After a long time I stayed back home for the weekend,so I thought I would catch up with movies. I like movies which are based on cities and if you have lived in that city you can easily correlate to it. I watched two movies over the weekend one based on the city I lived and other city I am living in.
Madraspatinam:
It was wonderful to see Chennai in 1940's the landmarks like central station, clean koovam etc, I really liked the heroine of the film.
Adrift in Manhattan:
This movie was taken in Manhattan and revolves around three people who take subway number 1. A old man who is turning blind,a woman who lost her child and a shy 20 year old guy who stalks on that woman. It was set during winter and it gave me a heads up how the city will look then.
Though I wouldn't say I really liked the story of these movies ,setting in the city where I live/lived makes a difference.When I see the train passes through 125th Station it gives a I have been there feel and makes you get involved with.Good time pass all together.
