Mr. Right is a 2009 British film directed by David Morris and Jacqui Morris. The jointly- made gay- themed film is the debut for both directors. <SEP> Bhagam Bhag is a 2006 Indian comedy thriller film. It released on 22 December 2006. The story borrows plot points from Siddique- Lal's 1995 Malayalam film" Mannar Mathai Speaking" which was based on" Vertigo" and certain sub-plots from Sathyan Anthikkad's" Nadodikkattu". The climax sequence of the film is borrowed from Stanley Kramer's" It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"( 1963) and the plot- twist climax was borrowed from the Marathi thriller" Bindhaast" which earlier remade in Tamil as" Snegithiye" and in Malayalam as" Raakilipattu" by Priyadarshan. The film is directed by Priyadarshan, starring an ensemble cast of Akshay Kumar, Govinda, Paresh Rawal, Lara Dutta, Rajpal Yadav, Jackie Shroff, Arbaaz Khan, Shakti Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, Razak Khan, Sharat Saxena and Asrani while Tanushree Dutta makes a special appearance. <SEP> He was born in Constantinople( now Istanbul, Turkey), to Cappadocian Greek parents. After attending Williams College and then the Yale School of Drama, he acted professionally for eight years, later joining the Group Theatre in 1932, and co-founded the Actors Studio in 1947. With Robert Lewis and Cheryl Crawford, his actors' studio introduced" Method Acting" under the direction of Lee Strasberg. Kazan acted in a few films, including" City for Conquest"( 1940). Noted for drawing out the best dramatic performances from his actors, he directed 21 actors to Oscar nominations, resulting in nine wins. He directed a string of successful films, including" A Streetcar Named Desire"( 1951)," On the Waterfront"( 1954), and" East of Eden"( 1955). During his career, he won two Oscars as Best Director, three Tony Awards, and four Golden Globes. He also received an Honorary Oscar. His films were concerned with personal or social issues of special concern to him. Kazan writes," I do n't move unless I have some empathy with the basic theme." His first such" issue" film was" Gentleman's Agreement"( 1947), with Gregory Peck, which dealt with anti-Semitism in America. It received 8 Oscar nominations and 3 wins, including Kazan's first for Best Director. It was followed by" Pinky", one of the first films in mainstream Hollywood to address racial prejudice against African Americans. In 1954, he directed" On the Waterfront", a film about union corruption on the New York harbor waterfront. Elia Kazan( born Elias Kazantzoglou; September 7, 1909 – September 28, 2003) was a Greek- American director, producer, writer and actor, described by" The New York Times" as" one of the most honored and influential directors in Broadway and Hollywood history". " A Streetcar Named Desire"( 1951), an adaptation of the stage play which he had also directed, received 12 Oscar nominations, winning 4, and was Marlon Brando's breakthrough role. In 1955, he directed John Steinbeck's" East of Eden", which introduced James Dean to movie audiences. A turning point in Kazan's career came with his testimony as a witness before the House Committee on Un- American Activities in 1952 at the time of the Hollywood blacklist, which brought him strong negative reactions from many liberal friends and colleagues. His testimony helped end the careers of former acting colleagues Morris Carnovsky and Art Smith, along with the work of playwright Clifford Odets. The two men had made a pact to name each other in front of the committee. Kazan later justified his act by saying he took" only the more tolerable of two alternatives that were either way painful and wrong." Nearly a half- century later, his anti-Communist testimony continued to cause controversy. When Kazan was awarded an honorary Oscar in 1999, dozens of actors chose not to applaud as 250 demonstrators picketed the event. Kazan influenced the films of the 1950s and 1960s with his provocative, issue- driven subjects. Director Stanley Kubrick called him," without question, the best director we have in America,[ and] capable of performing miracles with the actors he uses." Film author Ian Freer concludes that even" if his achievements are tainted by political controversy, the debt Hollywood —and actors everywhere—owes him is enormous." In 2010, Martin Scorsese co- directed the documentary film" A Letter to Elia" as a personal tribute to Kazan. <SEP> Gentleman's Agreement is a 1947 American drama film based on Laura Z. Hobson's best- selling novel of the same name. It was nominated for eight Oscars and won three: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actress( Celeste Holm), and Best Director( Elia Kazan). It concerns a journalist( played by Gregory Peck) who poses as a Jew to research an exposé on the widespread distrust and dislike of Jews in New York City and the affluent communities of New Canaan, Connecticut and Darien, Connecticut. The movie was controversial in its day, as was a similar film on the same subject," Crossfire", which was released the same year( though that film was originally a story about homophobia, later changed to anti-Semitism). In 2017, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being" culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". It was released on DVD as part of the 20th Century Fox Studio Classics collection. <SEP> In a career spanning over three decades, he has directed more than 95 films in various Indian languages, predominantly in Malayalam and Hindi, while also having done six films in Tamil and two in Telugu.
