son of saul ,
by hungarian director laszlo nemes , is in many ways a very unusual film . its world premiere was celebrated last year at the cannes film festival , where it won the grand jury prize - the most important award after the golden palm . it then toured the film festival circuit before winning an oscar in february for best foreign language film .

the good son is bursting with action , love , loss , betrayal and so much more – it is the sort of book you pick up and hours later emerge from , wondering where the time went . like a fine point of light , the desire to be loved and accepted drives the good son toward an ending that leaves the reader satisfied , if somewhat unsettled .

“you’re all over it , the film’s crap , the movie’s garbage , ” bateman cheerfully announced , and he described the film’s premise as “tired , some would say pleasantly familiar” .
he criticised ministers for ‘pretending that one parent is as good as two , or that two parents of the same sex are as good as two natural parents of the opposite sex’ .
it’s with a certain relish , therefore , that i’m now going to compare paul mcveigh’s the good son to doyle’s paddy clarke ha ha ha . the shadow of paddy clarke grows longer as the years go by . it looms over anyone going for a vivid , heart - wrenching description of irish boyhood , whether in the republic or the north . it clouds , in other words , any reading of the good son .

‘i meant to dip into the good son and ended up reading it all the way through in a matter of days . i love it . it’s brilliantly sparky and original , the story trips along effortlessly , the characters are all wonderfully alive and paul mcveigh has a real ear for the music of dialogue and prose . the good son fairly ripples with wicked humour , warmth and coming - of - age wonder . ’ — sarah hilary

according to an entertainment weekly post about “taffy butt , ” lauper did it because her son liked the show and convinced her . ( thank you for this , cyndi lauper’s son . ) asked about how “taffy butt” compares to “good enough , ” lauper answered , “oh , it’s a classic too . ”

however , the director only had praise for
son of saul ,
calling it a kind of
anti - ' schindler ' s list '
- a film suited to keeping the memory of the genocide alive .
this progress was suddenly interrupted when kit culkin , macaulay culkin ' s father and manager , at the time a notoriously influential force in hollywood due to the child ' s stardom , wanted his son to star in the film . wishing to prove macaulay ' s capacity in a dark role , he made his part in the the good son a condition for his appearing in home alone 2 : lost in new york . fox agreed enthusiastically due to culkin ' s bankability . as the movie was originally scheduled to shoot at the same time as home alone 2 , the start date for the good son was pushed back for a year , making steenburgen no longer available but enabling elijah wood ' s involvement .

in his film , justin captures surprising his dad with the tickets after flying back home to palatine from the west coast last week . the footage also shows father and son in the stands during the first world series game to be played at wrigley field since 1945 .
this was a really good read ! the descriptions of the landscape were lyrical and the characters beautifully developed . evoked real emotional response .
the film will highlight bad boy ' s humble beginnings and its years of chart - topping success .

steven spielberg , who wrote the story for goonies and also served as an executive producer , asked lauper to handpick the songs that would go on the film’s soundtrack . lauper also co - wrote the theme song , though with the simpler title “good enough . ” the word “goonies” actually is not in the lyrics , and the “goonies ‘r’ ” part was tacked onto the title to help promote the film .
good colors , evil colors : mark wears a blue jacket and henry wears a red jacket .
this movie is realy good . it has touched me deeply . you have to see it .
the good news for fans of both lauper and the goonies is that in the early 2000s , she reversed her decision not to sing it in concert set lists , and at long last “goonies ‘r’ good enough” appeared on 2003’s the essential cyndi lauper .

the son is a sweeping family saga that traces the story of eli mccullough’s transformation from good - natured innocence to calculated violence , as he loses everything on the wild frontier , setting him on the path to building a ranching - and - oil dynasty of unsurpassed wealth and privilege .
i didn ' t get to see the movie when it came out , but lucked onto the book at the library sometime later . the story is interesting and suspenseful . the book itself is surprisingly well written for a film novelization . overall a pretty good read .
because the film was set during the civil war , leone wanted to preserve a certain sense of accuracy , and went to america to research the film . among his inspirations were library of congress documents and the photographs of legendary photographer mathew brady . the film is not completely historically accurate , though . it features the use of dynamite before that particular explosive was invented .
mcveigh’s debut novel the good son ( salt publishing , april 2015 ) is a triumph of vivid recall , a wrenching - off of the protective scabs that i , and many like me , have allowed to grow over the wounds of an upbringing in the sectarian streets of northern ireland during the troubles . with a good dose of survivor guilt , and a shame - faced glance in the direction of is and boko haram , we mutter to ourselves , “it wasn’t really that bad . ” the good son is a swift and savage reminder that for so many of my countrymen and women , it really was that bad and there is little need for exaggeration .
“well , he’s a fucking dickhead , isn’t he ? ” the filth - monster himself responds when i tell him of his onscreen son’s verdict .

not bad for a paperback thriller , and a little more unconventional than most . this book was adapted into a film as well , but the book is slightly different and has its own suspense separate from the film at times .

careful viewers of the “dollars trilogy” will note that , though it’s the final film , the good , the bad and the ugly actually takes place prior to the other two films . among the clues : eastwood acquires his iconic poncho , worn in both a fistful of dollars and for a few dollars more , in the final minutes .
before its midpoint , though , the film puts this local - boy - done - good narrative aside to focus on duk koo kim , a korean boxer whose origins were equally dramatic . miller spends lots of time discussing kim ' s impoverished childhood , then introduces us to his wife and the son who was still unborn when he tried to take the world lightweight title from mancini in 1982 .

32 . pulp fiction . released : 1994 . featuring : al green , neil diamond , chuck berry . why it ' s good : from samuel l jackson ( back when he starred in good movies ) holding forth on the merits of the royale with cheese to dusty springfield ' s ' son of a preacher man ' and of course the chuck berry track from the iconic dance scene , this was full of delights .
the writer ' s style was unusual and at times the reaction / comments of the characters seemed inappropriate for the situation , but that made the dialog unpredictable ( good thing ? ? ) .
superb film , written ( bizarrely ) by novelist ian mcewan . this film was a source of huge controversy in the uk , with the original release caught up in the early 90s manifestation of the tabloid vs . bbfc battle , this time sparked by the terrible murder of james bulger .
ther hungarians in the film , in fact , tell him he has no son . but he goes to dangerous efforts to bury the corpse , hunting for a rabbi to help , striking deals with fellow prisoners and repeatedly risking his own summary execution as he neglects his work .
who in the world would want to see this movie ? watching
the good son ,
i asked myself that question , hoping that perhaps the next scene would contain the answer , although it never did . the movie is a creepy , unpleasant experience , made all the worse because it stars children too young to understand the horrible things we see them doing .
as the truck rams the car over the cliff and falls off in the final film , there is a low roar sound effect that the filmmaker included to emphasize the death of the truck . spielberg , who wanted the truck to seem
though it has to forever compete with the searchers and high noon , few western films will ever have the impact of the good , the bad and the ugly , the final film in sergio leone’s “dollars trilogy” and the most famous spaghetti western ( that is , films in the american western style made by italian directors ) of all time . it catapulted clint eastwood to super - stardom , changed the way countless directors thought about the genre , and continues to influence film to this day . so , in celebration of the film ' s 50th anniversary , here are a dozen facts about the legendary tale of gunslingers on the hunt for treasure .
most sports fans will want more coverage of mancini ' s post - 1982 career than they get here , but given the material it ' s easy to understand the direction miller takes : after drawing out the similarities between mancini and kim , the film arranges for the latter ' s now - grown son to meet mancini for the first time . though the encounter , held at mancini ' s home , is presented a little too neatly in line with therapeutic cliches of closure and healing , it is surely something both parties needed , and the good son uses it to wipe some of the tarnish off one of boxing ' s most famous careers .
so even though we’ve met up in a hotel in la to discuss his two latest films , horrible bosses 2 and this is where i leave you , he doesn’t seem especially interested in discussing either . bateman is the best thing in both of them . the most common refrain in reviews of pretty much every film he has starred in over the past decade has been that he is better than the material , such as the change up ( body - swap film with ryan reynolds ) , the switch ( sperm - swap film with jennifer aniston ) and identity thief ( identity - swap film with melissa mccarthy ) . even extract , the promising - on - paper mike judge film in which he starred alongside ben affleck , mila kunis , kristen wiig and jk simmons , felt like a film half - written . is it that hard to find good comedy scripts ?
hands - down my least favorite film ever . i absolutely hate this film . . . . and as a result , i am expecting one of my friends to buy me a copy as a gag gift .
“all good things , ” directed by andrew jarecki , includes restaging a seedy times square where the durst organization was a major landlord .
britain has been in the throes of a veritable royals fever since the wedding of prince harry to us actress meghan markle . next up is the baptism of prince louis , the youngest son of the duke and duchess of cambridge .

it ' s been showing since late last year in cinemas in many countries around the world - but in germany , the film had a difficult time finding a distributor . only now - a week and a half after the oscars - is the unusual holocaust film opening in german theaters .

i absolutely could not miss this ,
justin said in his film , which was posted online saturday .
patrick o ' donnell , who says
bullshit
in a bar scene in
good will hunting ,
was actually the man behind the math equations used in the film . he , alongside john mighton , who plays gerald lambeau ' s assistant in the movie , created the equations and graphic theorems seen onscreen .
verena lueken , film critic for germany ' s daily
frankfurter allgemeine zeitung ,
asked after the premiere ,
can anyone imagine the filming process ? the relationship between the actors and the characters they are playing ?
she reached the conclusion :
there are good reasons for the taboo that the holocaust should not be the stuff of fiction . they should still be valid .
it’s gripping and effective , in other words . sometimes the action gets a little confusing . sometimes too , the insistent period details and listing of types of sweets feel sickly . sometimes it doesn’t feel quite as impressive as paddy clarke ha ha ha . but on the whole the good son works . paul mcveigh needn’t feel embarrassed by comparisons .
50 . about a boy . released : 2002 . featuring : badly drawn boy . why it ' s good : something about the bittersweet quality of the film coaxed from damon gough some of his prettiest songs , chief among them the lennon - esque piano track ' silent sigh ' .
naim ' s incredible mu - so qb takes you back to the good old days - where the music captivates and enthralls , rather that simply being something in the background .
everything else - even the crimes committed by the nazis - seems blurry . the intense use of sound lends the film a great deal of authenticity , to the point that it practically has the effect of a documentary .

during the tff discussion , van sant confirmed that a lot of the lines in the movie were improvised , including the one sean maguire ( robin williams ) says after reading will hunting ' s ( matt damon ) letter at the end of the film :
son of a bitch . you stole my line .
but the best improvisation happened in between takes , when the crew was setting up shots .
strange . you ' d imagine that the tyke ' s parents and managers would have paid good money to keep him out of this story .
good smoking , evil smoking : the first sign of henry ' s true nature is that he smokes and gets mark to smoke as well .
but it wasn’t all good luck . spielberg was not happy when stock footage of both vehicles was later used in an episode of the television series
4 . natural born killers . released : 1994 . featuring : nine inch nails , cowboy junkies , bob dylan . why it ' s good : soundtrack co - producer trent reznor watched the film over 50 times to
get in the mood
, before assembling a cacophony of competing styles , ranging from his own industrial rock , through to leonard cohen and l7 . the result was as heavy and deranged as the film .
42 . nick and norah ' s infinite playlist . released : 2008 . featuring : vampire weekend , devendra banhart . why it ' s good : music was obviously crucial to this romantic comedy : screenwriter lorene scafaria even submitted a cd compilation with her original script . the end result was just a really good indie - rock mixtape - to sit alongside a film with bags of charm .
i recall the pure evil of the child in this film . henry constructed a dummy to throw over a bridge and kill drivers . he tortures his cousin mark . the film disturbed me because i couldn ' t erase the notion that a child could be so malicious and tormenting . the movie is also very well done .
nova can write . the book was glowingly reviewed by john irvine . i can understand why irvine liked it . the good son and irvine ' s books have the same quirky feel . yes , i liked it . it was not an easy read because there are lots of nutty characters . it is a story of maneuvers between father and son for power . mrs . mackinnon , the mom is only mildly interested in her son or her husband . she is obsessed with insects . about every 25 pages we have a chapter devoted to her study . those few pages are facts about insects . ( i told you it was quirky ) . wade the chauffeur is a great character . he adds to the father vs son drama . pop is hard drinking , cigar smoking , and a law unto himself . chip the son is an attractive passive aggressive type . there are girlfriends who are accepted and those who are rejected by pop . keep reading . the last chapter is required reading ! ! ! ! nova kept his sense of humor hidden until the final pages .
2 . “fox on the run , ” sweet “fox on the run” is a trailer - only song that doesn’t actually appear in the film , much like “spirit in the sky” from the first soundtrack lp .
germany is one of the last countries to release the oscar - winning hungarian concentration camp drama
son of saul
in cinemas . it raises the never - ending question of whether fiction can truly do justice to the holocaust .
here is halle berry , playing a game of brum - brum in her car with her son , whom she loves . i mean , she evidently doesn’t love him enough to keep her eyes on the road , but that’s beside the point . the film’s called kidnap , after all , not vehicular homicide due to parental negligence .
the trailer ends with berry staring down her son’s kidnapper and growling : “you took the wrong kid . ” not “abducting children is wrong , so please stop doing it” . not “the police will be here in a minute” . “you took the wrong kid . ” this is basically a film about a terrifying vigilante who kills innocent people and then chides her son’s abductor for not performing due diligence during the research phase of his kidnapping . let that be a lesson to any aspiring child abductors out there : you should only kidnap the children of anyone who looks like they don’t love their kid as much as halle berry . not that it matters , of course , because as soon as she’s reunited with her son , she’s getting sent to prison for murder . i hope this film makes no money and ends someone’s career .
this is macaulay culkin ' s best film . he was very creepy as the young boy with a black heart . the dialogue was great . i truly admired the performance of elijah wood , emerging as one of the best young actors around . this film has so much suspense , by the end , i was very exhausted .
it ' s drama — happy mask , sad mask ,
said the film ' s director , david ayer , describing the film ' s overall tone .
that ' s what i worked really hard on : the emotional peaks and valleys , the moments of elation and fun and also the pathos of it .

‘books of the month : the good son is a truly affecting and absorbing novel . it not only explores the personal journey mickey goes on during the summer months before he starts secondary school but it also offers a eye opening social commentary on the troubles . it is quite horrific to see how apathetic and numb mickey and his community have become to the house raids , bombs and murders they witness on a frequent basis , especially now that we have garnered some distance from this tense period in northern irish history . although only his debut novel , the good son perfectly illustrates what a masterful storyteller paul mcveigh is and i personally can’t wait to see what he does next . ’ — kellie chambers , ulster tatler
the medical mumbo jumbo . after hours of negotiation and a botched takedown by the most incompetent swat team ever filmed , john resorts to plan b : he prepares to shoot himself and have his heart transplanted into his son ' s body . the film says this is possible because the son ' s defective heart is three sizes too large , so his chest cavity can accommodate an adult heart . this isn ' t as nutty as it sounds—children do sometimes receive adult hearts—but only if their height and weight are fairly similar . since denzel looks about three times the size of the kid who plays his son , this particular transplant probably wouldn ' t have worked . not that it matters , thanks to . . .

the scenes weren ' t 100 % final but they were a good representation of the tone and the characters ,
hilfer said .
they went back and started writing songs and we got hundreds of submissions . we sifted through them with atlantic , warner bros . , david and the producers of the film and decided which ones were the strongest and had the most potential .
the summer holidays are a time of dread for mickey donnelly . secondary education is looming , but the prohibitive cost of the grammar school uniform has deprived him of his best chance to escape from belfast’s turbulent ardoyne neighbourhood . this isn’t the only cloud hanging over the delightful narrator of paul mcveigh’s debut novel , however : the good son ’s early - 80s backdrop is one of poverty , paranoia and violence , both sectarian and domestic , a terrifying world for a boy whose best friend is his little sister and whose favourite film is the wizard of oz .
the special effects expert who accidentally triggered the explosion with his words fled the set quickly , while leone simply said , “let’s go eat . ” the bridge was rebuilt , and the scene was re - shot , driving up the budget of the film .
the film was generally well - received by critics and moviegoers alike , and currently holds a rating of 75 / 100 ( decent / good ) on wfd ( web film database ) , based on 150 reviews written in the interim since late 1993 . revenue from us and international theaters grossed nearly $ 180 million altogether , while worldwide dvd and blu - disc sales have since added another $ 157 million to that total .
was a horror film that contains many psychological elements such as the five stages of grief , the serial killer triad , and antisocial personality disorder tendencies . it was a good example of psychology within media in the world and displays an accurate depiction of the natural behaviors , actions , and emotions of a sociopath at a younger adolescence age .
mickey’s first disappointment comes when his place at a good secondary school is lost after his father drinks away the family’s pittance . mickey , the titular son , doesn’t kick up a fuss for fear of adding to his mother’s burden . his longing for her approval is well drawn and affecting : “she smiles her ma smile , the one you try hard for . ”
9 . reservoir dogs . released : 1992 . featuring : stealers wheel why it ' s good : ' stuck in the middle with you ' was as much a fixture of student dorms in the nineties as che guevara , but the likes of sandy rogers and some judicious snippets from the film itself really shaped this into a landmark soundtrack .
parental abandonment : mark ' s mother dies at the start of the film , and his father is never seen again after leaving mark with his aunt and uncle .

17 . kids . released : 1995 . featuring : daniel johnston . why it ' s good : the film itself it a massively depressing and dark tale of drugs and aids , only brought up from the gutter by the soft sounds of daniel johnston and folk implosion . early post - rockers slint and sebadoh also feature .
after the premiere in cannes , critics touched on a fundamental problem in the film . is it legitimate for a fictional feature film to tackle the topic of concentration camps ? should brutal deeds , murders and gassing be portrayed by actors ? the debate is not new - it has previously surfaced in literature , theater , art and philosophy .
in the final film , tuco is designated as “the ugly , ” while lee van cleef’s character , angel eyes , is “the bad . ” in the original trailer for the american release , though , angel eyes is “the ugly” and tuco is “the bad . ”
“i am blessed to be introducing our film at the tribeca film festival , ” diddy said in a statement sent to billboard . “tribeca brings the biggest names in entertainment and culture together with visionaries from across industries to celebrate the power of storytelling . there is no better place to share the story behind the bad boy movement and this unprecedented musical event . ”
eagle - eyed viewers will catch the word “flammable” scrawled across the back of the truck , yet when it careens off the cliff at the end of the movie it doesn’t go boom . the studio wanted a big explosion , but the director wanted a slower demise for his film’s villain .
16 . pat garrett & billy the kid . released : 1973 . featuring : bob dylan . why it ' s good : remember ' knocking on heaven ' s door ' ? you ' ve got this album to thank . dylan ' s most instrumental soundtrack to the sam peckinpah film gave the western much of its tension .
for a while following the film’s release , lauper performed the song in concert – though simply as “good enough . ” but she dropped it from her repertoire altogether from 1987 onwards . despite the fact that the song hit no . 10 on the u . s . billboard top 100 , lauper also didn’t include it on her 1994 greatest - hits album twelve deadly cyns .
macaulay culkin , the million - dollar - bairn with the sticky - out ears , has a new film this autumn . it ' s called the good son and it ' s making everyone ' very excited ' . the studio is backing a ' teaser ' campaign , the culkin clan is celebrating mack ' s agility in a serious role and the audience at the try - outs started talking to the screen - which is a good sign , apparently . but the scriptwriter , the british novelist ian mcewan , is not excited . he hasn ' t seen the film - from which he considers himself ' sacked ' - and he will not be going to la to celebrate the opening . ' when i read that i ' ve sold out and am writing movies for macaulay culkin , ' he says stiffly , ' that i ' m ' prostrating ' my talent , i bridle . for one thing , i wrote the script when macaulay culkin was five years old . '
roger ebert was born on this day in 1942 , and died a little over five years ago . i owe a good part of my success…
‘mickey donnelly is one of those characters you believe in with all your heart . he is a boy who is both confused and astute , both sensitive and brave , and after i’d finished reading , i found i really missed his voice . the good son is a robust , funny , and truly charming first novel . ’ — alison moore
‘with his debut the good son , paul mcveigh , long a champion of writers , proves himself a writer to be championed . there are flashes of both roddy doyle’s paddy clarke and patrick mccabe’s francie brady in the character of mickey donnelly , who cartwheels fully - formed from the very first page , a spirited , exuberant and utterly engaging young narrator . the circumscribed world he inhabits – a few streets in north belfast at the start of the troubles – is vivid and fresh , brought fully to life , and mcveigh’s ear for the rhythms of his characters’ speech is second to none . the good son is a coming - of - age story written with a sharp eye and a big heart , and will establish paul mcveigh as an important new irish voice with stories to tell . ’ — lucy caldwell
57 tron . released : 2010 . featuring : daft punk . why it ' s good : it ' s the all - encompassing result of mixing the duo ' s dancefloor expertise with the drama of a 100 - piece orchestra . as we said when the film came out :
commissioning daft punk to do the soundtrack for tron legacy is perhaps the best idea that anyone within the disney corporation has had
.
the ballad of narayama
is a japanese film of great beauty and elegant artifice , telling a story of startling cruelty . what a space it opens…
diddy is set to make his mark at this year’s tribeca film festival with the premiere of his new documentary , “can’t stop , won’t stop : the bad boy story . ”
the first thing we see with real clarity , because it catches saul’s specific attention and haunts him for the film’s duration , is the grim sight of a doctor checking the heartbeat of a young boy who has miraculously survived the gas . he then calmly and methodically stifles him to death . saul claims that this is his son : something we struggle to believe , since his face barely displays a flicker of emotion as the boy dies .
60 . guardian ' s of the galaxy . released : 2014 . featuring : bowie and the runaways . why it ' s good the film’s hero star - lord carries a walkman with his awesome mix vol . 1 featuring classic rock . director james gunn told nme :
all the songs were written into the script and baked into the story - which is what makes it work so well .
‘paul mcveigh brilliantly achieves a very difficult thing : he turns a coming of age novel into high art , with complex yearnings . his young mickey donnelly navigates the troubles like huck finn navigates the mississippi river , prematurely becoming a fully - flighted adult and thereby letting us see the human condition through penetratingly fresh eyes . the good son is a work of genius from a splendid writer . ’ — robert olen butler
created by meyers , lee shipman and brian mcgreevy withkevin murphy as showrunner , the series is mainly set on the eve of the mexican revolution and the explosion of the oil industry in the lone star state . the son , which had a 10 - episode first season order , is produced by amc studios and sonar entertainment .
paul dergarabedian , senior media analyst at comscore , attributed the film’s success to the “universality of the fear of clowns” which created an “event for fans who came out to be scared en masse in the communal environment of the movie theater . ”
first , she explains that spielberg “stripped most of the music from the film . ” she writes , “apparently he felt like there was too much music , so the soundtrack was meaningless because most of the songs weren’t in the movie . ”
40 . shaft . released : 1971 . featuring : isaac hayes . why it ' s good : of all the great blaxploitation soundtracks to emerge in the 70s , this is the one everybody remembers . the theme from shaft , with its wah - wah intro , is now cinematic shorthand for a certain kind of atmospheric cool , referenced endlessly in tv and film .
comment : ex library book in good condition . uk expedited shipping available on this item for 4 . 99 . fast shipping . excellent customer feedback .
those taking part also answered questions about their personality . these ranged from ‘i think about fighting or being mean’ to ‘i think the world is a good , happy place’ .
“all good things , ” is a fictional account of the robert durst case . among the film’s actors and the individuals they stand in for are , top row from left , kirsten dunst and kathie durst ; ryan gosling and robert a . durst ; bottom row from left , diane venora and jeanine f . pirro ; frank langella and seymour durst .
, the film was in danger of seeming too ruthless an achievement for its own good . it pushes its vision to the bitter end , eschewing emotion , reflection , or intellectual framing as if banned at gunpoint from any such lapses . but these are the very dehumanising conditions saul is dealing with , and nemes ' s brave choice is to follow them to the letter .
nor was it cheap . clearing the rights to a beloved hit song for a film is a pricey proposition , easily running into the six figures . hilfer and kent decline to say how big a budget they had . but , with an overall net production budget for the film of about $ 175 million , they clearly had ample resources .
based on that short pitch , picker agreed to fund the film , and the movie was on its way . eventually , all three films were released in america over the course of a single year .
the good son
is an example of a direct novelization that worked extremely well in its basis from the movie , and even added a few key scenes that were missing from the movie that helped identify the characters within it better . on the whole , however , the characters were clearly defined , the setting established strongly , and the diction very sound and easy to follow . the story revolves around a young boy named mark who goes to stay with his relatives after his mother ' s death . but his world change
in the first half - hour or so of the film , as the various characters of the suicide squad are introduced , the action is accompanied by one classic rock song after another : ac / dc ' s
dirty deeds done dirt cheap ,
the rolling stones '
sympathy for the devil ,
creedence clearwater revival ' s
fortunate son ,
black sabbath ' s
paranoid ,
queen ' s
bohemian rhapsody
and on and on .
“i don’t know why , but the poster came into my mind— il buono , il brutto , il cattivo . ‘ the good , the bad and the ugly , ’” said vincenzoni . “it’s the story of three bums that go around through the civil war looking for money . ”
damon and affleck ended up winning the oscar for best original screenplay at the 70th annual academy awards for
good will hunting ,
and they might ' ve used a tactic that put the odds in their favor .

indrasish was not my boyfriend as he is not boyfriend material . he can only be a very good friend . he can ' t take a girl ' s tantrums . in fact , he was my best friend and i shared everything under the sun with him . then , things changed . . . but still we are good friends and party together .
bengali actress sampurna lahiri plays the role of anya in the plot of the play . she was present at the dubbing . in between the friendly banter with indrasish and anindya while dubbing for the film , the actress shed some light on the role that she is playing . anya is a smart confident model who is also involved with stage theater but not seriously .
indrasish roy - well , this is a good experience actually . when i worked under him , i was exposed to the film sets for the first time . i was so excited . i was an observer in his film . i did not have any idea about films . it was under him that i gained knowledge about films . i expressed my wish to become an actor to him . he said that at that moment it was not possible but he allowed me to be on his sets and observe . that helped me a lot . the life of an actor is like a script . see in his second film , i finally got the chance to work with him . this has indeed being a good journey .
roy is an english , scottish gaelic and french name of norman origin . this family name originated from the normans , meaning
northman
in several scandinavian languages , who were descendants of norse vikings from denmark , norway and iceland . the derivation is from the word rey or roi , meaning
king
, and in medieval times was used as a nickname either for one who behaved in a regal fashion , or who had earned the title in some contest of skill . it also appears in scottish gaelic , from the word ruadh , meaning red and galizan as roi . roy can also be found in india , a variant of the name
rai
, which was a historical title of honour in india conferred by the british raj .
as sonika shot to fame , her personal life too was speculated about . until recently , she would openly profess her love for shaheb bhattacherjee . though they were considered the ` it ' couple of kolkata , there were rumours of trouble in paradise in recent times . sonika would often be photographed with vikram and their friends suggest the two had grown close over the last couple of months . “sonika used to inspire us to become health conscious . she used to set targets like 500 crunches a day on our whatsapp group . i can ' t believe this , “ said indrasish roy . years back , at a beauty pageant , sonika was asked about a quote that left profound impact on her . “nothing can stop what your destiny holds for you , “ she had said back then . no one had any idea that affirmation would come like it did .
“the script of durga sohay is outstanding . the way all the characters have been mounted in the film is praiseworthy . each actor has his own space and carries the film forward . only recently , neerja and pink were feted at the 64th national film awards and this only means we too are in need of women - centric films . a woman ' s contribution in a man ' s life is unparalleled . the driving force in my life is my mother , “ said indrasish , who plays subho in the film . subho is married to manasi ( tonushree chakraborty ) and the two make for a lovey - dovey couple . “he is a positive man who tries to see the good in any person . i must admit that after working with arindamda , my approach towards life has changed . i have become more responsible as a human being , “ said indrasish .
���this film and my character have many layers . tajuda is a brilliant director and i have worked in projects where he���d written the script . i was about to act in a play directed by him but that , i guess , will happen later . indrasish and i are good friends off screen and that should help us portray the characters better , ��� said sohini , who is dubbing for selfie , starring soumitra chatterjee , right now .

director ranjan ghosh ( his first movie ) is good . his first time effort pays off quite well . mayookh bhaumik ' s music is praise - worthy . the entire cast has performed well , especially abir chatterjee and raima sen . indrasish makes you feel that his future as an actor is bright . on the whole hrid majharey is a must watch film . don ' t miss this film for anything . it will surely touch your heart as it has touched ours .
gaurav : indrasish and i were the first to reach . and we were waiting for everyone to arrive . soon the bell rang and i saw this beautiful girl entering the room . and since i was so shy i couldn’t look into her eyes . she came in with her father . i was quite awe - struck the first time i saw her . . . . and , kaushik kaku had informed me earlier that there was a kissing scene ! ridhima : there were three kissing scenes , and i thought of not doing the film !
and will go on the floors on july 11 . ���i have penned the script and dialogues for haar mana haar , which is based on subroto niyogi���s story swami o premika . the narrative is about a young couple that has an arranged marriage . you see them on their first anniversary , when everything seems perfect . there is love , understanding , friendship . then , as the story progresses , the misunderstandings crop up . the film deals with the dynamics of marriage in today���s world . what seems like a bed of roses is not so in real life . sohini and indrasish are both fabulous and i���m sure they will make a good on - screen pair , ��� said debapratim .

director ranjan ghosh deserves quite a few appreciative pats on the back for dealing with the shakespearean concepts in such an engaging manner . acting by the cast receives a big thumbs up and ably helps the director in this project . sohag sen as the soothsayer is just perfect . raima as the cardiologist does justice to her role . indrasish ray as shubhro also supports the acting department well . abir chatterjee as abhijit is fantastic in the romantic scenes . the soft look and the dimpled smile will melt many a girl’s heart away and debjani in the film falls for his charms . he must also be given credit for bringing out the troubled emotions in a man so well . the angst and the indecisiveness that he portrays with his eyes and expressions will actually touch your heart .
yes , thats why i had chosen them . honestly , when i thought of making the film , i had a different cast in mind . i wanted to make the film with rudra ( rudranil ghosh ) and a few others . but then i realised that the subject demanded a fresh cast as the audience should not know what to expect . would you believe it , i auditioned more than 200 youngsters from various colleges ! every evening i would sit in a south calcutta coffee shop and audition students . but i chose ridhima , gaurav , tanaji , indrasish and gourab despite the fact that they are not completely fresh . ridhima did a few films which i have not seen , tanaji did madly bangalee , the rest have done television . film ta dekhe shobai laden , laden kore chechachhe ( tanajis character in the film is called laden ) . i am glad that i took them . tanaji was my student at st xaviers . . . . making rang milanti has liberated me as a director . i had a lot of fun after the serious aarekti premer galpo .

rang milanti is the best among your three comedies ( jackpot and brakefail ) . do you think youve got better at comedy ?
yes , certainly . but rang milanti is not just another comedy . it has a deep message about love , divorce and separation . i think rang milanti is my best attempt at comedy because i have matured as a director and i made the film with a couldnt - care - less attitude . i took a lot of liberty as a director . hoi hoi kore chhobita baniyechhi . i love brakefail as a film , its very dear to me . but i realise that the format was very flat . jackpot is a very good film and it would have been a hit had i not succumbed to pressure . i should have made the film differently with fewer songs . see , every director has a gharana . my audience disowned jackpot because i had deceived them . the audience expects something unique from me , which is there in rang milanti .
no . i dont think a film works because of stars . its the story that is important . as a director , i have never really bothered about how my films will do at the box - office because i cant help it . so casting newcomers isnt a risk . theres something called a beginners luck . besides , rang milanti is not a slapstick comedy , you know , such comedies dont work in bengal . i have realised that the bengali audience loves to watch a paresh rawal or asrani in comic roles , no matter how repetitive their antics are , but when a kharaj mukherjee does that they call it bharamo . so its better to steer clear of that genre and do a comedy which is different and has other elements too .
most of the games the young cast play in the film are interesting , except one where the boys run on the streets to reach the girl . . .
basically , the games are played so that she ( ridhima ) can choose the right partner from the four boys . more than the games , what is interesting is that each game has a title borrowed from a film , like amanush , asukh , father , kapurush mahapurush . . . . thats very innovative . besides , there are a lot of fantasy elements in the film , like when saswata ( chatterjee ) poses as a psychiatrist . bastobe orom hoy naki , dhur ! i know that when kamalika ( ridhima ) is playing the 10 games , some among the audience are playing 22 mind games ! certain things in the film are not to be taken seriously .
separation and too many divorces . i thought of how a modern - day swayamvar would be like . thats how i developed the story .
but you seem to have a thing for games . even jackpot was based on a reality show .
well , rang milanti is more about an exercise . jackpot was about a reality show and about who won the game . here the game comes as a disguise . i am dealing with a serious issue in the guise of an exercise .
yes , i generally am because i am a very fussy director . i am satisfied with everyone in the film .
churni has mostly been seen in serious roles . what made you cast her as a commercial cinema heroine ?
churni is there in most of my films and i cant offer her similar roles always . her role is inspired by what i see around . its diagonally opposite to what churni is in real life . she is a very no - nonsense person , completely opposite to what saswata ( chatterjee ) is in real life , who loves cracking jokes and pulling ones leg . so , it made my job easy to cast them as husband and wife at loggerheads because in the film too they play very different people .
i think saswata is the most underrated actor in tollywood . i also think he is an indispensable actor . we havent given him his due yet . starting from the bong connection , where he dazzled in a bit role , to laptop ( yet - to - release ) where i have cast him in a very serious role . . . i mean you can just give him anything and he will excel . he is brilliant , be it in his comic timing or emotional scenes . he is the only actor who has successfully created a bridge between television and cinema .
• rang milanti premiere • kim ' s fashion disasters • ten years later . . . • the dulhan with a difference • handle with care ! • pretty priyanka • man booker shortlist • rituparna bares but . . .
prosenjit and rituparno ghosh are taking their celluloid partnership to the small screen with a mega serial for star jalsa . rituparno is writing the script for the yet - untitled serial , to be produced by prosenjits ideas creation production , which is likely to wind up in a year .
its dedicated to rabindranath tagore to mark his 150th birth anniversary . but its based neither on tagores life nor on any of his works . this is a unique concept . its a love story in the form of a musical and ritu ( rituparno ) has written an awesome script ,  said prosenjit .
rituparno has scripted about 40 episodes till now . i was interested in the subject , whether we should see tagore as only an institutionalised identity or be open to a fresh approach and contemporary interpretations . with this as the outline , i have written a story which has a wide range of human emotions and several references to tagore . to me its important that our approach to this subject , which is fit for an academic discourse , is non - judgmental ,  said rituparno .
and i dont feel as if i am writing a mega serial . it is turning out to be much like my film scripts . people who have heard the script are urging me to make a film on it ,  he added .
prosenjit ruled out any chances of making a special appearance in his home project — i am playing the producers part . ideas is a film and tv production house and i was waiting for the right opportunity to get into television ,  he said — and picked arjun , the younger son of actor sabyasachi chakraborty , to play the male lead .
newcomer mimi chakraborty is paired opposite arjun . the cast also features sabyasachis actress wife mithu and elder son gourab .
bumba mamu ( prosenjit ) approached me for the serial . . . its the lead role and i am willing to do it . i have heard the basic outline but dont know anything about my role yet ,  said arjun , a second - year mass communication student of st xaviers college . arjun had acted in a few tv serials as a child .
elder brother gourab , an ftii pune graduate who has edited a couple of documentaries , including one by his father , said : i too am not sure about my role but i am eager to take it up . i would love to do anything related to films .
for the soundtrack , the prosenjit - rituparno team has fallen back on debojyoti mishra , who had done the music for rituparnos chokher bali , raincoat and titli among others .
i am composing the title track and the background score . besides , there will be lots of tagore songs ( chosen by rituparno ) with a contemporary touch . music is the pivot of this serial and since the issue is looking at contemporary interpretations of tagore alongside the traditional , i am weaving in elements of jazz , blues and several other forms ,  said mishra .
the serial will be directed by joydip mukherjee , who has helmed bandhan and ekhane akash neel for star jalsa . the team is targeting a june - end telecast date .
