 You got some What does it come clove clove careful one sure? Like clove you do you say this every single time and Johnny gives me one It's not bad. It's more like a red hot than a like a spicy You like red house I can eat some So it's only certain things that well are difficult for you to deal with it depends on how Hot damn you even just chewed it straight up and yeah, it's not bothering you. No, not really a hot and Spicy like hot candies and spicy food are different to me because they affect the different part of them. I get it interesting What about a hot take? What about your hot mom? I know only cold takes Hey, welcome back to our stupid rex of Corbin. I'm Rick and you can follow us on and Ah For more. Well, it's the same. It's true. Oh, dude You can follow us on ah and ah for more more do more book. What that's true That's the truth. Um, I think it was and patreon Yes, one of the other one other day that it was one of the ones that I was really messing with Like this video is just a child messing with his buttons. That's true. Anyways, today. We're doing a movie review And we're doing a review of the new it just comes it comes out tomorrow here It might already be out by the time you're seeing this in India Malayalam film a Tom and we had exposure to this yes Exposure not viewership of it But we've known about this for a while because we it was at the Indian Phil festival Los Angeles actually won the Indian film festival of Los Angeles That back then and maybe we didn't get to stay for the screening No, no, we got a screener for it, which is how we're able to watch it because it's not coming to Los Angeles No comment but The we got it via that way, that's how we're able to watch it it came with Berlin and Joram and those were all part of it and this It's the directed by Ananda Karshi and wrote that as well It's a Tom is the play right essentially what it means right and the cast is It's an ensemble. There's there's being lots of people here It's difficult to call out Yeah, we've seen him a few places as well like there's a lead actress because it's predominantly a theater group of Males with a female. Yeah, so Zarin Shehab is the main actress family man actually Since you just came out we're gonna do non-spoiler review and then if we want to give some spoilers We're gonna get into some spoilers, but we will tell you before we do that just because it's and this will be technically the first 2024 film Yes, that is correct because this technically even though it was at the film festival It's not it's a theatrical release for 2024. So that is correct like a Guess technically Berlin whenever that does I know that also is a 2024, but that's weird because we watched it months ago So it's in theaters right now So if you want to go watch it there go watch it and like your initial thoughts of a time We just are on a roll Right now. Hmm. I can't remember the last time Yeah, it really was But for us as far as the movies we've just watched in a row I can't recall a time in recent memory It's been a while Where we have just gone out of the park out of the park out of the park out of the park This one is a another one. That's just hit out of the park Yeah, I was telling in drunk. I said I've got four movies right now any one of them I want you to watch because it's wonderful Yeah, and this is one of them Incredibly well-written Beautiful work by the ensemble believe every single minute of it the drama the dramaturgy of it Which is a terminology about the actual creation of storyline and plot and how it builds and how it works this thing The pacing on this builds and moves the way a story should and it's a human interest story that I just thought was Superlative have no qualms at all different reasons as far as the winning at the film festival because Berlin is equally worthy of recognition, but I have no qualms of this winning it and We've got another candidate of a film that I think could easily be submitted for international film and in any awards show I love this movie. Um, yeah, it was absolutely fan. It's a heck of a heck of a line It makes me excited for next year's Indian film festival Yeah, this is the quality of yeah film that is consistently getting submitted and these are just the features Yeah, they also do shorts. Yeah do documentaries that we didn't get to see any of them because We were very busy that week and it was we all we didn't actually get to see any films at the film festival Sometimes while they were screenings we were doing interviews. Yeah, so so this is the thing But then they somebody at the festival told me that they actually do send out screeners to critics and I'll say oh, yeah Please do that. That would be wonderful But then since these ones were smaller I decided to wait on them to more when you guys would see them So because a lot of times like when we released Berlin people like oh, I have no idea what this is as Opposed to after the trailers released and people excited. Yeah, that's why I did it anyways But yeah this film so different than Joram and Berlin Yeah, but the play is You know once you see it you'll understand why it's called the play Yeah, man, is it shot like a play like yeah, this really I was thinking about that especially in the last act Yeah, I thought Man, I this would be as gripping and this is gonna be an old reference for those of you who know the play The gripping nature of 12 angry men when it's done appropriately. Yeah, absolutely or inherit the wind Those happen to be courtroom dramas, but it's the it's that The any play that has one location and it's dialogue driven with multiple characters That's the kind of thing this is and it's just and it's shot that way It makes you feel like the editing was so good in some spots It really makes you feel like you're not watching editing it makes it makes you feel like your head turning and looking at people in the room Yeah, absolutely, and He said one look it's not this is not one location. No, no, no, it could be done that way Absolutely, it could be done that way and firm for everybody the It I can't give any spoilers right now. Yeah, but the the story Without giving anything away is very intriguing because it's almost like a knives out who done it on a much smaller scale in terms of Production obviously and and and and I guess steaks. Yeah, and even the steaks the steaks are different, but they're no less important Absolutely. Yeah, but it's it's it's it's like a who done it Just on a small Mali alum scale But it's very Mali alum in terms of if you don't like dialogue driven films You're gonna hate this film. Yeah, that's what this film is That's why this film is as good as it is And if you don't like films that give you the feeling at first that like nothing's really going on Yeah, yeah, and then you realize there was a lot going on and you should have been paying closer attention Yeah, yeah, you can miss stuff. We can miss easily especially with my I said it to my wife when I was watching I was like, I never I love the Mali alum language because it it sounds beautiful, but I've never Heard a language that sounds so much like gibberish to my ears. Hmm. It's a horrible. Oh, yeah Yeah That's Hindi. I feel like it's slower in comparison to a lot of other of the language And I don't know if this has happened to you at this point But it's happening to me now because we watch so many different languages There are times now where I'm watching a film and I'm I'm I'm I Can't I can't remember is that a Mali alum word or is that a damel word? Yeah, or is that a to lugu? Exactly? I'm still I get them. Yeah mixed sometimes. I even don't even know if it's Hindi So yeah, so obviously all the smiley on so all the performances are good and they're all believable. Yes They all do a really really really good job It's hard to pick out one standout because I think they all did a very very good job ensemble work Yeah, if this was a if this was a US film it would be nominated for sags ensemble. Well, maybe oh, yeah The nominating committee smoke and crack these days. I don't know what's been going on with their selection sometimes But in terms of just I think most Mali alum films would yeah, you would hope they're they're just I like that post Poor things wasn't nominated for ensemble. I haven't seen it yet, but that's yeah, that'll that'll boggle your mind Um The posters cool. I just saw it Because this film it talks about so much But you have to you have to listen obviously there's a surface level thing that you can Understand if you just don't think anything else into it but there's so much more going on in this film in terms of what he's trying to say about people about greed about Believing people about lying about about truth about truth about facts. Yeah about judging people and done. It's so well written Mm-hmm in in more amateur hands. These would have just been caricatures and They're not just characters. These these are fully fleshed out human beings everybody coming from a place of Real believable rationales and everybody's saying things that are in alignment with who they are and they're not These are not simple things that people are talking about. There's nuances of complexity. There's Thoughts that people have that have to do with being selfless and caring about the truth But at the same time being protective and wanting to get what they want. It's really really well really really intriguing The cinematography and was the score very very subtle very so because a lot of times I'd say More than 85% of the film is not scored and when it is scored It's just to give you a sense of something. Yeah, it's it's very subtle The score is just done to give you a sense. This is all about dialogue. Yeah, the entire film is He's all about dialogue and in a very different way than say like the most prominent filmmaker in the world for dialogue in the recent years has been Quentin Tarantino, you know, but but Quentin will do Lots of diatribe's lots of pontificating lots of verbosity. This is not that No, this is just like a fly on the wall. Yep fly on the wall conversation Someone says a couple sentences. The other person has a response done The other person has a response and the other person has a response. Some of them make you infuriated. Yeah Yeah, there's so much going on and apparently this is the director's first film shut up He did one short film at least I'm going to be that's what it's showing He did a short film three years ago and this is his first ever film Ever done any other writing things writing. Let's see. He didn't have any other credits Look at that. Good grief. So unless he's just not Listed on I'm not credited. Yeah. Yeah, whatever. Yeah, if this is pretty much a sophomore or or a freshman Wow, and he won the obviously Indian film festival that would be that would be reason That that in and of itself would be reason to see something this Extremely good At the at every level that is this good from somebody who this is either their first or second attempt at filmmaking That is Extraordinary, and yeah, it's absolutely brilliant. I don't know what else to say in terms of wow Non-spoiler stuff. Yeah, we'll get into some spoils here, but just go watch the movie watch it obviously I'm sure it only is getting distribution in Kerala. I Hope other places shame, but if you can and you like this style of film of Litch I'm not even I'm not even Kidding in the slightest dialogue driven films to the fullest You have to like that if and if you've seen our recent reviews You may not have been around for a long time, but thankfully recently if you've seen the reviews that we have done for Katha the core and 12th fail. This is in and Joram. This is all in the same wheelhouse Elevative Thespian attic the kind of movies that we want to be in that we want to show other people This is this is the top of the top except for the white people. They still sucked always. Yeah, what the hell? It's like they just picked up a like a look at tourist. I'm telling yeah, but we know we know we know we know what happens Especially when it's a smaller role the only flaw is it saves them time. It saves the money. We I get it But man it hurts. Yeah, it does But anyways, if you haven't seen it, please go watch it and then come back We're gonna get into some spoils more about the actual stuff that happened in it I can't say anything the non-spoilers because there's just it's too much of a of something going on But spoils boys boys spoil time. Yeah, we got it. Don't we we have a spoiler warning We just did it yesterday. Oh Get spoiled bitch now, you know when you hear that We're gonna talk about the film because we want boiled bitch You want the movie to tell the story? So this is for everyone who has seen the movie. Yeah This It was and I I knew where it was going like right off the bat like not right off the bat like as it went on I was like Okay, so there's something's gonna happen obviously with her right and when she gets groped and I was like this Molly. I'm so I think they're all gonna believe her there. This is a true Actors they're usually very progressive people and very progressive and what the truth matters to leave the woman And I said something's gonna happen though And Right when he called I was like yep. Yep. Oh, I guess the groping wasn't that bad Yeah And then obviously it was like almost like a comedy of errors. Yeah as it went on Not really not comedy. No, no, no comedy But almost something that they were going for of like this is gonna be painful. Yeah, what you're gonna watch Bad You're gonna see a lot of things that are gonna really upset you because now they're trying to justify it and and all that But they made it so complex of like the added twist of the prank. Yeah That added a wonderful True reality because a lot of people in this situation because this is very much a Metaphor for anyone in these kinds of situations and it's not just me too relevant. Yeah It's relevant in a myriad of ways whenever anybody is in a situation where they know what the truth is But then they're tempted. Yep to Bend their moral compass for Reasons that seem Extraordinarily legitimate not just for themselves, but for others so the whole idea of the benefit that was gonna come to the whole troop Took it up to a completely different level now that really begins to show everybody. Okay, how much do you really? Are you willing to sacrifice everything for truth? Yeah, or are you gonna start to make some wiggle room now because There's a lot of money involved There's publicity involved and if you don't think that you if you think you would just be storming through that thing with truth You don't know till you're in it What you're gonna compromise or not compromise and who you're gonna throw under the bus or not throw under the bus Yeah, and I I like it because it made you question Everything even though the one that you for the most part you're like support her believe her and no and then you're like You didn't actually see him the whole you can't even if you don't like the guy No, can't just throw him under the bus the whole time. Yeah, my thought was Bring the guy in yeah, why don't we have them both sit down here? Why are we just assuming? Well in everything she's saying is true. Well in that I understood For the most part for a while is because if he in fact did it you don't want to bring the victim in with the other person Obviously, that's no I didn't mean they had to be necessarily together. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah But it was very believable in the way they did it Yeah, and then obviously a lot of them were supporting her and then questioning and then at certain times that one guy was like It's what you're wearing. I'm like go fuck yourself. Yeah, that was amazing and very true that people would be very believable It's just so many things and they kept going and then it was another guy They're like oh it wasn't because we were all like oh who is it now because they led you to believe That it was a couple different people throughout the thing Yeah, they gave you little hints and always gave you the skepticism of did this really take place because of that Bluetooth connection thing That the guy heard yeah, remember I'm what I I'm wondering if it was that guy Because obviously then they they went back to with the Bluetooth and his phone connected connective, right? And so he My this is my theory. He was watching porn or he grabbed it This saw her grab or was watching porn before got right got horny or vice versa, right saw her Got horny grabbed it and then go to watch the to whack one off basically, right? Um So I think it was him I think that was though that was the hint that I did to that it was him I love that they didn't make it complete. I also really loved two things. I'm sure you love this too. I Love that at the very end It brings us to the stage and we realize we've been watching a play the whole time. Yeah, and I loved I said it out loud to the screen When he was gonna take off his mask and he says don't you want to know I said No, yeah, please say no and a great great writing. She said no because that's the point The point is it could have been any single one of them because none of them cared actually Yeah At the end of it at the end of the day every single one of them has a level of guilt associated with this thing because they Didn't believe her. Yeah, but she also has a certain level of guilt as well But I think everybody has a level of guilt in this I think her biggest thing was the fact that Not only didn't they believe her but they didn't also try to investigate further of who was it. No So if it wasn't him It was one of us. It was somebody she didn't just Hallucinate somebody grabbing her it was somebody here, right? Someone did this who did this But nobody cared and then I think that's why I led her to be like it was you're all the same now. Yeah It was probably all of you and they were really quick to condemn at first based on what they heard and Then the complexity start to come in most especially The profitability of what's about to happen with this guy and do we really want to? Throw him under the bus when we're about to become wealthy and famous doing our play. Yeah It was a and I also thought especially in the beginning the play was shot very well like yeah I was like, oh, is this gonna be the whole thing? It's cool. I thought you put a Excuse me. It's hard to make a lot of your budget. Yeah into the play. Yeah It's hard to make a play the cool-on film, but they did it And so that was another aspect that I thought was really really nice me too really good Yeah, I just thought all of the performances were spot on. Yeah, it's Molly other I expect nothing less. I loved her laughing moment. Yeah, and I loved his response to it I was watching him and I believed 100% He was shocked by her laughing didn't know why she was laughing Just a great believable moment at that time because he didn't know that it was a joke Right, right and so he was still trying to go on the trip. Yeah, you know, we won't go without you Why are you still thinking about going on? Why is that preeminent in your mind right now? And again the complexity So many different motives for so many different people to lie Yeah, that you really didn't know what was going on in the way that things were unveiled and Then you realize that once someone has lied Well, where else are they lying because if they lied somewhere they'll lie somewhere else because there was another moment that I just win The phone came out The key or something the key or the picture of the key. Yeah, the key two of them went outside and said, how does she get that key? They didn't go further into that And he's like if you're gonna look at me, I'm gonna look right right back right back at you They didn't really go into that further, but that was another like was it one of The one of them or maybe I missed something Because I think they wanted you to think it could have been well It could have been any of them and at the boyfriend and at the end of the day Like a lot of these Situations that come up at the end of the day a Woman was groped. Yeah, and We still didn't get to the bottom of who did it and why and how to how to punish the person for doing it Yep, because all of this other stuff got in there So well-written very well-written Heck of a lineup for Indian film festival of Los Angeles looking forward to next year's big time. This is our first year and The three films that we saw and I think those might have been One other one and at this time of the year to watch the films that we've been watching recently that are so good In the process of watching all the other things that are contenders for sags and Oscars So your mind is in that wheelhouse of wow I've just been watching great film after great film not always necessarily There's some things that get nominated that don't shouldn't be in the process because it's political. Yeah Anyways, these are the some of the best films in the world Yeah, let us know you thought about the film obviously if you're here you should have watched it already Yeah, and what should be the next Malia them film that we should watch and what has he got in the hopper? Nothing right now. It's nothing in pre-production or anything good grief. Yeah, let us know down below
