How are you doing? Hope you enjoyed reading last month's post on digital film making and how the accessibility of technology in today's age and time has made it possible for each of us to become digital film makers in our own right.
Earlier last month I watched Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation and I quite loved the kick-ass action particularly the plane stunt pulled off in the opening sequence of the film. Previously, Ethan Hunt scaled Burj Khalifa in Ghost Protocol...remember? I wonder what's lined in the next M:I!Air, building... probably now it's time to expect some mind-boggling action taking place in a submarine in the abyss of the ocean or on Mt. Everest! Concept wise, Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation was both interesting and intriguing particularly IMF shaking hands with Secret Service and Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) meeting the femme fatale James Bond, Ilsa Faust! Actor Tom Cruise never seems to age...he is our good old Ethan Hunt and still packs a punch in all these decades of film business! Who would say that the actor is in his 50's!
Finally we did it....and for those of you who missed the action....let me tell you...it rained Oscars as India hit the Jackpot with a film on India that clinched a record of 8 Oscars!!!
8 Oscars for Slumdog Millionaire...the underdog (I mean the film) that surprised Hollywood with a clear sweep which included Best Picture, Best Director,Best Song, Best Musical Score, Best Editing, Best Sound Mixing,Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Cinematography!!
