A serious review of an anthology by Tamil Cinema's most brilliant - torch bearers - Wrong timing of release mars a film. Putham Pudhu Kaalai” should have streamed in the 2-3rd lock down (LD) and everybody would have loved it and thanked the brilliant directors. For one it says that after 21 day first LD, all can travel as they please . No E Pass. Cinematic liberty that all viewers would have liked it. What a fantasy !!!
Two is that the humane approach of the elders when their children and grandchildren ( all of them have been leading a self centered life so far) come visiting during COVID time. Instead of shutting the doors on them and being safe, they make kaapi and allow them to share bedrooms - wifi - kitchens. All u need is oximeter - oxy cylinder. no masks gloves etc.
Three - Junkies trapped without stuff would have gone bonkers -If u are deprived of cocaine then sing a Rahman song to wean away from the urge. Coke also brings the best lyrics out and one should have a person with pen and paper to jot it down. Poor Leela Samson - she had only an IPad I guess. Geeks would love it as LD helps them say Love to coke sniffing swinger girl.
Four : Story shuttles between two generation of horny men and woman who are aroused by the LD announcement. Bridging the generation gap in just one episode. Hats off !!!. Looking forward to seeing Capt Gopinath as Dalit crusader on Oct 31.
For those living in the underbelly of society there is an episode that says tamarind rice given free during LD is better than Kodambakkam's fake notes and all the religious channels that predicts miracles during LD. Miracles do happen to Kodambakkam guys in form of notes stashed in car tyres .
A positive note to all directors - producers that nothing is lost. There is always a miracle - some OTT is going to pick up a hustled up stuff made with friends- relatives- hangers on and shot in own bedroom or kitchen and still get paid for it.
