Review of the malayalam film 'Beautiful"

........... SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL ! , IT IS ........




      It is the return of brilliance and team work to Mollywood and this movie definitely will strike a chord with any one who at many points life succumbed to basic human feelings like love, lust, fear, anguish of loss and the magical realm of friendship and the director has nailed it write with the help of eye catching frames a elegant treatment and good performances by the actors.............. ' Beautiful' !..........

    Director V K Prakash is not a novice to experiments. The story revolves around a multimillionaire Stephan (Jayasurya) who is down Paraplegia and destined to leave his entire life on a wheel chair.But still he keeps a smile on his face and enjoys every moments in his on ways. he find a good acquaintance in singer John (Anup Menon) who is later revealed as his school mate. John's soothing voice and songs keep stephan live all the time and at this point enters a new home nurse Anjali (Meghna). The entire plot is well knitted and each character has some depth, be it that of Praveena who appears only in a single scene. There is touch of quality......... Beautiful !............
       
      Focussing the script, a carefully woven one by Anup Menon. With some good one-liners and without any dramatic tone, the dialogues sound good. It has some cleverly written moments in it. for instance to define the meaninglessness of beauty Kamalu (Nandu) is not giving any great explanations, but simply asks Stephan and John to think what will happen if the girl is affected with stomach issues. Some dialogues in the movie like " Marraige is nothing but a license for an extra marital affair" may even amuse some. But there is discipline and hidden brilliance in the script
... Beautiful ! .........

        Overall the movie underlines the fact that Malayalam cinema has to break the mould if it aims to grab the ice. It is not an extra ordinary movie but is .... Beautiful.!...........
