what movie did you watch i watched the world according to gark ah well i watched a different one let's see if we can match the two reviews i'm sure it'll be the same review uh we reviewed i wait no we we are reviewing uh yeah the review is already done by everybody tallsvar right i believe i believe that's how you pronounce it um it's a 2015 film uh starring earfun con it's more of a honestly it's more of a ensemble piece than just a strict star piece correct but he's he's supporting actually wouldn't you say yeah yeah i'd say so yeah there's really no clear cut star anyway uh directed by say your name directed by uh megan bullsvar we've seen her work multiple times yes uh and uh razi uh adricium and what was what was the other one that was really really good oh yeah uh the most recent one is tripak yeah that's right uh we who we like her every single time we've seen a film of hers she's a really really talented director really good director uh very good director but yeah and you want to read the synopsis for me real quick sure uh i think that's the whole let me see is it the whole thing oh my stars no uh you want me to just read the one sentence synopsis okay yeah i clicked on synopsis and what it opened up was an entire novel an experienced investigator confronts several conflicting theories about the perpetrators of a violent double homicide that is a good synopsis don't you think yes and it was a yeah definitely a murder mystery uh and based off obviously a true story that i'm sure all you know and i'm sure it was like uh in the news all the time something we're going into completely and utterly just not know i didn't know anything right you didn't know anything didn't know a thing about this yeah didn't know a thing about it uh so we are coming in with that so everything we're going to be saying is based off what the film showed us right uh and i and i've done i've done some research since because i was talking with indrani about it and you know she obviously is well aware and was paying attention to the news and what was going on at the time so i i wanted to find out as much as i could and see how much of what the movie depicted was actually what you know how well they did because it's a true story and i always feel that way we talk about that the the accuracy of the true story but even more important i wanted to see um what really happened yeah and this was written produced and composed by the lovely and talented vichal bardoise uh yes the lovely and talented for sure we you know we love him but i did read that he and the director wanted to keep this uh as unbiased as possible they just wanted to present the facts uh and that's what we that's what they tried to put on screen and so i'm sure you all know this story but just in case you don't go watch the film come back yeah here come the spoilers let's go see it and come back i'm assuming you all know about this story so it's like uh it's one of those things but rick initial thoughts well just as a whole let's just talk about because we're going to talk about two things obviously we're going to talk about the film itself and the artistry of the film and then we're going to talk about the bigger more important thing this actual case so as a film i thought i like this as much as i like some of the other films we've seen that are comparable to it like razi like pink like badla that are the the kind of crime dramas that are digestible for a western audience that have a really nice clip that still have the generic indian connection to it but our one of those movies we would easily recommend to friends and family and it's freaking irfan khan what more can you say he's always magnificent always magnificent irfan and uh near near niraj niraj kabi who everything we've seen him in has been super phenomenal uh my respect for him just goes up up up with each new thing we see of him yeah he's so so talented so so uh believable and everything irfan you know you know we love him but he has this way of he's not like he's not a character actor i would not classify irfan as a character but every single one of his character seems different but he doesn't play it that different but they all seem different which is which is quite impressive because normally like i think like actors normally like an irfan who they don't normally change their voice they don't normally go under a lot of uh cosmetics uh i'm like they usually play the same characters and i'm like okay they're good but they're not my favorite irfan has a way of almost playing like he doesn't change his voice or anything like that so that's what i'm saying but all of his characters seem extremely different yeah which is a testament to because i know your preference your personal preference for actors are shape shifters yeah that for you that is the quintessential the ones you respect the most the ones you emulate the actor that you are and you typically aren't as impressed with people so it is a testament and it's a worthy a worthy accolade that you respect and love the guy so much when he is so similar across the board but you're right he's similar but different yeah it's it's it's that impressive because i don't think i've seen that very often if at all in terms of somebody who can do that so it was really impressive i thought his character was really well done i thought a lot of the writing vishal and the other writers gave him was very funny he had a lot of little funny quips like especially with him and his wife like when they were trying to get a divorce uh and then who we should mention those of you know it's of course it's to do who's playing his idea yeah and of course she was amazing uh they're they're just they're they're the onscreen couple they have to be married and yeah exactly they're incredible uh i love that but i did really enjoy this film because it was one like i said coming into it knowing nothing obviously i didn't see any news stories it's not like you know a comparable thing would be like we watched oh not we'd watch but i know the story of oj simpson even though i didn't watch it i know that story and what all happened everybody knows what happened in that story what you didn't see the oj simpson trial series i saw the series yes oh okay okay you mean the actual trial yes i didn't see the actual trial and everything that went down but the all of america saw that uh and and knew what went down and so they had all their their points so i'm just coming at this strictly from a movie basis and we're just i'm just juggling off the film they kept you enticed the entire time i loved how she directed it in terms of when they showed when they thought they had a lead and then they recreated what they thought in their mind was happening and what happened in the murder uh i thought that was really really great in terms of like showing how each the dad killed her and how the dad killed him and how the how the servants friends killed him and so all those different things i like that that they kind of almost framed it in that way and it kept it really interesting because every like 15 minutes it was another lead and another lead and another lead so it's definitely a film that's once like you said very digestible for a western audience you could just sit down and be like this is entertaining i want to know i want to know who did it and they didn't really give you that satisfaction in the end uh no uh they didn't they because obviously this case is not the same i believe the parents are now released uh from jail um because this evidence was circumstantial which in america it's like it's such a foreign concept how you can send somebody to jail when the evidence is circumstantial regardless of if you think they did it or not an american under the law you have to have hard evidence in order to send somebody to jail and convict them it's so it was almost hard for me i'm like wait hold on you just said it's circumstantial but now you're sending them to jail how does that make any sense but obviously the larger picture was them trying to paint a view of a lot of the law enforcement not all i'm not saying obviously we don't know all the law enforcement but a picture of the corrupt law enforcement in india and how he oftentimes sometimes they'll mess up something and then try to cover up their mess ups to fit the picture so they don't look bad as well and so that's obviously the story i felt like they were trying to portray and i thought they did a good job at it i thought it was a really really entertaining film yeah i thought it was a really entertaining film i find it interesting that the circumstantial evidence was enough to put the mom and dad in jail but the circumstantial evidence wasn't enough to put the other guy yeah in jail yeah and i've done it's weird go ahead no i was just gonna say it's weird yeah as is um and yeah we this film could never make a blanket statement about law enforcement uh anywhere in the same way the oj simpson trial doesn't give you a blanket statement about all law enforcement in the united states it was specific to the los angeles police department yeah this is specific to this region yeah i'll tell you this uh if this had been scripted as a fiction for the screen i would have been angry at the writers for making the cops so inept that it was unbelievable yeah right that is how awful law enforcement was at the scene yeah to even even the i wrote down in my notes when it started to rain and wash the blood off the wall it's like you don't even think to check the weather when you have an external evidence area and make sure that the rain doesn't wash the blood off the wall are you freaking kidding me right now the other thing i found out but of the 28 i think it was fingerprint samples that they acquired only 20 uh only two of the 28 were actually usable like the actual they were actually good enough to see and that press family and friends were allowed to be all over the crime scene well before they started doing their investigations and i'm guessing all that is not common practice uh i would hope not man because obviously we i don't know india's uh law enforcement or their proceedings of what in terms of police in terms of the the law itself in terms of prosecution i only know from an americans perspective and a lot of this stuff was just hard to believe that you could get away with it uh from an american mindset and i know obviously different law and different um law enforcement acts different ways around the world right but like one the fact that they could put somebody under to get them to confess uh i don't know what they were putting them under but i was like what i'm yeah i actually i'm pretty sure a lawyer would step in and be like uh no yeah in fact forcibly as well right yeah no that that i looked that up because i was intrigued about this whole narco uh questioning and it's it is legitimately a thing of like truth serum and it hasn't been done in the united states it's just never been admissible in court yeah um so uh yeah the whole prospect of that being something that's done and it not being admissible it was very unusual to me uh as and then when they said uh he asked for his lawyer but they just kept like ignoring it basically in yeah in america when you ask for a lawyer they can't ask you anything else yeah but and then on the other hand since when have we seen in a in a film depicting the police since when has it not been okay for the questioning officer to slap somebody yeah like they kick earphone's character off of the case because the other guy taped him slapping the the the guy who stutters yeah as if that's like the unforgivable sin of in being a but how many how many films have we seen depicting law enforcement and they're and being told that this is the way it works in a lot of the places i'm wondering if a lot of those films depict it and it's like you're not supposed to do this but none of these cops are going to tell on the other one it's kind of like an maybe so i don't know but i thought that was almost one of the genius parts of it because it's one of those stories that's so intriguing because so many things went wrong and so many things were done in properly it's like almost you're watching a train wreck from the police side so many things were done wrong you're like what that's real it's very much it it's a totally different kind of thing but the that level of ineptness and evidence not being like the perfect storm on the law enforcement side screwing it up was very similar to me and reminiscent of what happened to poor marcia clark with her prosecution and the witnesses and the things that happened with her prosecution basically anything that could possibly go wrong for her went wrong and it's a shame because in in court united states court indian court most courts it's not about right and wrong it's about who can prove the evidence it's who can win the the evidential case in the story yeah and it was so weird when they were in court and they were like you can't dismiss this case charge them and the the judge was like i was like what i know what what what are you even talking about you're a judge i know uh so that was that was quite strange um but the uh yeah i thought the film itself was really really really good and and really entertaining um and i i thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed it uh and i would definitely recommend this to people to watch even if you're an american wanting to watch like a uh and it'd be an easy watch i think for most americans absolutely easy watch and i think would be a great introduction one of the first films that you could recommend to american audiences to see in terms of getting an understanding of how much we're similar and also how much we're different in terms of just law enforcement and investigation procedures and but and then ultimately for me i just i couldn't escape i'm sure you're the same i couldn't escape the fact that throughout this story we're dealing with a mom and a dad and a murdered 14 year old daughter yeah and if they're innocent yeah they not only had to go through finding their murdered daughter yep being tried in the media in ways that were character destroying going to jail and having to go through all of the investigative process as the accused and then actually serving jail time and thinking you may be imprisoned for life if they're innocent can you imagine what that was like for them to have to go through yeah because if this if everything like this happened like it did in india but it was in america everything would have been thrown out immediately when i went to court like yeah there wouldn't have been a trial yeah we couldn't have done it because of what the police did like you get they would have been off whoever the murderer was unless they could come up with new evidence would have gone off scott free which is obviously what happened because we don't we still don't know who the murderer was uh it could have been the parents but obviously that evidence uh wasn't there uh but they served time regardless of it um it you don't know if it was the servants you don't know who it was because the they dubbed the uh the i think earphone said it was like they you would have solved this in 15 minutes if you would have done things correctly correct and it would have been here if it had been gone to trial which i agree with you it would have never gone to trial if it had gone to trial you would never get a verdict you'd have a hung jury because there would be so much that they would say we cannot prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this took place with anybody being convicted now when you look at everything as far as the evidences that were there and botched an inadmissible and the narco testing do you have a feeling or a sense or an opinion as to what actually did happen or do you feel you corbin aren't in a position to make a decision as to who you think did it i don't think i am because one also even though i think they tried to be unbiased it was definitely in the the favor of the parents this was told in the favor of the parents uh we just makes it cinematic of course obviously um because you know you're rooting for like how these they just lost if they're innocent you know they just like you said they just lost their kid uh and so obviously i know why they did that um but it was told from even though they tried to say unbiased it was told from a bias i feel like uh in terms of the parents and so i agree i don't know a slight a slight bite i'm not saying it was like totally like they're off scot-free but they uh it could have very well been them i was just presented with the evidence that almost says it obviously wasn't them um and so i don't know i the this one the servant's friends seem pretty likely but i like i said i can't really say why do you have a do you have a theory i had an opinion when it was done that is clearly based on my own bias and i'm certain is based on the slant of the film which was when i the minute the movie was over my feeling was the parents were innocent and the servants uh the young man who they depicted as the potential murderer well was the actual one then when i did research and spent some time and looked at what some of the facts are about everything which by the way they did a pretty freaking good job Vishal Bardwaj did a really good job of presenting to us what we know based on the research that i did granted i just took a day big deal but based on what i saw he did it exceptionally this because too often films depicting true stories give you stuff that didn't happen because they're gonna they're gonna dramatize it for you and and hollywood eyes it you know what i mean and he didn't do that he didn't do that based on what i read and based on what i read and based on what the way the film depicted it i have a very strong feeling a strong opinion i don't say there's enough evidence to prove it but my strong feeling is that it was that young man who was a friend of the servant that it wasn't the mom and dad it was that guy and there's there's stuff there's stuff they didn't put in the film okay that's part of that's part of the evidence that was not submitted but was done by some of the forensics experts that if you look it up and i think one of the reasons they didn't put it in was because of the the um censorship board oh stupid censorship board yeah and based on what i read and but again it's just like i'm confident oj simpson went a hundred percent killed nicole brown simpson no glove didn't fit rick you gotta quit the glove didn't fit it was clearly too small rick you can't wear gloves that are too small and and ron goldman and ron goldman yeah and that was another thing if you guys haven't watched that it's on netflix watch the oj simpson trial they did a and i was there i lived the i lived in los angeles and i was on the phone with my dad multiple times during the case when they read the verdict i followed it like everybody else did netflix did a spectacular job it's a great doing that series great great series great great yeah i i thoroughly enjoyed watching that series just like i thoroughly enjoyed watching this this was a great film yep great movie hats off to the director me uh say her name i don't know how to pronounce it yes i'm looking at it to make sure i don't do it just for memory and butchered uh me getting that bulls are yeah phenomenal job as always i mean everything we've seen her do has been really good work uh and so she's a she's a supremely talented director not that she needs me to say that for her and obviously the entire cast yeah like i i don't think we talked about yeah i didn't like yeah there was some supporting actors that i wasn't fans of but they were on screen for like a couple seconds so i was like yeah whatever throw them away uh other than that it was it was like for the type of film it was trying to be which was like a almost a murder mystery i did a phenomenal job and i i i would recommend this film to uh and visual bard watches um score was perfect because this is the kind of film where you don't want the score to become part of the storytelling you want it to be part of just the background and give you a feeling and i felt like his score was you know like everything the guy does he just knows how to make movies he knows how to make movies yeah it'd be fair to say we love visual bardoche uh anyways uh let us know which film we should watch next down below from hindi uh tollywood colliewood malolium morothy uh psalm uh uh canada yeah canada whatever industry we want to watch good films so recommend them to us down below
