Every
decade from the origin of the first Tamil film, “Harishchandra”, started witnessing
changes. There was once popular silent films then came the black and white era,
followed by the colour. The features depicted in films kept changing to suit
the contemporary audience at every point of time.
Centuries after
its emergence, there were queues of films that awaited for its official release.
People were confused and are, at all points in history “what to watch?” Though
the depictions changed in many films but the theme remained unchanged. The oldies
were philosophical and carried a meaning with them but the latest focus on
glamour. It is purely in our hands to select what to watch.
Soon people
showed interest to know the story of films before watching. They started
counting on film reviews. But the oldies lacked this feature as they were
actor-centric.
This
attempt is to look back at the oldies and to understand the real worth of the
film based on the content not in the portrayal. This section would recommend
olden films which would satiate your mind and help you enhance your spiritual
connect rather only on glamour and pleasure.
Have a
meaningful watch!
