Great Tamil Film Scenes - Guna and 81/2
I have always wanted to write about two of my favorite films: Guna (Tamil) and 8 1/2 (Otto e Mezzo, Italian). It is even better that I can largely express what I wanted to write as a video.
Although the subject matter of the two films are by-and-large different, I have felt there are some striking similarities in the symbolism employed in each of the above films. To appreciate (or criticize), one has to watch both films.
I will come back to this in greater detail, later.
