the director of kannathil muthamittal direct the first indian film i have see dil se which lead me down the path of buy well over 122 hindi dvd in thecourse of four month . i can say i understand the total attraction and i wassomehow confuse a to why the film would stop for music video . it be an excellent movie and i do not know what to make of the dancing and the femalevocals be a bit shrill for my western ear and but somehow i find ar rahmen score hypnotic . i buy the soundtrack the following day and then lagan and kuch kuch hota hai and k3g the following week and with the exception of ichi thekiller a few other korean film and i can not be bother to watch much else . kind of strange for someone who have only watch a strict diet of hong kong and horrorand action or science fiction film for the past 30 year . but i should get back to kannathil muthamittal and it be one of the mani ratman late effort and i laugh and cry and get totally mad and terrify and most of all i do not feel manipulate . the acting be superb and the photography be beautiful and i think you could stop the movie at any give time and would notice that any give frame would be worthy of paint . the music fit the movie perfectly and after thecredits roll and i want to watch again . so i do . it would be foolish to discuss the plot for fear that you may miss the pleasure of watch the event unfold and the character develop . this be what great film be all about . i stand and applaud in my home theater when it be over . my wife be watch now and and i can not wait for her reaction and i can not expect it will be anything less than mine .
