"Paradise Now"


{My movie of the week}
I got a chance to watch an amazing movie "Paradise Now" in UTV world movies, recently.

It's the biggest example how great movies can make you feel for the character who is nowhere near you, and you don’t know about them and you still feel about them. That’s the magic of Paradise Now

It's a 2005 film directed by Hany Abu-Assad about two Palestinian men preparing for a suicide attack in Israel. It focuses on what would be their last days together. story of two young Palestinian men as they embark upon what may be the last 48 hours of their lives. On a typical day in the West Bank city of Nablus, where daily life grinds. Having a bomb strapped to your waist would raise doubts in anyone--and once doubts have arisen, they respond in very different ways.

It's a penultimate message conveyed to any terrorist, to any brain conspiring behind peaceful nation. Everyone talks about terrorism and its aftermaths. Hardly one gets a time to peak into the soul of terrorist, and glance into his insight about world, love and people. Movie is quite special because of the characters chosen, the director, the story line where it takes place. I suggest any movie buff to watch this Arabic genre Paradise Now.
one of the wonderful lines of director Abu-Assad about movie: "The politicians want to see it as black and white, good and evil, and art wants to see it as a human thing."

Most of the time movies are made out of inspiration or adaptation. This movie is made in the place, where the terror has stuck time and again. In the pauses of movie's pace, lot of finer points to unravel and feel. The silence of the characters makes u utter the words they couldn't.Since terrorism is spreading like a octopus around us, it's the time to watch and also I suggest this one to a terrorist before embarking on erasing thousand smiles somewhere.
