Movie Marathon @ January

This month has been a complete movie month, I must have seen a record number of movies and documentaries all through January. And some of these have been very different like 'Exit through the Gift Shop', a documentary based on the life of Graffiti artists. Earlier, whenever I used to see graffiti on the walls through the train window, i never gave much thought to it, it was mere a sign or maybe just something which shouldn't have been there at all. But after watching the movie, my perspective towards it changed completely.

Now, whenever I see graffiti on walls, the first thing which comes to mind is - how the artist must have done it, what time it was painted and by whom. As the documentary itself, revolves around these artists, who do graffiti in the night time to save themselves from police and spend hours together in putting it up all night. And how these artists want to stay anonymous and are doing this just to bring their art to the public.

Besides this, a hindi movie 'Khosla ka Ghonsla', was a pleasant surprise; as i didn't expect the movie to be so realistic. It turned out to be a fabulous movie with a very fresh take on the issue of property, dealt by common people in Delhi. And the performance of all the actors in the movie is commendable too. Though I saw it very late since the time it was released, but I would still say that the movie is a must watch.

The list of movies I saw this month, also includes Dilemma, Yamla Pagla Deewana, Dil to Bacha hai ji (Today), Little Fockers and an enormous number of movies on Netflix.

By far, January has been the month of movies. And of-course, nothing beats a good movie and a bowl of popcorns in winters. Way to go....
