Some Notes On Entertainment.



Of late I have been watching some good movies in English.I watched,1)Code,The Cleaner,2)Sweet Home Alabama,3)Dark water,4)When Harry met Sally,5)the Pelican Brief etc.Most movies were really good in story line and the Hollywood people do say it straight.

Compared to these movies sometimes I find both Hindi and Tamil movies boring.I have no continuing inclination to watch.Malayalam movies seems to be better that the Hindi and Tamil movies.I am a real Desi Indian as much in love with my country, but we are highly dramatic and unnecessarily lenghthy.These are only my personal comments.

Jayamala.
