Two Films-Man on Fire and The Bridges of Madison County
I have watched two films over the weekend-one was starring by Clint Eastwood and another one by Danzel Washington and others (there were defintely other great co-actors and actresses, but unfortunately I do not remember their names now, please take no offence guys!).Hey, I know, these are quite old movie, but, remember, most of my movies are borrowed from school library, so don't expect me to write on current releases.
The man on fire is quite famous since when the novel it hit the market. It has been well translated in different languages and recently bollywood also produced a film on its light (the same way as 'the magnificent seven' became bollywood buster movie 'Sholey'). A tough retired serviceman of U.S. was hired as a gunman in a rich family in Mexico. The job is to protect the little girl of the house from kindnapping for ransom which plagued in Mexico in that time. The rough and tough bodygurd develop a wonderful friendship with that little girl and when she was kindnapped, and tough to be killed, Danzel unleased his wrath agains bad guys. Action and emotion packed tense and dynamic story line.
The bridge on the madison county is a romantic film. Clint got a chance here to show that he can come out of that 'cowboy cocoon' if he is asked to do so. This movie will fall in the genre of Tolstoy's 'Anna Karenia' or Tagore's 'Home and Abroad' category. It can also be branded as 'desperate housewives'. See it for yourself to appreaciate soft version of Clint.
