mast qalandar was a saint from the beginning of the 13th century who practised sufism, the system of a mystical branch of islam. mast is the name for someone who is brought into an ecstatic state, engulfed by the rhythm of meditation. passow’s film captures the gathering of approximately one million believers which occurs every year to honour the saint’s encounter with allah in sehwan sharif in pakistan. the film brings stunning images of the essence of the lifestyle chosen by these advocates of mystical islam, so far removed from any form of fundamentalism .

opening with a brief commentary on the history of television transmission in the uk, the film documents the design and construction of the first 1000 foot television mast in mendlesham, suffolk during the hot summer of 1959. following the different stages of construction, commentary explains the logistics of assembling the tallest television transmitter in europe. the labour force and materials employed are featured, including the hereford - based steelworkers, painter bros ltd and the british insulated callender’s construction company. this film documents a landmark moment for the people of norfolk, suffolk, cambridgeshire and essex as the aerial would enable them to receive the new independent television channel that was coming to their region .

synopsis a real adventure film – for the 21st century. on a three - mast schooner packed with artists, scientists and ambitions worthy of noah or columbus, we set off for the end of the world: the rapidly melting massifs of north - east greenland. an epic journey where the brave sailors on board encounter polar bear nightmares, stone age playgrounds and entirely new species. but in their encounter with new, unknown parts of the world, the crew of scientist and artists also confronted the existential questions of life. curiosity, grand pathos and a liberating dose of humour come together in a superbly orchestrated film where one iconic image after the other seduces us far beyond the historical footnote that is humanity. a film conceived and brought to life on a grand scale - a long forgotten childhood dream lived out by grown artists and scientists .
the proceedings are shot with a real feel for locations, from ritzy corners of paris to hospital corridors to the amateur gardens and waterways beyond the capital. the film’s musical score is appealing .

he then went back to his experimentation mode, not caring for the box office success. this is what gave us kaun, mast & jungle. with his lady luck, urmila starring in all the three films there was no looking back for him. whatever the box office verdicts might be, the one thing which was common for these films were the critical acclaim. plus the commendable thing was, all these varied genres films released in a span of 2 years, 1999 & 2000 .
till passow (b. 1969, munich) studied at the rudolf steiner school in munich and the konrad wolf film and television school in potsdam. to date, his most successful film was his third, howrah howrah (2001), which was also awarded a special mention by the fipresci jury at the idfa documentary ff in amsterdam. filmography: my father mrs. hiller (1998), boy racer (1999), adi and the rest (1999), larry wild man fischer (2002) .
this was followed by several movies which introduced the audience to the creativity infact rgv' s kind of films. the films included drohi with nagarjuna again & then raat with revathi, a terrific horror film. both the films were bilingual & both were not successes .

frot and deneuve work subtle wonders with their purpose - written roles. claire’s devotion to her profession is beautifully reinforced by the sixauthentic deliveries captured on film. (with frot positioned for maximum realism, the crew filmed the live birth scenes in belgium since french law requires that a baby be three months old to appear in a film .) there’s a wonderful nuance in the original french title that’s not reflected in the english translation. ‘sage - femme’ does indeed mean ‘midwife’ — but the hyphen dissolves on screen leaving two words that mean ‘wise’ or ‘well - behaved’ woman instead .
daniel dencik is a director, editor, scriptwriter and poet. his editing work includes into eternity (2010), noialbinoi (2001) and five obstructions (2003). moon rider from 2012 was dencik’s debut as a documentary film director. his latest book “via katastroferne” is nominated for the best literature of the year 2012 in denmark .

mr. turner explores the last quarter century of the great if eccentric british painter j. m. w. turner (1775 - 1851). profoundly affected by the death of his father, loved by a housekeeper he takes for granted and occasionally exploits sexually, he forms a close relationship with a seaside landlady with whom he eventually lives incognito in chelsea, where he dies. throughout this, he travels, paints, stays with the country aristocracy, visits brothels, is a popular if anarchic member of the royal academy of arts, has himself strapped to the mast of a ship so that he can paint a snowstorm, and is both celebrated and reviled by the public and by royalty .

the man is not known to back away. the failure of daud didn' t shake him at all. he went back to his roots, came up with the film that went deeper inside the gangster world. with satya, his shiva seemed to be just a showreel. again, he was kept waiting for the box office success but rgv had successfully established himself as one of the best directors in india .
well almost all of them are extremely low budget films. even the movie fails at the box office they' ll earn it through other means. and most of his films get dubbed too. a 10cr film making 2 - 3cr in it' s box office run will not find that tough to make the remaining amount by other means. and also, rgv himself will be one of the producers for his films .
with jungle, he tried to repeat his luck he had in the telugu blockbuster kshana kshanam (his all time best) & forget the failure of daud. after this he went back to his usual gangster drama to give one more superb film, company. after company, he wanted to romance the horror genre again, a genre which he adores. he gave bhoot, one of the most memorable films in the horror genre .

the director rgv, in his prime & his downfall. have a look .
he debuted into bollywood with shiva (1989), the hindi remake of his own telugu hit siva .
post bhoot, his lady luck was replaced. sure he gave few good films here too but the majority ones were just the product of his arrogance. his arrogance to prove he is right & his arrogance to prove that he' s always right. with this came the movie which was made to only showcase antara mali as the next urmila .
but now, it' s not these movies which rgv is remembered for, it' s the wrong movies which he' s forcefully feeding his audience for the reasons best known to him .
good info dude, can u compare rgv & mani urltoken u compared katrina & deepika earlier. .
the plan was to compare rgv, mani & priyadarshan together in this post. but it got lengthier so edited it to only rgv & removed mani & priyadarshan' s hindi career analysis .
i think a director who has seen both sides of the coin but to be honest his poor spell has really over shadowed his good time and now he has completely lost his touch but his films had thst edge which you can ee and say yes this directed by rgv but now he is so down that only a miracle can bring his touch back ...
thanks for sharing this info but one thing i dont understand why people finance his movies knowing that its going to be flop .
so, after rakhtcharitra he was bitten by some bug. . which ate away his brain and made him make craps like shiva, aag and planned to ruin his own films like sarkar, bhoot, satya... i seriously think he had some surgey and his brain was replaced by someone else' s... ! !
his attack' s of 26 / 11 this year was not that bad... but was watchable. ! !
not just the box office, but even the critics reviews say otherwise. it got 1 star rating too & was heavily panned .
rakht charitra 1 got involved in the controversy in ap. it barely managed to break even. phoonk didn' t become a hit in andhra, it was later remade to telugu as raksha starring jagapathi babu & even that was not a success .

, a u. s. merchant marine ship run by captain francis thompson and owned by stewart shipping company, arrives in boston from monterey, california, in record time. under the orders of thompson, who brutally abuses his crew, amazeen, the first mate, who has a blind devotion to his captain, shanghais a crew for the return trip to california. among those kidnapped are hayes, a farmer who was not able to notify his wife and children of his departure, and charles stewart, the spendthrift son of the company' s owner. stewart quickly learns that the men are fed measly rations while the officers eat fresh chicken, and when he discovers a hungry young stowaway, sam hooper, on board, stewart steals food for the boy and himself, for which the whole crew is punished. richard henry dana, the brother of a sailor who died during the

france’s two most bankable actresses - catherine frot and catherine deneuve - give viewers their money’s worth in the midwife (sage - femme) a bittersweet delight written to order for two consummate performers who inhabit their diametrically opposed characters with satisfying élan. already widely sold - although not to us and uk - this tale of a jovially disruptive stab at redemption late in the game of life shows every sign of being another hit - in - waiting for writer - director martin provost (the cesar - sweeping seraphine and the excellent violette) upon its march 22 french release .
claire (frot) delivers babies in a small but busy clinic that operates on a human scale. the facility will soon close and her field - to which she is deeply and selflessly devoted - is being phased out in favour of assembly line birthing technology in state - of - the - art but impersonal hospitals .
an apparently celibate single mother whose son, simon (quentin dolmaire, who made his mark as the young mathieu amalric in my golden days) is in his second year of medical school, claire is a self - sufficient teetotaler who avoids red meat and toes most of society’s lines. by the standards of the woman who’s about to upend her life, she’s the definition of a stick - in - the - mud .
claire lives in a working - class paris suburb and rides a bicycle to get around. coming home after an eventful night of deliveries she hears a voice on the answering machine she hasn’t heard for 35 years: beatrice (deneuve). beatrice says she’s looking for a certain antoine and wonders whether claire is his daughter .
beatrice is an almost comically carpe diem kind of gal whose free - wheeling insouciance is both annoying and infectious. she may be essentially homeless but doesn’t see that as an obstacle to eating well in restaurants or enjoying fine wines. after all, she can always replenish the funds she keeps in a clear plastic sandwich bag by frequenting a fast - paced illegal card game (genuine denizens of this illicit sport make earthy extras) or selling her remaining jewelry from a life spent in the fleeting company of generous gentlemen. she acts like the russian princess she may or may not be .
beatrice doesn’t know that claire’s father - whom the cavalierly adventurous beatrice deserted from one minute to the next - is dead. claire, now 49, was only 14 at the time and more or less forced to be serious as a direct result of beatrice’s devil - may - care attitude. after just a few majestic scenes with beatrice - deneuve does flighty entitlement with convincing glee - claire’s muted enthusiasm about the older woman popping back into her life is understandable .
will these two radically dissimilar women find common ground? and will a rugged but sensitive truck driver (olivier gourmet) play a role in their lives? claire is arguably too well - behaved and spoiled, self - centered beatrice exudes an earthy wisdom ‘born’ of experience. show her a moment and she’ll live for it .
