Court won the national award for best film this year .
Yaadirchikam aye ee cinema evvide release undu ennu arinjhapo poyathu annu.
Oru court case annu film.
Narayan kamble is a folk singer who raises social issues through his play . One fine day he is booked by the police under the charge of inciting the suicide of a sewage worker. Kamble de lawyer annu ee cinemayile nayakan ennu parayavnna character. Case inte on going proceedings annu cinema .
Valare subtle ayya treatment annu ee cinemayil ullathu and one could feel that the director didn't take much effort in making it . Its that natural and realistic like you are watching a real life court proceeding and some characters associated with it leading a perfectly normal life . But beneath this delicate texture lies a brilliant screen play and its amazing how the writer-director have woven such hardcore substantial issues with sheer easiness .
For instance the film mock how our legal system could be taken for a ride . Common senseinu nirakatha fake allegation vetchu oru case file cheythu oru individualinte life enghane oru video game pole neeti neeti kalichu kondu povam ennu okke valare detailed ayitu kaanichu vetchitundu . Human rights ennu okke parayunathu etra nisaram ayitu annu nammude systemine fool cheythu suppress cheyan pattunathu ennum .
Mainly cinemayil click avunathu ee randu vashngal anu enkilum vereyum pala complex aya vishyangalum interesting aya kaariyangalum cinemayil kadannu varundu and this is without getting preachy or forced. There is a scene where the hearing of the case of a anglo indian/parsi lady get postponed as her dressing is on the other side of code of conduct of court . Another scene that shows how the innumerable communities in our country get overtly sensitive for no reason as such.
Kamble de rival lawyer oru lady annu. avarude track gives a clear picture of middle class maharashtrian life . Bollywoodil onnum orikalum kanditu ellatha(or pattatha) level authentic ayitu annu athu kaanichitu ullathu.
One scene where she have a discussion with fellow lawyers on monotony of their work is a beauty. Athu pole oru scene where she bond with a random housewife on a suburban train is top class just for the fact that it gives a peak into real mumbai life .Court have a bunch of such beautiful moments throughout and i could go on .
Narrative kurachu slow annu as the film is all about detailing every aspect but still didn't bore me or test my patience.
Technically oru sadarana cinemaku avishyam ulla effects undu ..when the content is that strong one is unlikely to look for rich frames or whatsoever.
Actors ellamvarum give a new definition to subtlety . Actually acting ennu parayan ella....slice of life kind performance annu ellavarum . esp randu lawyers, Vivek gomber and Githanali kulkarni are brilliant .
Chaitanya tamhane is the director . People like him keep indian cinema so alive ..so wanting .
Overall court is a beautiful gem . Very well deserved recognition.
This is the first marathi film that i have watched . Its shame that regional cinema is so so unexplored.
Thanks to multiplex culture atleast eppo ethu polatha cinemakal kaanan avasaram undavndu ello...

Thanks Ballu...
Mammootty can be likened to the purest breed of Red Oak trees- he shall still stand upright, rooted in deep and exposing his ornamental bark in all its glory and charisma.
