free at last : ) i shouldn’t be so dramatic , but i liked this even less than “kenilworth” – i guess i’ll just be thankful that i didn’t go for this one first . i have no desire to write about this book , so this is going to be short . the story was tedious and i had nearly zero investment in the characters or their aspirations . i pictured quentin as justin bieber in armor ; he was a complete ninny . isabelle was incredibly boring , and her only discernable purpose was to be rescued and to melodramatically throw herself on the mercy of various and sundry noblemen . her bitter spinster aunt was admittedly quite funny , and crevecoeur was amusing as well for mercilessly making fun of quentin’s puppy love . but other than that , this was a snooze .
[ 6 ] in h . philip bolton , scott dramatized ( london : mansell , 1992 ) , the last dated stage adaptations of scott , excluding operas and school playscripts , are : marmion in 1903 , waverley in 1871 ( 54 ) , guy mannering in 1913 ( 139 ) , the antiquary in 1844 ( 146 ) , old mortality in 1874 ( 156 ) , the black dwarf in 1833 ( 161 ) , rob roy in 1990 ( 257 ) , heart of mid - lothian in 1949 ( 296 ) , bride of lammermoor in 1908 ( 332 ) , the legend of montrose in 1868 ( 340 ) , ivanhoe in 1914 ( 371 ) , the monastery in 1883 ( 374 ) , the abbot in 1886 ( 392 ) , kenilworth in 1905 ( 420 ) , the pirate in 1844 ( 425 ) , the fortunes of nigel in 1903 ( 435 ) , peveril of the peak in 1877 ( 440 ) , quentin durward in 1940 ( 451 ) , st . ronan”s well in 1893 ( 455 - 6 ) , redgauntlet in 1872 ( 461 ) , the betrothed in 1829 ( 462 ) , the talisman in 1938 ( 472 ) , woodstock in 1913 ( 476 ) , the fair maid of perth in 1967 ( 492 ) , and anne of geierstein in 1829 ( 493 ) .
the absence of names is not , of course , essential to the ordinary folk - tale ; but in the case of such a story as this , it is only by such a suppression that it can be regarded with any ease as a fairy - tale of the type best exemplified in the grimm collection , and not merely as a fragment of the grand legendary history of homeric greece .

1898 .
in general , lang moved from the known to the lesser known in his selection of tales—the tried and the true to the more experimental . in keeping with his concept of making manifest the universality of the human experience , he covered the world fairly well in each volume . although the blue fairy book ventured only as far afield as asia minor , the yellow fairy book five years later presented three american indian tales and one of the two chinese tales in the series , as well as tales from europe . the brown fairy book of 1904 balanced its american indian and african—both northern and southern—with scandinavian , french , and spanish tales . where five countries had been represented in the first book of the series , from the yellow fairy book of 1894 through the orange fairy book of 1906 the number of countries represented averaged ten .

the film which opens with a philosophical format , takes different forms as it progresses , ” he explains , noting that the audience was shocked when they watched ekangi , because of its treatment and categorised that in a ‘different’ film category . “similarly , apoorva is also a different film . people should come and watch it with preparation . i have broken the grammar ; there is less glamour , and best flavour . it is a film aimed at an audience belonging to every age group , ” adds the actor . another interesting thing about apporva is that most of this 138 - minute film happens in a lift . ravichandran who is known for erecting huge sets for his songs , created a lift set in his own house for shooting convenience . besides that , he shot the film in two malls and on nice road .

however , she forgets all of this when they are rescued eventually a few hours later . as rajashekar revels in his new - found love interest , apoorva introduces him to her boyfriend akshay . she tells akshay that rajashekar is her uncle . what a heartbroken rajashekhar does after this revelation forms the rest of the film .

wow . i will never look at this film , bertolucci or brando the same way again . this is beyond disgusting . i feel rage urltoken
for years after the film , and in part due to the scandal surrounding it , schneider struggled with drug addiction and depression before her death .
, leader of the new crop of sandalwood film makers , deserves applause for this impeccable way of story telling which is away from the main stream cinema .
the bright opening in the upper - octave gandhara and the subsequent traversal to the suddha dhaivata are striking . sasirekha . 06 : 0 . release . the film became successful at box office . when the film was released in bangalore . when we came out , he started crying . these are tears of joy .
the songs , and the background score mostly supported by gautam srivastava is terrible to ears at times , which again makes one remember ' hamsalekha , ' or if not hamsalekha , the crazy star definitely needs to hand over the job of composition to a well trained musicians who could connect to his ' heart ' of film making , and not just who simply knows and plays musical instruments . now that apoorva is released and that audience will seal its fate , the burden of expectation gets heavier on his next venture - manjina hani . well , watch apoorva to judge on whether it is a punishment or imprisonment !
as he was keen on acting , he joined the madras film institute , and during one of his stage performance , he met the director , k balachander , who offered him a role in his tamil film . until that time , he was not good at speaking tamil , but he quickly learned it and master the language .
a mall is attacked by terrorists , there is a power shutdown and apoorva , a 19 - year - old girl , and rajashekhar , a 61 - year - old man , are stuck in an elevator in the mall .
apoorva , under the guise of being a ‘different’ film , doesn’t manage to engage its audience . apart from the fact that the ‘love story’ itself is unconvincing , the barrage of sermons on life on black screen inserts / intertitles every two seconds are aggravating . repeated shots of the close - up of eyes , hair flying followed by more close - ups and hair flying don’t make things better , either .
balachander used the technique of introducing the lead actors and actresses in the film with a title card in the name of a raga , symbolising their characters in the film . for rajinikanth , the title sruthi bedam ( english : a variation in the pitch . ) was used to denote the twist in the tale with the appearance of his character .
after nearly a decade , ‘dreamer’ ( kanasugara ) of kannada cinema ravichandran is all set to entertain the audience with the much awaited apoorva hitting screens across the state on friday . the movie has been produced by his production house - eshwari productions .
for the initial two years of his acting career , he got recognised for his negative roles , until he got the lead role in the telugu film ‘chilakamma cheppindi’ ( 1977 ) .
in 1975 , rajinikanth debuted in k . balachander’s tamil classic apoorva raagangal . this was followed by a string of small and antagonistic roles in his upcoming movies . his breakthrough role in tamil cinema was bairavi , directed by m . bhaskar . it saw rajinikanth playing the lead role for the first time . slowly , he was recognised as a prominent film star and his signature style of flipping the cigarette was a hit with the masses .
to all the people that love this film - you ' re watching a 19yr old get raped by a 48yr old man . the director planned her attack . i feel sick . urltoken
new delhi , july 6 ( uni ) the makers of ' gold ' starring akshay kumar have released the very first song from the film titled ' naino ne baandhi ' on friday .
ramesh kalyanaraman , ed - marketing and operations , kalyan jewellers , said , “every woman desires a diamond necklace for her wedding , and apoorva fulfills the distinct needs of every woman by offering a compelling collection which is intricately crafted and completes the wedding trousseau . ”
in addition to acting in films , alia bhatt has launched her own line of clothing for women . she has sung six of her film songs and participates in stage shows and concert tours .
a special program on how the contestants are getting ready for the coming week ' s ugadi round . watch the tits and bits from ugadi episode . the show also features an exclusive interview with crazy star ravichandran , who will share his experience about making apoorva movie .
we soon find out that ranjani is bhairavi ' s daughter ( born to her out of wedlock ) . both relationships arrive at a dilemma with an unexpected twist when bhairavi ' s long - lost husband , pandiyan ( rajinikanth ) comes into picture . if you aim for it seriously , you succeed . of course when i introduced him in apoorva raagangal , it was only a small role , but people would remember him because he comes in the climax . balachander adapted the screenplay of 4 . carats . dasan , however , stated that apoorva raagangal was his script .
schneider told the daily mail in 2007 that no sexual intercourse took place on the film set – but said she was kept in the dark about aspects of the scene which had a profound effect on her .
rajan from balachander ' s film major chandrakanth ( 1 . march 1 . 97 . 5 ; the name means . since my mother tongue is tamil , we decided to speak in tamil to each other .
has she fallen in love because she is possibly on the brink of death ( read : terrorist attack ) , asks rajashekhar . apoorva’s ‘logic’ is that if she is going to die anyway , then why not fall in love , as if it is something that can be enacted at will .
we have no idea who rajashekar or apoorva is at this point and the screen is filled with random theories about life . ‘life is a sin - ema , i dare you to watch it’ floats on the screen . this is followed by ‘life is a fact’ and then the letter ‘f’disappears and ‘life is an act’ remains . unfortunately , this continues until the end of the film . ‘life is censored , unsensored’ , ‘life is a shameless journey and love is an aimless journey’ are among some of the other gems that adorn the screen .
sudeep and ravi shankar also appear in cameos in the film , but not prakash . it is only prakash ' s voice that makes up a crucial part of the story ,
the love you alia actor has said .
he describes how he and marlon brando conspired to shoot an assault by brando’s character in the 1972 film using a stick of butter as lubricant to rape his lover played by the late actress – a detail that had not been in the script .
varun dhawan started his career as a hero with the movie “student of the year” in 2012 . till now he acted in 7 movies out of which 2 are super hits and remaining are average at the box - office . there are no disasters in his film career . varun dhawan’s upcoming movies are dishoom directed by his brother rohit , and he is filming opposite alia bhatt for the romantic comedy badrinath ki dulhania . in addition , he has committed to feature in judwaa 2 , a sequel to the 1997 comedy film judwaa .
to conclude , u - turn is an amazing film . if you liked lucia , you’ll love this . if you like thriller movies , you’ll love it . if you watch the movie for the message it gives , you’ll give it a standing ovation like they did so in the theatre where i watched this movie . however , the real hero and possibly the villain too is not an actor in this film . it is a real entity , captured brilliantly by pawan . it is the double road flyover in bengaluru city : d
rajinikanth married latha rangachari , whom he met when she interviewed him for her college magazine . he earned the filmfare award for best tamil actor in 1984 for nallavanuku nallavan . he made an appearance in the american film bloodstone , playing the role of an indian taxi driver .
in 2005 , rajinikanth signed up for chandramukhi , which fared well at the box office and set the record for the longest - running tamil movie . rajinikanth earned rs 26 crore for his role in sivaji ( 2007 ) making him the second - highest - paid actor in india after jackie chan . rajinikanth partnered with director shankar for the sci - fi film enthiran ( 2010 ) , where he played the dual role of a scientist and a robot , chitti ; this went onto become the second - highest grossing indian film of its time .
with rajinikanth’s upcoming film kabali ’s teaser shattering all youtube records set by indian movies and garnering a critical reception from audiences , the movie , slated for release this summer , can expect a huge turnout and can hopefully satiate the audiences’ expectations of a blockbuster from the superstar again .
i am very pleased to say that lately kannada film industry has been giving very good movies and u - turn is one of those . lucia director pawan kumar has taken a very simple , yet socially very important concept , given it a gripping screenplay and directed very beautifully .
reason : on one side of the screen the phrases on love and life in english with discomforting fonts rarely stops flowing , and at the bottom is the sub - title in english . if that is not enough , the protagonists is half the time busy expressing his philosophy and the other portion is dedicated to the heroine shown with her hair flying , and close up shots of her eye . well , the man who was at least never criticised for selection of actress , has probably failed for the first time . the actress apoorva is not what we all have been seeing in ravichandran ' s film and the other disheartening fact is that the debutant can hardly act .
performances in the film are pretty decent , many of them appearing first time on the screen , still they manage to keep the audience engaged without an iota of boredom . the characters are well portrayed but the plot gets diluted when the real face behind the mystery comes into play .
film got negative reviews from critics . renuka vyavahare of the times of india gave the movie 2 out of 5 stars stating that ,
the crime drama fails to offer an insight to haseena ' s life
. [ 16 ] syed firdaus ashraf from urltoken gave the movie 2 . 0 / 5 stars stating that ,
shraddha kapoor tries hard to rescue the film . shraddha kapoor deglamorizes herself to get into the character and her sincerity as an actress reflects throughout the movie . it has all the ingredients . . . to make it a blockbuster . [ 17 ]
on the face of it you might easily say that there’s nothing new to kapoor & sons . isn’t it the usual , dysfunctional family drama we have seen in countless hollywood films ? but not for a minute does the film feel stale . batra gives a refreshing new voice to an old , tried and tested trope .
apoorva or apurva is the common english spelling of two related indian given names : the feminine अपूर्वा and the masculine अपूर्व . the masculine name is often spelled apurv or apoorv , as in many modern indo - aryan languages it is pronounced without the vowel at the end , for example in hindi : . in sanskrit and are respectively the masculine and feminine forms of the adjective meaning ' unprecedented ' , ' new ' , ' extraordinary ' .
and to ensure that the narration of the other story is as strong its counterpart inside , we needed a good voice , and who better to have onboard for that than sudeep ? his bass voice is well - suited to the film and he agreed to be a part of it without asking any questions about it .
in a kalyan jewellers store , the bachchans are busy trying to find jewellery for their grand daughter . jaya rules out a diamond set for the reception as she thinks a large one wouldn ' t be available at their budget . amidst the banter , amitabh finds a apoorva set and proudly shows off the bride - to - be wearing it . he reveals that it is priced within their budget , at a range of rs 5 to 10 lakh .
just imitate whatever balachander is doing . what is the relationship between him and me ) sums up the theme of the film . according to naman ramachandran , the character of pandiyan is not entirely negative . pandiyan does not appear as a villain ; in fact , he comes across as a saint . pandiyan commits no villainous act .
in 2002 , he did a day - long fast to protest the karnataka government’s decision not to release water from the river kaveri into tamil nadu . also in 2008 , he participated in a day - long fast with other tamil film personalities , demanding that the sri lankan government must end to civil war and give sri lankan tamils their rights .
speaking at the time , she said : “they only told me about it before we had to film the scene and i was so angry . i should have called my agent or had my lawyer come to the set because you can’t force someone to do something that isn’t in the script but at the time , i didn’t know that . ”
while impressing audiences with his witty humour and unique style , rajinikanth won many accolades along the way . during a period when most directors were ready to cast him as the hero of their film , rajinikanth abruptly chose to quit acting . this sent shockwaves through the entire industry . however , balachander and other close friends convinced him to return to cinema .
in 2000 , rajinikanth was awarded the padma bhushan by the government of india , in recognition of his achievements in cinema . rajinikanth’s first film to release in the new millennium was baba ( 2002 ) . he wrote the screenplay himself , but the movie failed to meet box office expectations and was a failure . rajinikanth repaid the losses faced by the distributors himself .
apoorva is supposed to be a love story between an older man and a younger woman , in this case 61 and 19 respectively ( the filmmaker even goes to the extent of calling it ‘a 1961 love story’ ) . the premise of this supposed story is not new at all for we have seen it in films such as ram gopal varma’s nishabd and anant balani’s joggers park . so , when it finally began , one was curious to see how ravichandran would tell or as he mentions in the opening credits , ‘design’ this story .
bollywood actress alia bhatt was born on 15 march 1993 , she is the daughter of filmmaker mahesh bhatt and actress soni razdan . after making her acting debut as a child artist in the 1999 thriller sangharsh , alia played her first leading role in karan johar’s romantic drama student of the year ( 2012 ) , which earned her a nomination for the film fare award for best female debut .
last tango in paris tells the story of a man who enters into an anonymous affair after his wife takes her own life . it shocked audiences on its release in the early 1970s due to its graphic depictions of sex and rape , and remains controversial today . long after the film was made many still speculated that the sex scenes were real but schneider later confirmed this was not the case .
the film became noted for being the onscreen debut of rajinikanth , who went on to become one of tamil cinema ' s most successful actors . during his stay at the film chamber institute in chennai , rajinikanth , then known by his real name , shivaji rao gaekwad , was performing in a stage play and attracted the attention of balachander . at the auditions , gaekwad imitated sivaji ganesan to prove his mettle to balachander , but balachander wanted gaekwad to have an identity of his own and to perform without imitating the mannerisms of another person . two days later , when gaekwad was called again for a second audition , he took a cigar in his hand and threw it stylishly into his mouth , which impressed balachander as he had not seen such unique mannerisms in any other actor that he came across since then .
no songs but the background score of poornachandra tejaswi is excellent . it is definitely the best kannada movie of this year and just shows how well kannada film industry is progressing . last year , we had some outstanding films like rangitaranga , aatagara , kendasampige , and uppi 2 . this year , we have had thithi and now u - turn . godhi banna saadharana maykattu also looks promising and i’m looking forward to it .
when the matter was taken to the madras high court , it did not accept dasan ' s contention for the script , hence handing the rights to balachander . duraisamy produced the film under their production banner , kalakendra films . b . lokanath was chosen as the cinematographer and n . kittu as the editor , while ramasamy was chosen as the art director . recalling her experience in an interview with shobha warrier of rediff in may 2 .
• in 2014 , rajinikanth got the stay from the madras high court to stop the release of bollywood film ' main hoon rajinikanth . ' later , the name of the film was changed to ' main hoon part - time killer . ' • in 2015 , the madras high court issued a notice to rajinikanth , on a plea by a financier to take action against the director , kasthuri raja , father of the dhanush . the financier also claimed that he gave money to kasthuri raja after he had used rajinikanth ' s name . he wanted rajinikanth to ' initiate action against his relative for misusing his name without his consent . ' • in 2017 , lyca productions announced that rajinikanth will unveil a housing scheme by its charity wing ' gnanam foundation ' for displaced tamils in jaffna , sri lanka . after this announcement , the pro - tamil protested against rajinikanth ' s visit .
the trouble with ‘whodunit’ mysteries is that they build up to a reveal which may not meet viewer expectations . ‘that’s it ? ’ could be our reaction to the alleged twists . the unconvincing and stilted disclosure or answer drastically reduces the possibility of repeat viewings . kannada filmmaker pawan kumar’s second feature film u - turn suffers from a similar problem . he devises a good , puzzling journey , only to flood it with twists that are uninteresting and generic .
the film moves at quite a brisk pace in the first half , where the masterful director pavan kumar of lucia fame unravels the plot in an intriguing manner . there are no unwanted scenes or songs , and the screenplay is gripping and taut . shraddha srinath and roger narayan ( remember hola venky ! ) have pulled off marvelous performances and will keep you on the edge of your seats . the wonderful bgm by poornachandra tejasvi complements the narrative exceptionally well .
varun dhawan ( born 24 april 1987 ) is an indian actor who appears in hindi films . varun dhawan height is 5 feet 9 inches ( 1 . 73 metres ) . he is the son of film director david dhawan . varun dhawan studied business management from the nottingham trent university after which he worked as an assistant director to karan johar for 2010 released drama movie my name is khan . dhawan made his acting debut with johar’s 2012 romantic comedy student of the year .
the first person to discover his inherent flair for acting was k . balachander , an indian director working primarily in the tamil industry . however , balachander wasn’t impressed with rajinikanth’s acting prowess right away . at their first meeting , when rajinikanth auditioned , he delivered some of sivaji ganesan’s dialogues and copied his mannerisms . unfortunately , balachander rejected him and advised him to develop a style of his own and to learn tamil . the next time they met , balachander , convinced of rajinikanth’s acting skills , gave him a small role in his upcoming film .
back to apoorva , it all starts with the typical one man show , trying to connect with the audience in his own manner . as usual , after yet another innovative show of title cards , a literal never saga of philosophy on love and life starts unfolding . a short and simple love story of a 61 year old man and a 19 year old girl is the crux , to which he knots it with a terrorist angle . however , it is not so simple as it sounds , or even to watch it . it literally requires a brain with high end eyes and a fair bit of english knowledge . his huge fan base , who only knows the language of love and who cannot follow english , are sure for a huge disappointment .
though he thought of completing the film early , it took two and half years to finish ! it is a re - recording that consumed most of the time , he points out . similarly , when his friends approved the seventh version of the script , he kept on revising it , before “okaying” the 19th draft . attributing the delay to his intention to draw the audience in to the theatre , he says , “i did not want to repeat the mistake committed during release of ekangi , which was understood by the audience after several shows . ”

kapoor and shah bicker brilliantly and with great dignity at that . khan is expectedly charming and delightfully at ease with his personable self . he seems to just inhabit his scenes than acting them out . even though it’s a tad hard to imagine malhotra as a budding novelist he holds his own with his solid presence and vulnerable glances . it’s aalia bhatt who seems to be playing her usual hyper , ditzy , little sunshine girl act yet again . what disappointed me most was rishi kapoor with the terrible prosthetics ( why couldn’t another older actor have been cast in the role ) and loud presence , perhaps in tune with his character but totally out of sync with the rest of the mellow , subtle tenor of the film .
rajinikanth , as we know him now , was born on 12 december 1950 , in a marathi family , the youngest of four siblings . named after marathi king chhatrapthi shivaji , rajinikanth had to take on odd jobs like carpentry and as a coolie , from an early age , to ensure his family could afford three meals a day . while supporting his family , rajinikanth nurtured his acting talent by participating in several school plays . one notable role he played was that of duryodhana in kurukshetra . later , when he was working as a bus conductor for the bangalore transport service ( bts ) , he felt drawn to the stage again and began acting in kannada plays . rajinikanth joined the madras film institute in 1973 to pursue a diploma in acting .
the busy screenplay reminds one a lot of piku : the frenzied frames , the hyper characters , the constant motion in the sequences . like piku it is yet another film that has been brilliantly crafted and mapped out in terms of the writing , how the scenes slowly get built up towards a crescendo . it’s an onion peel narrative in which the relationships , revelations , secrets and lies , unfinished confidences , unresolved issues , betrayals and conflicts are unspooled layer by layer . little hints are thrown here and there , that eventually accumulate to lead on to outbursts . the simple , conversational exchanges and the repartee are the other high points as is the acting : how the actors play off against each other with pitch perfect timing . there is something very finely calibrated and nicely measured about the entire package that is kapoor & sons . what’s more it’s delightfully engaging despite being rooted in the everyday , the banal and the seemingly trite . even fixing a fuse with a wooden stick becomes a delightful scene in batra’s hands .
arguments , conflicts and clashes normally don’t make for a pleasant viewing . shakun batra’s kapoor & sons , however , keeps you riveted as you move from one family fight to another—from the dining table to the kitchen to the bathroom , the lawn and the party , from the husband - wife to the brothers . at times two brawls run parallel , or they spark off each other . even at its most ugly and shrill the film stays so real and believable that what you see on screen feels like your very own family war zone , a bitter - sweet slice of your own life . even as a silent spectator you get planted in the action and become a participant . so at one level there is the sense of indulgence and affection towards the characters who could well have been your own granddad , father , mother , uncle or brother , at another it is also a curiously therapeutic experience where you step out of the theatre having come to terms with at least a few of your own demons , if not entirely exorcised all the ghosts .
