shah rukh khan ' s g . one from ra . one could come . . .
his is clone season down south . there are many of them in production , may be as many are there are behind . but the biggest among them all is
wait , wait , wasn ' t this something about remakes , you might well inquire . it is , it is , for
now , a small matter of concern for naidu here . he ' s the one that ' s aiming for an entry into the
for producing the maximum number of films . trouble is , that the director is kaushik , rendered famous for the delay in making
we hear , the film ' s been nearly completed in a year , and that he ' ll prove the doomsday prophets wrong yet .
ut that isn ' t the only remake around , as we told you .
are also getting telugu versions , though the latter ' s just being dubbed . there ' s also
says he is not too happy with the remake culture and that he ' s clambered on the bandwagon just to keep moving .
is one of those serious ones , dealing with the suicides of farmers in karnataka . it stars two superstars , shivraj kumar and
arriage has not affected abbas ' s stock in the heart - throb market . the bangalore boy , gained from hanging out on m g road in his native town that ' s when
in hindi this time - - sank like a stone at the b . o .
and in the sequel , he walked off with preeti , with the approval of both families . that ' s the sequel ,
umm , what else . . . yes . he ' s also doing the role
never does things in half measures . so when he makes a lavish set for a song , he spends rs 10 million on it .
and when he ' s hit by misfortune , it really lays the whip on him . so bad a time has he had that he thought that maybe changing the name of his film ' s
the trouble he ' s had includes the recent flood in madras that washed away a set erected on the banks of the cooum .
with telephones as the theme . there ' s also a gigantic phone , complete with dial and working disc .
and if you thought he was behind the times there , never fear , for he has even put up a giant cellular phone on the sets too .
gets a name finally . apparently an excess of experimentation doesn ' t work .
charkravarthy , who produced this movie , invited the audience to give it a title and announced a prize of rs 400 , 000 . and though the movie - makers weren ' t happy with the popular choice , they decided to sigh and take it . apparently thousands thought that was the right name for it . well , anything ' s better than
and then there ' s chakravarthy next film , where he plays an inveterate liar .
as the title suggests , it is do with a cinema hall . parthiban has adopted a theatre in madurai and is busy shooting somewhere within .
got married recently . and that kind of messed up her life . for hubby is in the us of a and she ' s here , meeting commitments to sun tv , since she stars in a role in its daily soap ,

orry , that wasn ' t strictly marquee material . so more about the remakes we ' ve kept on about this week .

handsome . intelligent . talented . actor . director . script writer . singer . . . one man with so many ' kamaals ' ( magical skills ) ! kamal haasan is not just an actor , he is an inspiration ! he has sported various roles on and off screen , and has won accolades for his every venture . irrespective of whether his movie bombs at the box office or runs to a golden jubilee , he continues to make movies of substance . and after the thrilling unnaipol oruvan , the legendary actor is back on screen with manmadhan ambu ( cupid ' s arrow ) . this time , kamal is back with one of his favourite directors k . s . ravikumar . the kamal - ravikumar combo has always delivered hits . remember the hilarious avvai shanmugi ( 1996 ) , thenali ( 2000 ) , panchathantiram ( 2002 ) and dasavathaaram ( 2008 ) ? interestingly , this combo has never failed at the box office till date .
manmadhan ambu has the beautiful trisha pairing up with kamal haasan for the first time in their careers . maddy ( madhavan ) is also back with kamal after anbe sivam . who can forget the powerful anbe sivam ( also scripted by kamal haasan ) ? the portrayal of his own character and that of madhavan are complete and flawless - and both the actors have lived their roles . manmadhan ambu has a huge star cast , which includes sangeetha , ramesh arvind , usha uthup , manju pillai and suriya ( in a cameo appearance ) . more that half the film was extensively shot across europe and on a cruise ship .
kamal haasan ' s comedies are always unique and ribtickling . there is a streak of humour in this man that makes his comedies inspire laughter like only he can . michael madana kama rajan , avvai shanmugi , pammal k samandham , panchathanthiram , vasool raja mbbs are proof enough !
returning to manmadhan ambu , it narrates the story of three persons : major mannar ( kamal haasan ) , industrialist madhan gopal ( madhavan ) and ambujakshi ( trisha ) . in addition , sangeetha plays the role of deepa ( divorcee with two children ) , ambujakshi ' s close friend . ramesh arvind is mannar ' s close friend suffering from cancer . then there is oviya , madhan ' s cousin .
madhan is deeply and madly in love with actress ambujakshi but he always suspects her , which eventually ends in quarrels . when ambujakshi goes abroad ( paris ) to enjoy her vacation , madhan gets irritated and approaches private detective mannar to spy on her . mannar accepts the job on one condition : madhan has to take care of the medical expenses of rajan ( ramesh arvind ) . meanwhile , deepa also goes to paris with her children . and with that , the hilarious joy ride begins !
the film also has some interesting flashbacks like madhan ' s accident , mannar ' s commando life and marriage ! the film gets even more hilarious when mannar hatches a conspiracy against madhan .
when it comes to performances , who can be better than the legendary kamal ? yes , it ' s kamal all the way ; like an all - rounder he is right there in all departments . his witty one liners , dances and stunts are a treat for the audience . manmadhan ambu is definitely a treat for all kamal fans . madhavan is not too far behind . he has played a complex character with ease . he has once again proved his versatility and acting brilliance . pretty lass trisha has dubbed in her own voice in the film . her subtle emotions need special mention ! so get ready to see a new trisha .
sangeetha has given her best and she fits the bill perfectly . ramesh arvind , urvashi , kitty , usha uthup , maju pillai , oviya and kunjan have done their parts well . suriya make a special appearance in a song sequence with trisha . we salute producer udhayanidhi stalin for his wonderful efforts ! as kamal rightly said , the star cruise plays a very prominent role in the film .
above all , it ' s director k . s . ravikumar ' s racy screenplay that makes the film more interesting . he has ensured that fans are not disappointed all through . music by devi sri prasad is apt and perfect , with the song ' neelavaanam ' standing out . cinematography by manush nandan is rich and sophisticated and shaan mohammed ' s editing is neat and sleek .
cast : vikram , tamammah music : thaman direction : vijay chandar kanave kanave : singer – vikram simple tune , sweet lyrics and the wonderful vocals of vikram to go along with it . thaman constructs a gentle melody that sounds good even after a long . . .

harakiri , or madame butterfly , is a 1919 silent film directed in germany by fritz lang .

it was one of the first japanese-themed films depicting japanese culture .

the film was originally released in the united states and other countries as madame butterfly because of the source material on which it is based and which also inspired giacomo puccini 's eponymous opera .

the film starred lil dagover as o-take-san .

fritz lang ' s harakiri ( 1919 ) is a great film for its time . very sad , but compelling storyline . the film doesn ' t explain , however , who the european woman is that olaf returned to after his first vist to japan & who accompanied him on his second visit there . is she his european wife ? is she his sister ? anyway , the film has very accurate & very elaborate japanese façade . very elaborate japanese costumes , very elaborate japanese interior décor , very elaborate japanese buildings , very elaborate japanese garden scenes , replete with thick , mature bamboos , exotic birds , & japanese style bridges . seems no way that lang had such an elaborate & seemingly accurate japanese façade for this film constructed in germany , yet the idea that he took a filmmaking crew on the road all the way from germany to japan in 1919 just to make this fine film seems rather unlikely as well . guess we ' ll never know ! !

- surprisingly well done . - adaptation of the opera without the music ( and hocus pocus ) makes for a solid film . - it ' s easy for people to immediately jump on the orientalism bandwagon , but they tend to forget that this film is a tragedy and the actions of the characters are justified in the film ( not to say that said ' s cultural theory is wrong ) . there are definitely issues with this , but it ' s not like the big ol ' racist boogeyman was unconsciously behind every move like the invisible hand .

metropolis ( 1926 ) as screenwriter in this silent film , a city of the future is threatened with destruction when a wealthy corporate leader enlists a mad scientist to put down labor reformers .
i was already very familiar to this story having seen the 2 silent adaptations in the 1915 version with mary pickford and fritz lang ' s harakiri 1919 . this is the first talkie of madame butterfly and it ' s got sylvia sidney as the asian lady cho - cho san . sidney ' s eyes are so unique that she can almost pass for a japanese . at least by hollywood caucasian standards of the time . much more believable then pickford years earlier .
an adaptation of
madame butterfly ,
the tragic romance harakiri indulged lang ' s fascination with asian culture and orientalist design . filmed on the outskirts of berlin , lang strived for authenticity , and obtained sets and costumes from the hamburg anthropological museum .
harakiri is problematic . as an adaptation of the great madame butterfly it is strongly lacking but creates its own space . my real qualms with this movie is that i din ' t like it . it was slow and whitewashed and simplistic . i do think , however , it is important .
lilith und ly ( 1919 ) as screenwriter in this apparently lost film an inventor uses a strange jewel to bring to life a statue of lilith , and falls in love with her . soon , however , she begins to appear on a screen , also developed by the inventor , which reveals her to be a vampire who is slowly sucking his life essence from him , causing him to gradually fade away . he realizes the situation has become even more drastic when he notices his new love , ly , is being possessed by lilith and has also begun fading away .
early fritz lang film with some great production design behind it . beyond that it ' s an impersonally told story that only occasionally shows genuine emotion . the whitewashing of the story ( lang seems to like buddhist culture without really understanding it ) doesn ' t help its case either . he ' d make better films later in his career .
the script for this early fritz lang includes a backstory for the beautiful o - take - san , the central character in the puccini opera madame butterfly . in this film an evil buddhist priest who lusts after her spreads lies about her father . he tells the emperor her father , the diamyo , returns from his travels with foreign objects and is no longer loyal to japan . the emperor sends two men to see the diamyo , they hand him a knife , and tell him he must commit harakiri to prove his subservience . once he is dead , the priest takes o - take - san to the forbidden garden where she will be made a priestess , but she still refuses his advances . around this time she meets a european naval officer…
i have about zero familiarity with madame butterfly so this film really has to stand on its own for me . in that relative vacuum i liked it well enough . certainly it isn ' t as good as the films lang would be making in even just a couple of years , but as a formal piece of observation it is fairly nice with a story i could imagine working as a truly amazing film in the hands of someone like wong kar wai . lang ' s , a bit like brecht with the chinese opera , love of japanese culture is spread throughout making it much more charming than if someone who just used japan as a window dressing would likely have it . though in the same…
ponderous film version of puccini ' s opera that features none of its music until the final credits . sidney is good as the tragic cho - cho san , but cary grant gets little chance to shine as b . f . pinkerton , who comes across as a flippant and unlikable character . the couple ' s reunion is achingly poignant , but it ' s a bit of a slog getting to it .
die pest in florenz ( 1919 ) as screenwriter suddenly appearing in florence , an evil seductress causes cesare , the city ' s ruler , and his son to both fall madly in love with her . the son , killing his father before an order to torture the woman can be carried out , then turns the city ' s churches into dens of sexual debauchery . acts of evil and corruption continue unabated until the arrival of death , who brings with her a horrible plague which she is about to loose upon the city .

incorporating more than 25 minutes of newly discovered footage , this 2010 restoration of metropolis is the definitive edition of fritz lang’s science fiction masterpiece .
filled with the sexual intrigue and high - tech gadgetry that continue to define the genre , spies remains remarkably contemporary , even 75 years after its premiere .
may irwin and john c . rice enact the final moment from the widow jones , a musical comedy then playing on broadway .
a spanish cavalryman falls in love with carmen , a gypsy dancer , which leads to his demise .
the wandering shadow follows a woman who , in the wake of a sex scandal , seeks solitude in the bavarian alps . there , she is continually haunted by her past , but soon stumbles upon the one thing she never expected to find : the chance of redemption .
four around the woman involves a society woman who must navigate through a complex web of criminal and emotional intrigues .
c’est encore primitif , une drôle de chose orientaliste , très attachée à l’iconographie de griffith et à ses logiques de montage alterné . ici lang fait le coup entre l’europe et le japon , la concubine nouvellement mère qui attend le retour inespéré du colon militaire qui l’a enfanté — pendant ce temps le lieutenant l’a oublié et s’est reconstruit une vie en angleterre — , puis le montage alterne entre les deux , créant de grands écarts visuels entre l’orient et l’occident . c’est assez guindé , théâtral et très peu ambitieux au niveau de la mise en scène , mais dans l’idée on retrouve déjà la majorité des thèmes de lang ( la trahison , l’antagonisation qui se construit à l’insu des personnages , le suicide des épleurés ) . le…
incidentally , the version of this on netflix streaming looks like ass , but it ' s a far sight better than any that can be found online .
wow , that was boring . and some of the laziest whitewashing i ' ve seen in a movie .
gotta love the idea of filming one of the most famous operas , madama butterfly , as a silent movie .
the main leads ( e . g . lil dagover ) are all germans dressed up as japanese but the bit players are of asian descent . the set design is pretty nice and this is one of fritz lang ' s first forays into exotic adventureland .
still , not exactly his most noteworthy production . better stuff was soon to come .
i didn ' t know fritz lang was a weeaboo . guess there ' s a longer history behind this .
this is the most stolidly directed thing i ' ve ever seen from lang , mostly just kind of planting the camera and letting the scenes play out at length , but it ' s certainly watchable - though , if you ' ve seen madame butterfly , it drags a bit waiting for it to get where you know it ' s going . the divergences from the opera actually occur mostly at the beginning , where it adds ( i think ? unless there are elements to verdi ' s version i ' m forgetting ) a bit of derring - do for perry ( here , olaf ) in having him find butterfly in a forbidden garden and rescue her from a geisha house and so forth - it motivates her devotion to him somewhat , though it makes his utter disinterest in her in the…
