The Way Back ...



(Youtube.com)-www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DHsG09e3R6qU

Some people prefer horror movies,some prefer comedies,some prefer Romantic movies.
But..for me ....I prefer the movies with inspirational stories,if they are based on true stories it will be better.Movies blend with real human life is my interest.


If anyone of you have the same interest...or if you too like the inspirational and  realistic movies,
on January 21st 2011,will be a big date on your calender.
"The Way Back" directed by Peter Weir will be released on 21st January 2011.
At the same time this movie will  be very exciting for the people who are the fans of Peter Weir the director of this film.
Though Peter Weir is a Six Time Academy awards nominee,"The Way Back" is the movie that he did after 8 years.


When I watch the trailer of this movie I found out that, it is arousing our curiosity to find out the whole story in this movie.Check this out and see whether "Are you getting the same feeling?"




Most of us have heard a lot of stories about brutal prison camps of the world history. We have seen in other lot of movies the inhuman activities happening in these prisons. But this film is not another film which depicts such scenes.
It is about a group of prisoners who planned and who escaped from a Siberian Gulag.This movie will bring you back to the period of 1940s where the incident has taken place. Most of the parts of the movie has been filmed in Morocco as they wanted to show us the danger and horror in the surroundings of the prison camp.

There are some scenarios that the group is going to be attacked by hungry bears,the growls of hungry animals,their big jaws opening as they want to bite every bit of flesh of these poor people will make you horrified.

These people are being starved,they can't find suitable food to eat,their blood is being sucked by thousands of mosquitoes,when they are crossing the desert they saw water which they have been hunting for days and days....they are walking ,walking and walking towards it....

I am sure as the viewer you are going to plead the god,that it will not be a mirage.

Screenplay writer is getting interacted very well with the audience through these kind of scenes he is making us involved in this journey of escape.The group who escaped hiding themselves in the bushes to avoid to be noted by the public...every moment they are hiding I was scared what if the officers from prison camp catch them...even the death will not be easy for them...

During the movie we also walk across the Himalaya...we can see the pain when their feet's touch frozen ground....and ourselves will feel the same pain.

Beside all of these..the most interesting part is the group is multinational,the way they communicate with each other is quiet interesting.One of them is a Spy,the other one is an American Engineer,another guy is a Russian mobster.You might be thinking this is an odd combination.
                                     Yes....

But it is really interesting to see how this combination has worked out for their escape,their survival and struggle.
So later on though out the  film you will enjoy this combination. The friendship, the unity and the caring for each other they building during the 4000 miles walk. You can see the nature of human relationships through this movie,you can see how they were at the beginning of the journey and what they will be at the end of the journey.


When the people belong to different status,different cultures and different situations and their strengths also different. These different strengths has been gathered and at last it became a unique strength of this group.


Director of the movie as well as,  "we" as the audience are very lucky to have talented actors and actresses such as Colin Farell,Jim Sturgess,Ed Haris and Saoirse Ronan.


At the beginning I mentioned this film is based on true story.So I am sure that you all are interested to know a bit about it.There is a book by the name "The Long walk" written by Slavomir Rawicz.

Actually, the writer has been captured by Red Army 1939 and he escaped from the prison with some other mates.So this is the base of this film.


So ...when you see this movie you will stop complaining about the life anymore...because you will always remember some people had to cross 4000 miles starving and experiencing the adversary of nature.


Hope you will not miss this movie.....
