Saving Private Ryan

One of the best war histories, "Saving Private Ryan". An humble captain John H. Miller (Tom Hanks) takes up a mission to find one man in the midst of the last great war. Steven Spielberg became the acedamy awards winner for his best direction. This movie takes you allow with the war, the commitment and focus of the soldier, their hard struggle and fight to save one man, 'James'. Tom Hanks at his best again has extactly thought what leadership, command and focus means. A life is no less of any value to live easy. When we live, we need to make our life meaningful in a way that we, EARN IT.

FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH

OM is the direct designation of the self-originating Absolute Truth, the supersoul, and is the secret essence and eternal seed of all Vedic hymns.

"Suta Goswami in Srimad Bhagavatam"

TRUSTWORTHY

He is a true friend who does not forsake us in time of need, misfortune, famine, or war, in a king's court, or at the crematorium.

--"Chanakya"--

EQUANIMITY

One who constantly dwells upon his misfortune loses all enthusiasm, mental equilibrium, and bodily strength. In this way he meets total defeat in life. On the other hand if a distressed person remains fixed and undisturbed, he can easily regain his position when the next opportunity arises.

--"Bhisma said to Yudhishtira in MAHABHARATA"--

Forrest Gump

Oscar and academy award winner, Tom Hanks' BEST EVER Performance is Forest Gump. The power of will and determination can even turn a handicap child to join the army and be titled for the medal of honour. Forest Gump is a life journey of a little boy who makes miracles come true in his life. The truth of originality of character can be highly evident. The best care of his mother makes him educated and been taught to live independent. The beautiful little girl, Jenny, becomes his first love and the love forever. This is a beautiful movie that talks about every walk of life of a man, Forest Gump.

Enjoy watching it.

Happy Feet

I should admit this animation movie changed my mind set that animation movies are for kids. This is a wonderful story of a baby penguin which is different from the general fleet of penguins which didnt know to walk properly and didnt know to sing. But yet it makes its weakness as a big difference and wins the heart of a love, proud parent and the fleet by saving its entire community. 'Mombo' never gives up, he keeps his esteem, he lives is life with all the difference.

I admire 'Mombo'. And its a lesson for parents to accept their child as they are.

I should also admit that this movie is very very special to me and unforgetable.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

This is one of the best comedies of 1963. Its again about a treasure chance and how people bog behind money. A comedy quiet nice to watch and enjoy.

The Great Escape (a true story)

I just film a trailer of the movie again here. The below movie is the motorcycle chance of Steve McQueen. Later it was found, the escape attempt in the camp led to invention of safety and ventilation systems in mining. I became very emotional on watching this film. One should definitely watch to know what fight means to live.

The Great Escape

This is a true story from World War II. This movie of 1963 is a heart-touching film. It is about the PoW captives in a german camp who where torchered and starved in the prison. It was one of the greatest mass escape attempts so far which happened. We could learn, how under limitation of resource, the american war prisoners used the abilities to engineer the mining of a tunnel as an escape route out of their camp and from their trying to escape from germany to their home country. This movie teaches on how to view and handle situations. Confidence and courage on reality. A persistance and constant will to keep the efforts going. Steve McQueen, wonderfully played his role, and the only one who knows what isolation means and how was the feeling when he almost fell on the borders of swizzerland, yet returned as captive to the prison camp. This is a MUST SEE movie.

The Good The Bad and The Ugly

This is one good old hollywoods i would like to watch. Definitely a good film to watch and should know for first few minutes there is no one who would talk in the movie. Its a hunt for treasure and good english and civilization that we could learn. I think i learnt my first slangs from this film too ;). If you should get a chance, you should enjoy watching this movie.

300

'Spartan' known to be the finest soldiers of the ancient world who stand and live to dignity. "300" is a story of 300 spartans stand alone to fight against a million persians to defend their homeland. I should say, the graphics really cutting-edge and though the movie seems to be highly beyond human and superfical, its nice to watch. 'Spartans', the war heros, a movie with true action.

The Terminal

I'm a great fan of Tom Hanks. This movie, 'The Terminal' is a sensational movie, a simple honest gentle who lives to keep his promise. It is a story that could allow us to think on us and how we could bring our life to live, under any circumstances. A movie i always like to watch.

Blood Diamond

A movie made fantastically, Blood Diamond is 'Bling Bang', which credentials are 'bling bling' to Leonardo DiCaprio. I should say, this movie is one of the best movies of Leonardo DiCaprio and well directed movie. I should say, its one of the best pictures that should be watched. Blood Diamond, is a pack of emotion, action, love and social problems. I wish you should make a chance to watch this movie, that would make you move.

Motivation, a management lesson

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to hiscustomer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you." The barber puts a five rupee coin in one hand and two one rupee coins (1+1=2) in the other, then calls the boy over and asks,"Which do you want, son?"

The boys face lights up, he takes the two one rupee coins and leaves. "What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!" Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.

"Hey, son! May I ask you a question?Why did you take two one rupee coins instead of the five rupee coin?"The boy licked his ice cream cone and replied,"Because THE DAY I TAKE THE FIVE RUPEE COIN, THE GAME IS OVER.
