Aval Appadithan, 1978
When we came out of Mekala theatre, after seeing Aval Appadithan in 1978/79 we were stunned.
Rudriah, sets expectations at the beginning of the movie that "This is Cinema". and some where in the background, something to the effect, that, he would not be bothered if his work does not reach the villages/B centres or C centres,
The close up shots are just terrific.
The enigmatic nature of women is an excuse to discuss, not only the nature of woman but also how a common man'perceives and treats a woman.
Sripriya as the bold but enigmatic Manju sizzles. Rajinikanth dazzles, again making us wonder, how we have abused him as a Star. Kamal plays a wonderfully subdued role.
Here is an article written by Baradwaj Rangan on Rudriah, that fills you on one of the most important director of Tamil cinema
