while watching the movie suburra , my first thought was that it bore a striking resemblance to a couple of other recent italian films .

being on netflix means a lot to me ,
 said film director sollima .
not only will my film be part of a selection of high - quality feature films and groundbreaking tv series of which i am a huge fan , but it will also have the opportunity to reach a wide international public .

rome – netflix has inked a deal to produce its first original italian series , the 10 - episode “suburra , ” about ties between mob and politics in contempo rome .

suburra is an enthralling story that will appeal to netflix members in italy and worldwide ,
said erik barmack , vp at netflix .
we are thrilled to partner with rai and cattleya and to be working with some of the best storytellers in italy to deliver not only their film , but also a series that will be among the best of television .
the saga that involves politics , the vatican , the mafia , corruption , money laundering , drugs and prostitution , will begin with a feature film directed by stefano sollima ( a . c . a . b . , gomorrah ) that’s slated for theatrical release in italy on october 14 . netflix will then debut the film the same day in the americas with italy following in may 2016 . the series will come the following year .
placido said netflix’s involvement encouraged key local partners like rai to board “suburra , ” and he added that rai’s acquisition of the series marked a milestone . “with ‘suburra , ’ rai will be paving the way for other public broadcasters in italy and encourage them to give tv creators and producers more freedom to deliver daring , thought - provoking series , ” said placido .
inszenatorisch top , mit abzügen in der b - note bzgl . dialogen und darstellern , macht suburra aber trotzdem jede menge richtig und auch durchaus spaß zu schauen . definitiv keine verschwendete zeit .
“gomorrah” casts a long shadow over this , and with the way this is so densely plotted across multiple main characters it’s hard not to feel like this was the premise for a tv season that got adapted to a feature film .
the suburra , a rough neighborhood of rome , is the scene of an ambitious real estate project . but , with the state , vatican and the mafia involved things are not what they seem .
i say unlikely because it ' s not the kind of film that is normally granted a sequel , and that was a development i certainly wasn ' t expecting . as much as i was initially delighted by the news , i ' m sure i wasn ' t the only one who also immediately put the brakes on getting too excited when it was announced that denis villeneuve wouldn ' t be directing soldado because he ' s busy making some science fiction film or something .
this film project was unique in its production . it was a combined italian - french effort , financed by rai and netflix . the distribution was also unusual , in that it simultaneously premiered in italian movie theaters and was made available for online streaming in the us and latin america on the same day . the movie version will be available on italian netflix in may 2016 , and netflix has also commissioned a 10 - part tv series based on the film to premiere globally in 2017 .
suburra means “under the city” . the centre of ancient rome was on palatine hill where the aristocracy had luxurious villas . down the hill was this ghetto called suburra full of poor people and an incredible amount of places where you can drink and have sex . the rich people would go down there to get drunk and have fun with whores . and it was also the place where they met to do dirty business .
the first italian production from netflix , led by ceo reed hastings , will be created by cattleya , the film and tv producer behind such tv hits as sky italia ' s gomorrah series , and romanzo criminale , in collaboration with italian public service broadcaster rai .
then , fairly quickly , we realize that this film might have more in common with the ugliness of camorra than the glam of the great beauty . throw in a corrupt cardinal hiding out in the vatican , and now it also recalls the godfather part iii .
cattleya has begun development of the series , with production planned to start in the second half of 2016 . suburra will premiere on netflix everywhere netflix is available . rai will air the series after the debut on netflix in italy .
production of the series is planned to start in the second half of 2016 with plans to premiere globally on netflix in 2017 . rai will air the “suburra” show on one of its generalist channels in italy after it goes out on netflix .

i had to look it up to refresh my memory , but this unusual act by the pope actually occurred in february of 2013 , about 14 months after berlusconi’s resignation . so while i can’t speak to their alleged connection , i can say that the two events were not contemporaneous , as suggested in the film .
the first italo production from netflix is being produced by cattleya , the prominent italo shingle behind internationally exported tv hits , including sky italia’s “gomorrah” and “romanzo criminale” ( “crime novel” ) skeins . interestingly , cattleya is producing “suburra” in collaboration with italian public service broadcaster rai .
rai is proud to partner with netflix , the internet tv leader , for the production of the suburra tv series ,
said rai director general antonio campo dall ' orto .
this collaboration demonstrates our new strategic direction to innovate and compete in italy and abroad . television is transforming . we need to stay on the forefront and redefine our role . the suburra series testifies to the strength of the growing italian production industry , from cinema to fiction , and its ability to be a player at the highest international level .
i don’t think that’s the most interesting part . i love the idea of making a cool , entertaining and gritty film in modern rome – of portraying the city in a different and darker way . so i think this was my first idea : to make a thriller but set it up in a real world with real baddies .
suburra is planned as a 10 - episode drama made in partnership with italy’s rai . while netflix has embarked on originals in france ( marseille ) , and elsewhere , this is the first time it’s moving into the space in italy . a worldwide debut is set for 2017 .
suburra , a rain - soaked hyper - stylised introduction to italian filmmaker stefano sollima , is resplendently neo - noir - a crime thriller that may initially begin a meretricious homage set to the backdrop of select songs by french electronic act m83 but ends having embedded itself into the flesh under your skin ; there it stays .
suburra trifft den ton eines fast schon intimen gangsterdramas auf den punkt , muss sich aber dann doch leider mit abzügen vor allem im dialog und den darstellern abfinden . manche dialoge wurden ihren teilweise steif agierenden darstellern doch sehr hölzern rübergebracht , so dass man teilweise aus dieser eigentlich faszinierenden welt wieder etwas rausgezogen wird . auch die laufzeit hätte gerne einen ticken kürzer sein können .
placido said he was hoping to work with netflix again in the future following “ suburra , ” for which he directed the first two episodes . “netflix is a game - changer in italy . they gave me a tremendous freedom to cast actors who are not big names – some were even unknown – as long as they fit the roles , ” said placido .

giancarlo de cataldo and carlo bonini , authors of the “suburra” expose which delved into the so - called “mafia capital” scandal that broke in 2014 boasted that the book , on which the series is based , is “a journey into the black heart of rome , uncovering and bringing to light many of the current scandals , well in advance of their making headlines in the international press . ”
if think your italian is pretty good , but want to sharpen your romanaccio , you only need to take lessons from the character manfredi ( played by adamo dionisi ) and his family of “ burini ” ( “ cafoni ” in italian ; or boorish / uncouth in english ) . this guy is the thug of the film , but he is also identified as the “gypsy , ” which i suppose implies that his brood is from eastern europe and not italy .
the name of the movie , suburra , refers to a neighborhood on the outskirts of ancient rome , which is the origin of our word “suburb . ” it is an evolution of the latin “sub - urba , ” as the language was moving towards the volgare . clusters of consonants like rb turned into rr ( or mn into mm , etc . ) , in a process known as “assimilazione e raddoppiamento . ” anyway…
stefano sollima’s brash and brutal movie is a melodrama of political corruption and gangster turf wars in rome – set satirically at the fraught moment of spiritual crisis when pope benedict xvi decided to abdicate . it’s a film that could conceivably have worked as well , or better , as a boxset binge on tv – indeed , sollima also directed the acclaimed mafia series gomorrah – but lays down the law confidently enough on the big screen : there’s a supermarket shootout and a getaway scene ( following a slaying in a spa ) that are handled with terrific élan .
not at all . from my point of view it’s a little bit a cliché . i think suburra is much more realistic in its portrayal of the mafia . a mafioso is not just a man who goes around speaking sicilian . it’s a business model where you don’t respect the law as part of the business model . in italy we call it the mafia but you have the same in an incredible amount of countries . they just call it something different .
stylistically , the film ' s influences are plain to see : martin scorsese , brian de palma , michael mann , to name but a few . like his peers , sollima displays a knack for refining material and balancing plotlines that would seem overbearing in lesser hands . there ' s almost a televisual feel pertained by the interweaving character encounters with scriptwriters stefano rulli and sandro petraglia ( adapting carlo bonini and giancarlo de cataldo ' s novel ) moving them around like chess pieces . in this way , there ' s even a scent of coen in the air .
qui c ' è qualcuno che tutte le sere va a dormire col blu - ray di heat sotto al cuscino . poi magari non è sollima e mi sembra che sia sollima perché sono io , but still . comunque , certo , il centro commerciale , per quanto bello , non vale figueroa , manca un po ' di forza emotiva nei personaggi e magari se si levavano un po ' di musica a mille , qualche metaforone e un paio dei centododici confronti a due al bar andava meglio , ma insomma , oh , avercene , in italia , film di genere del genere .
è simbolico e necessario che l ' unico cinema italiano bello di oggi parli di quanto sia brutta l ' italia di oggi . suburra parte dalla nostra inossidabile tradizione di cinema civile e vi innesta una cura estetizzante , lo esaspera in toni pop , chiaroscuri forti e zone d ' ombra come focus estetico e narrativo , trasferendo sullo scenario cinematografico , con immutata forza ed il giusto equilibrio , quelle dinamiche della serialità televisiva su cui nuove eccellenti maestranze tecniche ed artistiche stanno costruendo una possibile e auspicabile nuova identità cinematografica italiana .
the suburra quarter in ancient rome was the quarter populated by taverns and brothels , where noble senators met with criminals in secret to do business and make money . two thousand years later , not much seems to have changed in the italian capital , politics and criminality continue to do business and the real world is governed by laws drawn up by corrupt politicians , through brokers without scruples in the shadow of an ambivalent vatican . these were the findings of a recent judicial inquiry by the name of mafia capitale , which has now been brought to the big screen by
malavita , politica , vaticano . potere e corruzione . violenza , tanta violenza , unica soluzione ai problemi . riferimenti ( più o meno velati ) ad alcuni fatti realmente accaduti . come raccontare in italia tutto questo ? con un film di denuncia oppure attraverso una pallosissima fiction in sette puntate ? sbagliato . niente di meglio che farlo tramite il caro vecchio cinema di genere . quel cinema di genere di cui , insieme a qualche altro titolo , potrebbe rappresentare ( speriamo ) , la rinascita di cui parlavo anche in occasione di lo chiamavano jeeg robot . sollima realizza un noir moderno , un mondo torbido portato in scena con un taglio cool ; qualcuno direbbe sullo stile di gomorra ( la serie ) , io direi sullo stile di sollima visto che quella era in gran parte roba sua . …

pierfrancesco pavino plays filippo “pippo” malgradi , a crooked mp trying to get rome’s ostia waterfront turned into a vegas - style gamblers’ playground : pippo gets his gangster contacts to order a hit on a young hoodlum who had been trying to blackmail him over an underage prostitute who died in his hotel room . the resulting murder is a gruesome mess that involves a hatchet - faced mafioso called samurai ( claudio amendola ) who is brokering the southern clans’ money in the vegas project , and whose own contacts go all the way up to the vatican . this is straight - ahead mob action , a vision of crows pecking each other to death when they’re not feasting on the corpse of “bunga bunga” italy . it’s carried off with a great deal of flair .

rome , 2011 . mafiosi , churchmen and politicians thrash out covert plans to transform the city’s waterfront into a glittering vegas - like strip , but the accidental death of a prostitute sees it all spinning out of control .
the city that gave us la dolce vita provides an altogether more violent backdrop in stefano sollima’s edgy , often chilling follow - up to his tv spin - off of gomorrah . named after ancient rome ' s criminal underground and set over seven days leading up to an unexplained “apocalypse” in 2011 , it charts the corruption that’s eaten through italian society like rust in a flurry of explosive moments amid an endless , oppressive downpour . by comparison , se7en ’s incessant rain seems more like an april sprinkle .
stefano sollina elevates his crime thriller into a gripping parable embroidered with mystical touches .
the plot ' s catalyst is a politician with a thing for underage hookers ( rush ’s pierfrancesco favino ) . this deeply compromised man offers a suitably seedy conduit into rome’s corridors of powers , where lawmakers conspire with criminals to redevelop the city’s unspoilt seafront . the deal that stands to make them all millions soon threatens them all with disgrace – or worse – when a girl is killed .
a visual and kinetic filmmaker , sollima combines michael mann - like set pieces – a supermarket gun battle to make dale winton weep is one of the best of the year – with more of gomorrah ’s scathing social commentary to lacerate the italian political and criminal classes . unlike many mafia thrillers , these men are not held up as figures worthy of respect . when the merda hits the fan , they scurry like bugs under a freshly - lifted rock .
in other hands it could all still have been fodder for a middling crime thriller – 2013’s broken city tackled similar themes with a fraction of the verve – but sollina elevates it into a gripping parable embroidered with mystical touches ( its capo dei capi is a feared gangster called samurai ) and splashes of lurid violence . throw in a glacially cool m83 score and you have a mafia thriller of which even scorsese would be proud . the netflix ten - parter later this year should be well worth marking your diary for .
a stylish crime thriller that dissects italian society with a cool eye and an itchy trigger finger .
the character resting at the heart of this sprawling ensemble is amoral mp filippo malgradi ( pierfrancesco favino ) whose night of debauchery kickstarts a series of events that ricochet through rome involving abduction , blackmail and vicious canines that would make game of thrones villain ramsay bolton feel ashamed .
montage sequences showing concurrent events build to crescendos which force you to instinctively predict what ' s coming next . shunning this expectation , sollima instead throws in a gunshot here , a car accident there - as with life - when you least expect it ; this tactic will temporarily turn your seat into a sit - down travelator .
with the expectations of your audience is a brave ploy but one that pays off . having now steered both a tv series ( acclaimed italian mob drama gomorrah ) and a two - hour - plus crime epic , sollima ensures he fast tracks standalone sicario sequel soldado to the top of your most - anticipated list .
movies and tv shows are certified fresh with a steady tomatometer of 75 % or higher after a set amount of reviews ( 80 for wide - release movies , 40 for limited - release movies , 20 for tv shows ) , including 5 reviews from top critics .
ah , bella italia ! where men are men , politicians are corrupt , mafiosi are everywhere and women are either hookers or molls .
sollima interweaves gangsters , pimps , junkies and scary dogs with pungent echoes of venal ancient rome .
an effective thriller structured from a soft ensemble story . [ full review in spanish ]
an ensemble thriller of epic dimensions reminiscent of greek tragedy . [ full review in spanish ]
a sprawl of beautifully cast characters - - a weasly pimp ( germano ) here , a junkie moll ( scarano ) there - - and their many intersections are deftly juggled , thanks to patrizio morane ' s darting cuts .
if you ' re a thriller fan don ' t let the subtitles put you off this roman gem .
a movie - length prequel to netflix ' s upcoming rome - set gangster series .
all about corrupt politicians & the mafia . also something about the pope which i didn ' t get .
it ' s all jolly plush , with enough sex & violence to get an 18 certificate .
i left the screening a bit confused , but feel i have to give it the benefit of the doubt ( 3 stars ) , as i feel i may not have paid enough attention .

, at a time when rome has just seen the resignation of its mayor , and is being plagued by ungovernability and the chaos of the upcoming jubilee .
the portrait of a humanity driven by money and extreme ambition , in which the law of the strongest prevails and there are no positive heroes , spares no one , between the halls of parliament , rooms of the vatican , luxury hotels , flashy villas , run - down suburbs , fierce executions , drugs , parties , and protests . there’s a lot going on in
directed by michele placido ten years ago , and which is proving to be highly exportable .

ildikó enyedi , michel franco , rebecca hall , anna mouglalis , jasmine trinca , edgar wright and yonfan will flank annette bening on the main jury . the orizzonti jury will be chaired by gianni amelio
five minutes in , we feel like going to see stefano sollima’s version of la grande bellezza ; a loud party at a lush villa where the rich and famous are drinking and dancing and kissing in a neon - light fantasy . another glimpse at the “one - percent” of roman society .
but no , it’s entirely its own movie , and a damn good one .
this zone was a swampy area between the viminal and esquiline hills . today this neighborhood could hardly be more central , located near the cavour metro stop , so it’s difficult to imagine it as the “the suburbs” back then .
this is where the politicians and the wealthy class would go “slumming” through the murky streets to access their unspoken vices , and consort with criminal elements to do their dirty work . the shadowy world of thieves and prostitutes and assassins for hire .
fast forward to 2011 and not much has changed in the eternal city according to sollima , except that the burbs now extend further out , all the way to the beach town of ostia .
the plot is very loosely framed around actual events that occurred during early november of ’11 , when berlusconi stepped down from his position as prime minister of italy under enormous public pressure from both within the country , and from the european union . so there is s ome factual basis for the story , although it is mostly fiction . probably . maybe . well , you decide .
there is also this allusion to the apocalypse , and a torrential rainstorm that lasts throughout the movie—seven days and seven nights , to be precise . to bolster this claim , the filmmakers also try to add the abdication of pope benedict as a further omen that announces the end - of - days scenario .
it’s wrong to think that italy is in a severe financial crisis . consumer spending hasn’t decreased at all .
this is a quote from one of the main characters , senator filippo malgradi , played by pierfrancesco favino . but it also smacks of a real soundbite from berlusconi around this time who infamously said , “what crisis ? i look around rome and all the restaurants are full ! ”
malgradi is an upper - level politician who moves seamlessly between the two lives he leads : the life he presents to the world as a family man and respected politician ; and his other persona , which enjoys smoking crack cocaine while in the company of naked women who are young enough to be his daughters .
there’s one scene where he’s standing butt - naked on a third - floor balcony above piazza del popolo in the middle of this biblical deluge , pissing down on the street below . what to make of that , i wonder ?
i thought either the director was saying , “look ! these politicians , at their core , are just as brutti as the street criminals . ” or else he was animating the metaphor of , “politicians are always pissing on us while trying to convince us that it’s raining . ”
malgradi is also well - acquainted with some unsavory elements in the mafia , including a character known as the “the samurai , ” played by claudio amendola . no big surprise here , as this also mirrors real - world accusations of high - ranking members of italian parliament being deeply intertwined with the malavita . inevitably , the two worlds collide , launching the story into a descending spiral of chaos where every little turn leads to a greater tragedy . each character is caught up in his or her own self - made tempest with no positive outcomes in sight .
the plot is intricate and complex , but not difficult to follow . the director did a great job of keeping the overlapping storylines clear and tight inside the 2 hour running time . ( it’s technically 2 hours and 15 minutes , but there are at least 15 minutes of credits at the end , just so you know . )
i wonder if that was a conscious choice by the writer / director because conversely , the italian gangster , “the samurai , ” is portrayed as having excellent manners and better taste in clothes . hmm…
does everybody get their just desserts in the end ? well , you’ll have to watch and decide for yourself . or you can wait until the tv series premieres and invite these characters into your suburban home on a weekly basis . you’ll never think of life in the suburbs the same way again .
living in the caput mundi and trying to decipher italian culture for the english speaking world .
i’m reading the book right now . impressive the analogies with the enquiries on corruption in rome… the book “romanzo criminale” by the same author had the same story : book , movie , tv series . but i’m sure that this new one on netflix will achieve much more .
hi paola , and thanks for you comments . yes , i’m looking forward to the netflix series , too . but i’m always glad when italian films / books find an international audience . with all of the creative talent in italy , it’s a shame that it doesn’t happen more often .
it’s great to see foreign films getting the exposure they deserve through netflix . i enjoyed it thoroughly , well - acted , well - casted , a modern - day “godfather” . i’m impressed and looking forward to the series . outstanding musical score .
thanks michael , and i agree with you on all points . i’m looking forward to seeing the series , too .
since having our little one , my husband and i have only been to the cinema once ( we used to go all the time ) but you’ve convinced me that i should get the nonni to babysit one evening soon so we can go and see this . hmmm , the ugliness of gomorrah meets glam of the great beauty , sounds gripping…
it’s good . not easy to watch–i felt myself cringing the whole time because it all seems so plausible . let me know what you think once you’ve seen it !

the movie , based on the book by giancarlo de cataldo and carlo bonini , tells the story of a grueling battle over a seaside town outside of rome which is to be developed into a gambling paradise . the story involves a corrupt member of parliament , filippo malgradi ( pierfrancesco favino ) ; number 8 ( alessandro borghi ) , the head of a powerful family that runs the territory ; and sebastiano ( elio germano ) , a young event organizer . it also involves corrupt religious leaders and rival mafiosi , including the samurai ( claudio amendola ) who represents the most feared faction of roman organized crime . the plot reveals an endemic system of corruption and rampant illegality on an international scale .

the second ways is if you are italian . i don ' t know if you heard about it , but not even a week ago the mayor of rome , ignazio marino resigned before the end of his mandate . during his government a lot of things happened : all the filth and the depravity which infected rome for years surfaced . an actual shadow governing body , which took the city by dint of threats and corruption . the main puppeteer was massimo carminati , founding member of the criminal organization called banda della magliana , and , after the dismissal of it , master artifex of…
stefano sollima ' s name has been thrust into the spotlight over the last few months after it was announced that he would be helming the unlikely sequel to sicario .
stefano sollima ' s hugely ambitious crime thriller surveys the great institutions of italy - the catholic church , the government , big business - and connects them through italy ' s most infamous enterprise , organised crime . two mob families have put their usual conflicts on the back burner in anticipation of a favoured crooked politician gifting their district with a new casino . the scheme collapses due to a mix of sheer bad luck , simmering resentments and global politics , the latter represented by an ominous countdown to the seismic event not even the politicians seem to know is coming - the resignation of silvio berlusconi .
stefano sollima versteht es wie auch schon bei
gomorrha
vor allem die kleinen dinge einer handlung gekonnt umzusetzen . so weiß dieses kleine drama im mafiamillieu insbesondere durch seine menschlichkeit , die nähe zu den figuren und das äußerst authentische drumherum zu begeistern , ohne dabei jemals in kitsch oder übertriebene gewalt abzudriften .
stefan sollima ' s multi - layered journey through the crime industry of modern rome has the kind of production standards we ' d normally see from a high - end hollywood offering , and was clearly the calling card that landed sollima the sicario sequel , but despite its gripping though none - too - original narrative , it all has a slightly odd sheen .
solid crime drama . did drag in some parts , and felt like there was a little too much going on in it ' s story , but overall i enjoyed it ! can ' t wait to see what this director does with sicario 2 .
an intense and sprawling mafioso epic . too sprawling . . . but damn it looks good .
toller mafiafilm aus italien . hat mich total gefesselt dazu noch der soundtrack von m83 ( das album hatte ich schon ) das war natürlich ein flash für sich mit diesen bildern und der stimmung . dann waren die darsteller echt gut gewählt , bekannt war mir jetzt keiner aber die hatten ihre rollen perfekt gespielt .
a collection of my favorite foreign films , including lots of underrated / unknown titles worth checking out . updated monthly . the list is…
it’s brilliantly done – slick , sexy , dark – but that’s not the only reason . it was also the talk of the town because the plot is painfully close to the bone .
all the action takes place in a single week in rain - soaked rome . pierfrancesco favino plays filippo “pippo” malgradi , a crooked mp who wants to turn rome’s ostia waterfront into an italian las vegas . after accidentally killing an underage prostitute , he finds himself being blackmailed and asks a gangster pal to bump off the blackmailer , inadvertently sparking brutal turf wars .
netflix is already making a spin - off series , while director stefano sollima has been lined up to direct the sequel to the 2015 hit sicario . we asked him whether italian politicians really do work hand in glove with gangsters , and whether he’s ever met a mafioso…
they were absolutely upset by it of course . what it’s about is a really delicate problem for us so we had an incredible amount of discussion on the topics of the movie .
close . the day before our theatrical release in italy , the major of rome dismissed himself because of a huge scandal called “mafia capitale” involving money and the underworld . it’s almost the same as we portrayed in the movie .
i was born and raised in rome . i think this was one of the most interesting parts for me : to portray the darkest side of the eternal city . rome is much more complex than its image , than the touristy side .
your acclaimed tv series gomorrah was about organised crime in naples . how influenced are you by the godfather ?
probably it’s number eight because he’s the only one who’s moved by deep feeling : by the dream he has to change his city and the love he has for his fiancé . i never judge my characters . i love them all . what i try to do in the movie is make the character like he is in reality . in reality , you never have just black and white . you have an incredible amount of grey .
no , just because of schedule issues . it’ll be the first original netflix production in italian . i think they will keep just two of the same characters but i’m not sure because i’m not involved at all .
yes , although i haven’t signed yet . the idea of the producer is to make three standalone movies in the same world with two of the same characters : benicio del toro and josh brolin as alejandro and matt . so it will not be a direct sequel of sicario . i think it’s cool and original .

actor - writer - director michele placido is exploring the true story of a corrupt cardinal for a series he’s developing called “bad bankers . ”
placido said “bad bankers” will revolve around monsignor marcinkus , an american archbishop who presided over the vatican bank from 1971 to 1989 . marcinkus was embroiled in the notorious bank crash of banco ambrosiano , which led to the 1982 suicide of its chairman , roberto calvi .
“what marcinkus did caused serious problems in italy – he was laundering mafia money and invested it in drugs and guns – but he was never prosecuted because he was a citizen of the vatican , ” said placido , adding that marcinkus was also close to u . s . president richard m . nixon . marcinkus previously served as inspiration for the character of archbishop gilday in francis ford coppola’s “the godfather , part iii . ”
“it was the first time in my career that i was given carte blanche . there is so much self - censorship going in the tv production because of the weight of catholicism . we can’t tell stories so freely when we work with a public broadcaster , ” said placido .
the actor - director said he was first approached by netflix because “they liked ‘vallanzasca , ' ” which he directed in 2011 .

thambi vettothi sundaram is a tamil film directed by v . c . vadivudaiyan . it stars karan and anjali in the lead . the film received negative reviews and became a flop . source : wikipedia
it is the true story of vettothi sundaram and i play the title role . this is the first true story that i am doing . the events that happened in vettothi sundaram ' s life have been chronicled . a few cinematic liberties have been added .
thambi vettothi sundaram movie deals with an off - beat subject based on a true story happened in kanyakumari . it is based on the life of a person in a place that is on the tamilnadu - kerala border .
overall , thambi vettothi sundaram is a film that is loyal to its story ; there are absolutely no diversions . but , is that enough for a good viewing experience ? the grim and serious nature gets to you after a while and the happenings one after the other seem to lose sheen and credibility as we go deeper into the film . thambi vettothi sundaram could have been much better , only if it had been packaged a bit more cleverly .
vadivudayaiyan has made it very melodramatic and highly sentimental especially in the climax . his characterisation of lead actors is half baked . on the whole thambi vettothi sundaram is an overdose of emotions , dreary and slow moving . ( more )
i am involved in three films now ( kangavel kaakka , kanda and thambi vettothi sundaram ) and i am extremely satisfied and confident about them . my energy levels are peeking and i am happy that i am on the right track .
a soft - spoken upright youth is forced to go the wrong way , he turns robinhood and goes a gun blazing for a cause . this has formed the crux of many films in the past . no different is ' thambi vettothi sundaram ' .
when the film was announced , my cell phone did not stop ringing . i was constantly being called to find out about the title . this story is about events that happen in marthandam , thakkalai in kanyakumari district . hero’s name is sundaram and he is from vettothipuram which is the name of a town in kumari district . the usual practice is to add thambi to the names and that’s how the name thambi vettothi sundaram was born .
thambi vettothi sundaram by vadivudaiyan is said to be based on a real incident that took place in kanyakumari district . karan plays the lead role ably supported by anjali , saravanan , kadhal dhandapani , kanja karuppu among others . the movie has created quite a sensation before its release . let us see if it has lived up to the expectation .

thambi vettothi sundaram , a story that has been publicized as one that reflects the true picture of the tamil nadu - kerala border made it to theatres on that fancy date 11 - 11 - 11 . it has been a while since we saw karan on screen , same holds true for saravanan who is sparsely seen after his paruthiveeran heroics . not surprisingly , the most popular face in contemporary months in this film is anjali ; just goes to show the kind of performances she has turned in over her past few films .
karan plays sundaram , a post - graduate turned gangster . anjali , saravanan , kadhal dhandapani and ganja karuppu are also in the cast . music is by vidyasagar .
when things go well and sundaram plans to marry lourdes , all hell breaks loose . a revenge game results in bloodshed . does he emerge triumphant forms the crux .
thanks to his friend salai ( saravanan ) , who is into illegal trade , he overcomes dejection . there is a romantic tale when sundaram comes acros s lourdu mary ( anjali ) , daughter of a gangster , who is a dreaded gangster . turn of events leaves sundaram to get involved in illicit arrack trade and he becomes a middleman helping gangster smuggle goods . when things go well and sundaram plans to marry lourdu , all hell breaks loose . a revenge game results in bloodshed and a gore ending .
kanyakumari is boasted as the district with maximum number of literates in tamilnadu . sadly it is the place where crime rate is high reveals a statistic . perhaps this has prompted director vadivudayan to try his hand at exploring the reasons behind it . he has touched upon on the real - life story of a graduate - turned - gangster vettothi sundaram , who hailed from the district . sundaram ( karan ) , a post - graduate , wants to end up with a government job . but the corrupt officials play spoilsport on his dreams .
sundaram ( karan ) is hard working guy with a brilliant academic career . he is looking for a government job but always loses out due to prevailing nepotism and corruption in selection of candidates .
his best friend is sala ( saravanan ) , who is a middleman for various illegal deals . sundaram falls in love with the beautiful college girl lourd mary ( anjali ) , daughter of a notorious smuggler and dealer of illicit liquor .
the film is shot in kanyakumari district of tamil nadu where the main livelihood is inter - state smuggling . so people are either jobless or are smugglers . sundaram is a good hearted small time con man who is looking for a government job , more specifically a teachers job but circumstances force him to take the smuggling . lourdes mary is the daughter of the most dreaded smuggler , siluvai , who dares to fall in love with sundaram . then there is ambrose , a cop seeking revenge against siluvai .
the film is shot in kanyakumari district of tamil nadu where the main livelihood is inter - state smuggling . so people are either jobless or are smugglers . sundaram is a good hearted small time con man who is looking for a government job , more specifically a teachers job but circumstances force him to take the smuggling . lourde . . .
sundaram ( karan ) dreams of landing in a government job . but corrupt officials come in between his goal . he loses a chance to achieve his desire . thanks to his friend salai ( saravanan ) , salai emerges a gangster but with a golden heart . in the meantime , he meets lourdes mary ( anjali ) , daughter of another gangster . she studies in a local college .
starring : karan , anjali , saravanan direction : v . c . vadivudayan music : vidyasagar production : senthilkumar rating : review : consta . . .
the film has gone out of its way to glorify the lead character and made him look like a sort of do - gooder , who was forced by circumstances to do bad things against the law . a sense of déjà vu , as films in the same genre are dime a dozen .
poliyur is a village that lies on the border area between tamil nadu and kerala in southern part of the state in kanyakumari district . the main occupation of the people in this area seems to be brewing and smuggling of illicit liquor to neighbouring kerala .
there are many cartels involved in it who are bitter enemies and also kill each other to gain supremacy in the flourishing trade .
vadivudayaiyan has made it very melodramatic and highly sentimental especially in the climax . his characterisation of lead actors is half baked . there are too many censor cuts and muting , which leaves the audiences confused . karan has delivered a matured performance ; anjali does her aggressive girl act . it is saravanan who steals the show in the films very few lighter moments . the music of vidyasagar is one of the silver linings in the film .
the dialogues and the dialect could have been taken care of in a much better way . after having been publicised as a tamil nadu - kerala border story , one does expect a malayalam - tamil hybrid to come through in the dialogues ; that does not happen . the malayalam slang is limited to one or two words which often open sentences , afterwards , it is all normal tamil which you would hear anywhere in the state . it is like using the phrase ‘yelle’ in every sentence to masquerade normal tamil as the tirunelveli dialect .

karan who made an impressive debut in nammavar has come a long way . after a brief sabbatical , he made a re - entry into filmdom as hero in kokki from where his journey is progressing at a steady pace . karan in conversation with urltoken
i consider two things in my life to be turning points . the entry that kamal sir gave me in nammavar . he called it as ‘periya pravesam’ which is absolutely true . no one could have got a better entry . i think i am the first person to have gotten the opportunity and luck . with just one day after the release of the film , i received the recognition that one gets after doing ten films . nammavar gave me a lot of confidence . i have done close to 68 films after nammavar . the second turning point is my re - entry into films as hero in kokki which was a sensational movie . people had not expected to see such a film in those days and the film was well appreciated . after kokki i did karuppusamy kuthagaidaarar , thee nagar , kaathavaraayan and malayan which received appreciations from different types of people .
when people hear the names of my films the first thing they ask is ‘where do you pick such titles ? ’ but i feel when the story and plot are different , everything about the film will be different .
kanagavel kaakka is such a relevant title . the name of hero is kanagavel . now i think you will be able to get the feel of the content . the character of the hero is portrayed in a very powerful manner . i would like to discuss the characterization of the film but cannot do it till the release of the film as per the requests of the producer and director . you may have met such a character in your life but i feel such a person has not been portrayed in films till now . in that fashion , kanagavel will be unique .
haripriya , a famous heroine from sandalwood is being introduced as my on screen pair . kota sreenivasa rao who acted with me in kokki will also feature in this film . i don’t have to talk about him ; he has proved himself in saami and many other films . sampath is a lawyer in the film and i am sure this film will render a different color to him . he has done a superb job . then there is adithya as a police officer .
i see director kavin bala’s brilliance in kanagavel kaakka . i am very confident that he will turn into a fantastic director . you will realize my word when you see the film . when a right story and scenario along with perfect casting happens , 75 % of the work is completed . director kavin bala has chosen the right technicians .
there is extraordinary music scored by vijay antony in kanagavel kaakka and he is a strong pillar to this film . re - recording tracks will speak a lot about his intelligence . he has done many light hearted films but this film will be very different from his earlier works . vijay antony is the latest music sensation .
lyrics are written by snehan which have turned out very well . nellai jeyantha has also written lyrics . vijay antony has also written a song ‘minsarame minsarame’ .
as actors we were all waiting to go to the sets every day . all things that are required for a successful film have been happening to kanagavel kaakka right from the beginning and there is huge expectation for this film . people who have watched it at post production stage have appreciated it . but i am like a student who is awaiting results after writing his exams . we are giving the film to people who will give our verdict . i am waiting for the results and at the same time i trust that people would come to me and say , “karan , we did not expect such a film from you . ” i am waiting to hear those words .
recently a journalist friend approached me and said that now that i have become a hero , i would have earned much on the financial front . i seconded his thoughts and said , “i have earned much but not money but only fans . when i earn money , it gets spent . but fans are not like that . fans are only incoming and not outgoing” . this is a heartfelt truth which i have said in many interviews . in film industry , many people would have become hero with diverse ideas and perspectives . but i always believe that when we give good products , fans will never let us down . this belief only drives me forward and i became a hero relying on this fact .
kanda will hit the screens after kanagavel kaakka and kanda is being produced for vp films by kalpana palanivel . he is a very good producer who has given many successful films . babu k viswanath is the debut director .
till now , i have done many films for first time directors . people have asked me why i only work with new directors . but they are the ones who approach me with scripts . what i look for is a simple and clear plot with some aspect being different and fresh . most of the new directors have toiled in the industry for 12 - 13 years and have acquired much knowledge and experience . hence they would want to use all that they have learnt in the first film and would be keen to prove themselves . in tamil film industry , best films are rendered by debut directors . when such directors come with so much of zeal and potential , there is nothing wrong in joining hands and working with them .
working is much easier and the atmosphere is friendly . it is a refreshing experience for me . they look at me in a completely different angle which i myself have not thought about . director kavin bala is also a newcomer who has worked with saran and hari and has gained valuable experience . he is also a poet . of course i also would like to work under established directors and some of them have even been discussing things with me . when the right opportunity knocks , i would like to do it in the right manner . i am sure god will give me such an opportunity too .
mithra from kerala is my heroine in kanda . rajesh features in a key role .
the film is about a school teacher and his student . in the earlier generation students used to go to school by walk for many miles or cross the river and through many such difficult modes . in the present days , i am not sure if some kind of personal relationship exists between students and teachers . nevertheless , for a student , there will be at least one teacher who will be close to his / her heart . this holds good for all . there was such a teacher in kanda’s life . that’s what the story is all about . the relationship between kanda and the teacher forms the crux of the storyline . the film talks about what the teacher did to kanda and what he did to the teacher in return when he grew up . the plot occurred very new to me and i am quite satisfied with it . rajesh is the teacher who has all the qualities to be a good teacher . he is also a good actor . it will be a good film for him .
babu k viswanath . he has written many stories . when he narrated the story to me , he did it quite briskly . we can decide on some stories instantly and some others make you think because you wonder whether the story would be suitable for you . but i decided on kanda immediately . i felt the spark inside me .
vadivudayan is the director . i don’t intend talking about him now because everyone will be doing that once the film is released . a brilliant director ! though this is his 2nd film , he is like a newcomer . he impresses me in every thing .
after these films , i am yet to decide my course . once i decide , i would definitely share with my fans about the details of my projects . i was not acting for three years and my fans know about that also . when kokki was released , they appreciated my work . i generally like to share about what i do with people .
every film that we work , it has been done with the hope that it would be liked by the audience . the recent five films of mine were different from each other . this was indicated to me by my fan cum friend from abroad who saw my films . he was the one who told me that i give a long interval between my films . but i alone cannot take the onus for this . film making is a difficult task which involves many people . my agenda in 2010 is to release a film once in three months . earlier , i was involved in only one film at a time . now i am planning to work in two films simultaneously . of course , it would be a strain . but it is fine with me . this is my way of ensuring that there is no big gap between successive films . i also feel that quality is more important than quantity . i am trying to combine the two and render good results .
i have not done villain roles in many mainstream films . i have never acted as a villain with typical cinematic characteristic traits . i have done roles in villain’s moods . i have not killed or raped which are quite difficult for me . i will see to it that there is some semblance of reality when it comes to portraying me as villain . i don’t believe in glorifying negativity . but in nammavar , it is the life of a
student and the film gave me a huge identity . my character would have been justified in the film and it was not projected as a villain . but the films that i did as villain had a better reach . by god ' s grace , i have done a variety of roles in films like gokulathil seethai , kaadal kottai , kannedire thondrinal , kaalamellam kaadal vaazhga which helped me get a place in the audience ' s heart that paved way for me to act as hero .
i had created the gap of few years just before kokki happened . i wanted some time before transforming from villain to hero . i needed breathing time . i was working in 16 - 17 films a year in many languages and used to continuously shoot , sometimes even skipping my food . i only wanted to stand in front of the camera .
that’s all . nothing else crossed my mind . this took a toll on my health . that ' s when i decided to take a break and re - worked on my entire persona after which i did kokki . when i looked at myself on screen in kokki , i was surprised . i missed 47 films in the two and a half year gap . my friends in the industry were very angry with me for this . at some point in life , everybody would be forced to decide for themselves and i did the same . but it was a good decision . i take things as it comes and i have immense faith in god . i am certain that god will guide me in the right direction .
people wonder how i get such a variety of scripts . the scripts come in search of me . and i choose the ones which would suit me . when i choose a script , i see to it that there is some difference from my earlier film . i don’t want things to be repeated . of course there are some constants which cannot be avoided in mainstream films . there should be some larger than life images and scenes in films . then only audience will accept the film . if there is 60 % - 70 % translation of the story narrated to the visual medium , i consider it as good .
i choose my script . i don’t believe in handling this responsibility to anyone . once i accept a role , perhaps , i can seek suggestion to improvise the character but not before that .
people ask me what is my place in the industry . i stay in the heart of my fans which i value a lot . i want to retain this place and that is very important to me . i am called the minimum guarantee hero . i am happy to hear it .
apparently , the unit faced some problems from a few people while shooting in nagercoil earlier .
finally after the completion of the film and after it has got a certificate from the censors . the movie is embroiled in controversy . a particular segment from nagercoil has sent a legal notice to the producer and a copy to the producers council , asking them not to release the film .
they say that the movie has been shot to defame and hurt certain people in the kanyakumari district and hence they would like to see the film first and give an approval before its release .
karan clarified , “the film is based on a real life character but it’s not our aim to hurt anyone at all . ”
now it’s up to the producers council to give their judgment on the matter .
someone necessarily help to make critically articles i’d state . this is the first time i frequented your web page and up to now ? i amazed with the research you made to make this particular put up amazing . magnificent task !

the movie had promised a lot during its pre - release . does it live up to all hype ? no is the answer , as what begins as an entertainer ends up as an emotional pot - boiler . however , director vadivudayan has laced the script with some interesting moments , while narrating the life of a gangster who lived in kanyakumari district .
as usual karan has tried his best to keep things going with his matured performance . his body language and dialogue delivery deserve kudos . anjali ' s performance is worth a mention as she simply steals the show . saravanan impresses and reminds one of ' paruithiveeran ' chitappu at places .
the highlights of the movie are the melodious numbers by vidyasagar . what begins as a high - voltage action film fizzles out to end as an emotional drama . but still , vadivudayan can be complimented for an honest attempt .

there were enough protests from a few outfits in kaniyakumari over the movie’s release . with all dust settled down , the movie made its way to theatres . sadly , the movie that promised a lot fizzles out to an emotional pot - boiler losing track as it progresses . the movie has been told in a lackluster manner and disappoints us despite having a potential theme to present a neat film .
when you chose to make a movie on a character that has really lived you must be aware that there would be no suspense element on what happened to the man . so your narrative and depiction of the drama called life should be very sharp and engaging otherwise viewers would find it boring . director vadivudiyan has completely missed the knack of bring the life on screen . he has restored to melodrama and missed the sharpness and speed .
karan and anjali live up the proceedings with their performance . both have given their best and the romance between them works out well . that the script has marred the impact of such performances is altogether a different matter .
saravanan is adequate as salai while the rest of the cast are ok . kanja karuppu’ s efforts to make us laugh fail to click .
the highlight of the movie is cool music by vidyasagar . the melody man has come out with a soothing music .
had vadivudayan downplayed emotions and melodrama and increased pace , it could have been an interesting fare .

kolaikaaraa makes up for that utterly jaded and abused stock rhythm by framing a mesmerizing tune in gowrimanohari ; this is typical vidyasagar - style masterly melody . netru illai illai ups the ante beautifully ! why wouldn’t it ? in vidyasagar’s capable hands , we get yet another mayamalava gowlai melody orchestrated to perfection ! the item number hey karuppa paraendaa is a surprisingly spunky number ; kudos to suchitra’s superb singing ! karuvarai karuvarai is the only odd one out…using stock everything – tune and backgrounds , even though palakkad sriram does sing it with all his heart ! the melody master never disappoints and this soundtrack is no exception !
my knowledge is pitiably bad too . that’s why i have added 2 songs for comparison in the ‘keywords’ section 😉 hoping i’m right in naming the ragas…if not , what’s there…i learn and evolve 🙂
karthik , do you think kolaikaara sounds some what same as moolipattum from the malayalam movie makeup man…which had music by vidyasagar too… . i love both the songs…but just thought if there was any similarity…between the two songs…did u notice anything ?
