"Happiness is a how; not a what. A talent, not an object."
My week days were so terrific...with meeting deadlines...but this quote always kept me motivated... :)...may be it will do to you too ;)
"You can eat an elphant if you do it one bite at a time. "- Robert Riley
and so....I finished my deadlines..by the end of friday...I could only think of watching a peaceful movie and relax at home ...:) isn't that strange for a person like me ...that too on a friday evening hahaah ...
"Self love, my liege, is not so vile a sin as self-neglecting." - William Shakespear
Well...I decided to watch 'In Custody' starring all great actors..Shashi Kapoor, Om Puri, Shabana Azmi, and the list goes on...its actually based on a novel written by Anita Desai.
"Language exerts hidden power, like a moon on the tides" ~ Rita Mae Brown
But this movie really touched the cord of my heart...how 'Urdu' is fading away...in todays era...infact I always loved this language for its politeness and sweetness...and the poetry...!!!
"Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words." ~ Robert Frost
This movie left a sad thought...but Shashi Kapoor has done such a wonderful job..and I was thinking how come these ppl never got any awards...and ppl like Saif Ali...got National Award...for what.. 'Hum Tum'...damn is it the value of that award degraded or.....!!!!

reminds me of the mallu version... "Meelay tinna mullim tinnaam" ...If you eat slowly you can eat thorns too :))
I have read this book DON though I have seen the movie only partially.
Om Puri & Shashi Kapoor r great actors & I think they have won national award in the era of parellel cinema in the 80's. incidently Kapoor's wife Jenifer also won it for 36 Chowrangee Lane.
As for Saif i liked his acting skills in Hum Tum & Parineeta. Though its true that these awards are not always given on merit only.
