Section 375(2019)- Review
Section 375 is a courtroom drama based on, as its name suggests, the section 375 of the Indian Penal Code. The film focuses on a well-known film director Rohan Khurana (Rahul Bhat) who comes to the infamous center stage when one of his subordinates Anjali Dangle (Meera Chopra), an assistant costume designer for his movies, accuses him of rape. Dejected and felling like a victim himself Khurana sees his reputation tarnished leading to a downfall in his personal & professional life while he is arrested and in jail. While in the court of public opinion he is already convicted, senior criminal barrister Tarun Saluja (Akshaye Khanna) still accepts to be his lawyer. Though his task won’t be easy with Hiral Gandhi (Richa Chadda), once his trainee, now the prosecutor and defence barrister of the claimed victim. The film takes us through the events of this case in and out of the courtroom with both counsellors trying their best to prove their client’s innocence.
The Couch ReviewPublished 3 years ago in GeeksWhat I found cool about Disney's "Soul"
You may or may not know that Disney just premiered a new movie to Disney Plus, it's called Soul. Now there has been some controversy about the voices used in the movie and why they didn't have an all black cast. However, I am looking at the movie from a script point of view.

In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.

Trevor WellsPublished 3 years ago in GeeksWhat to say after "I,Tonya"
Yesterday I watched a film that I had heard about and have been wanting to see for quite some time. I, Tonya which is labeled as a comedy, but if it's funny, I would call it dark humor. I didn't think it was funny at all. I thought it was very tragic. There are many videos you can watch on youtube that show the comparisons of the actors portrayals of the characters to the real people they were playing. I watched some of that before I watched the movie to prepare myself for any hoopla that the director might have wanted to do to the audience using sensationalist tricks. I remembered the story of Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan back when I was just starting college in the early 90s. I always loved to watch gymnastics and figure skating in the Olympic games. My good friend at the time was a huge Kerrigan fan, so we were watching the skaters. When Kerrigan got hit, it was huge news for weeks. I was left thinking that Tonya Harding and her clan must have been monsters. After watching the movie, I see that I was almost correct. Her clan were completely monsters, but Tonya was a victim of abuse from family and a victim of the "system" (just like me) being made to believe that she had a fair shot coming from "poor white trash" - when the truth is she was doomed from birth.

Turning away from the destiny-driven, hyper theatrical blockbusters of the 1980s, independent films of the 1990s established a cinematic rebellion that seemed to reflect the cultural shifts of the decade. Thus, Smart Cinema was born.

Annie KapurPublished 3 years ago in GeeksReview of Minimalism: Less is Now
Let me start off by saying the original Minimalism produced by Matt D'Avela is a masterpiece. It's a documentary that I frequently come back to- making it into my yearly habit of re-watching my favorites films. It just speaks on this movement of mindfulness and minimalism brilliantly with the camera angles- the interviews- the content. This paired with Marie Kondo really propelled the less is more movement that blew up on Youtube. Blew up in social circles - it sparked a lot of conversation around "stuff".
