Dirty Pretty Things 2002 Review

Dirty Pretty Things

Direction: Stephen Frears

Production: Celador Films

Writer: Steven Knight

Dirty Pretty Things is a serious movie without much humor in it.It sketches the life of illegal immigrants in the golden city of London.The way they degrade themselves just to get to live in the 'wonderful' country.I strongly believe that if you make such films you are giving a wrong information about a city in your country.If a little one got a chance to see this movie.He is surely gonna carry the idea that London is the worst civilized city to live.

The main characters of this movie are two illegal immigrants Okwe (played and perfected by Chiwetel Ejiofor) and Seney (Audrey Tautou).Okwe is a Nigerian who drives a cab during the day and as front desk executive at a hotel during night.He chews some leaf (stimulant) to keep him awake.His real story is revealed later in the film that he was a doctor and a good one in Africa and the goodness has made him a wanted man there and so he is living under cover in London.He shares the apartment of Seney who is a Turkish working in the same hotel.Her dream is to go to America where her sister is living.

Okwe one day finds a human heart in the closet and he finds that in the hotel , a greater conspiracy is running in which he is a main part.A mafia is running in the hotel who provides fake passports to illegal immigrants in exchange of human body parts (like kidney).He discuss with his chinese collegue who handles garbages, dead bodies etc in the hotel.The chinese man is in charge of cleaning dead bodies collected from the hotel rooms.His room where Okwe plays chess often is a cold storage cum mortury.

Written by Puja Kejriwal   
Monday, 03 November 2008

SaawariyaDirection:Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Production: Columbia Tristar

Music: Monty Sharma

Cast: Sonam kapoor,Ranbir Kapoor,Salman khan,Rani mukherjee

As soon as Ranbir Kapoor enters young girls started screaming their lungs and show their excitement towards the grandson of Raj Kapoor and lovable son of Rishi Kapoor.Sonam Kapoor is the daughter of all time favourite hero Anil Kapoor and shows her presence as well.All the credit goes to Mr.Bhansali who gave them chance and takes out the inherit talent of them in front of public.From director side story is inspired from  a story "White nights" by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky.Music of the film is also very sweat and melodious and contains many beautiful songs sung by singers like Shaan,Kunal ganjawala.Songs are more based on expressions rather than dances.

Zohra sehgal again proves that she is one of the finest character artists in india,Ranbeer shares some humorous as well as immotional scene with her who lives in her house alone.Rani mukherjee is playing the role of 'prostitute' who teases Ranbeer all time and continuously gives him love tips but she does not want from heart that he should follow wrong path in life.In some scenes she makes audience really thoughtful.
