Our Picks from Q1 2014 : Tamil Films
In Kollywood, the beginning of the year (marked by big releases in Pongal & smaller ones over the course of Feb and early March) usually sets the tone for the reminder of the year as films to be released later in the year will only be at pre-production at that time & some huge successes early on can set the tone for those units at work. The quarter usually culminates rather dull owing to its incidence with Board & College exams but that is only for a brief period before the next quarter begins with the holiday season
Virumaandi (Tamil, 2004)
'Virumaandi' is effectively a point where 'Devar Magan' meets 'Rashomon' with Kamal Hassan blazing guns in all arenas supported ably by impeccable performances from the cast! A rare film in its breed which preaches non-violence!
Naan Sigappu Manithan (Tamil, 2014)
A gripping emotional drama, with exceptional performances by the lead and supporting cast, spiced up by some brutal sequences set amidst an unusual & disturbing subplot.
