Quite some time before I caught up with 'Nee Thane En Pon Vansantham(NEP)', the Tamil Flick released along Kumki.
Partly flawed, Partly Experimental, Partly mystical, partly magical and partly intoxicating, NEP, subtly nuanced, grows on you as you watch it.
Samantha, dominates the proceedings with an effortless and stunning acting performance. Her emotions magically Cris crosses mischievousness, infatuation, possessiveness, enigma, defensiveness, hurt, blind love and reality disconnect with extraordinary ease.
When she whimpers and collapses into her sister's arm, at the prospect of having lost her love due to her foolishness and vain glorious pride, not only does your heart go out to her, but also you know that there is an extraordinary actress who will essay some unforgettable roles in the future. Watch out for this petite, radiant, glowing and beautiful actress!!!
Maestro's music works, adds to mystic and magic. Cleverly used in the narration.
What made the movie noticeable the first time I got to see the movie was not Samantha'a acting and Ilayaraja's music but an Eureka moment of life when a boy recognizes his responsibilities and is born as a man, every father's prayer and dream. Devar Magan examines this transformation more graphically. The director could not be more closer to reality and not have handled this more subtly. A special thanks to Gautham Menon for addressing a very critical aspect of life.
The first forty five minutes probably in a linear narrative could have made this into a classic.
