Quintessential classics that have driven cinematography to an Art-form. Directors with epic vision of depicting the highest nuances of human expression on the celluloid screen. Their technique and thoughts have defined and made possible great industries like Hollywood & Bollywood.
While the Academy award winning Scorsese's 'The Departed' owes it to 'Infernal Affairs' from Hong Kong, the turn-around film of Bollywood 'Sholay' was inspired by Kurosawa's 'Seven Samurai'.
But how many of us can truly claim to have seen the original epics in reality and even if we have we have not been able to own it as a part of our precious collection.
Now Palador Pictures is presenting all these classics - legally and for the very first time in India. For, everything said and done, we are the ones who should be responsible enough to save these great works of art and further Indian's cinematic sensibility to newer and more mature levels.
The onus rests upon us. Are you ready to take up the challenge? If you are as passionate as us to further the cause of World Cinema in India. Tell us how you can do your bit and we will provide as much support as we can because we are not here to sell. We are here to change the way Indians look at cinema and make it socially more relevant.
Us being the privileged ones - the onus rests on us. I invite you all to constructively contribute towards a culture & movement for introducing more and more people to the world of cinematic art-form. I am sure the close connect between literature and cinema can make this an enjoyable interaction. Ideas for the same are there - up there - if the lights are on 'upstairs'!
So, are you game?
