It heightens a sense of realism unlike most of his other works which had this certain shock appeal that slightly distanced you from the reality of his settings. The film takes place in real time and is edited in way that makes the long takes look like a single continuous shot which was what Hitchcock initially wanted the film to be. ‘Rope’ is Hitch at it his most daring and experimental as he abandons music, an aspect that made his films so tense and incredibly atmospheric, and shifts to a more visually sophisticated storytelling style. Rope (1948)Īlfred Hitchcock’s infamous experiment didn’t initially sit well with fans and critics but has managed to find a unique place among the many classics he made in his long, prolific career. It lacks the fun and vigour of Woody Allen’s other works but nevertheless it’s a fascinating experiment that manages to resonate with you on many levels. There is no music in the film but Allen carries the weight of emotions with astounding control and remarkable depth. The style and aesthetics here are very Bergman-esque and Allen tones down his famous humour in favour of a more assured, darker exploration of the human condition.

( This review is merely a piece of fiction as transpired in the writer's head. Go kill yourself, now that you have wasted five minutes of your life reading this review. Starring - Akkineni Nageshwar Rao, Akkineni Nagarjuna, Akkineni Naga Chaitanya ( though not in this particular order of lineage ), Samantha, Shriya, Ali, Brahmanandam and a few other people whose names we cant remember. The old and the grand are giving way for the young and new. What happens during the course of the film is a run of the mill drama, the very very routine comedy and a set of tragically predictable incidents. Manam, written and directed by Vikram Kumar and produced by the "Akkineni Family" is the story of a strange set of incidents revolving around a clocktower, a day in February and three men scattered in time with hillarious love stories. This film is no different and no less than a celebration of a family that, at the end of it, declares another heir incumbent much to our moblike audience's thrills. Let us not deny the fact that when the rich and the powerful celebrate, the world watches in awe. But since the plot and the story are quite stupid and unbelievably badly done, we must enjoy this bold projection of one of the five powerful families of our cinema industry.
Manam is a three-tier generational story with several fine layers of near real-life, sub-altern, watch-beyond-the-screen subtextual stories running around the plot. Review Manam & earn 20 DM Points.* Review Submit
